No Place Like Home

No Place Like Home is a home care agency based in Faversham, in the Kent council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 6 miles of its Faversham office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people and people living with dementia. The agency has been registered since June 2013.

At its latest inspection, published April 2019, the CQC rated No Place Like Home Outstanding, which means the CQC found the service performing exceptionally well. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
