Northern Healthcare Head Office

Northern Healthcare Head Office is a home care agency based in Manchester, in the Salford council area, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 16 miles of its Manchester office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, people living with dementia, younger adults, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Northern Healthcare. The agency has been registered since July 2018.

Northern Healthcare Head Office has not yet received a CQC rating. This is normal for a newly registered agency; the CQC usually inspects within its first year or so.

Northern Healthcare Head Office has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Salford.
