Oak Homecare

Oak Homecare is a home care agency based in Exeter, in the Devon 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 Exeter office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people, younger adults and people with a physical disability. The agency has been registered since September 2023.

Oak Homecare 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.

Oak Homecare has not published its rates and we are still collecting figures for Devon. Across England agencies usually charge £26 to £36 an hour for visits and £1,200 to £1,750 a week for live-in care. Ask for a written price list that shows the weekend and bank holiday rates and the shortest visit they will do.

There are 140 registered home care agencies in Devon. Others working the same area include Estice Limited, 31-32, Southernhay East and Platinum Living Devon Ltd. A self-employed carer found through PrimeCarers charges £18 to £25 an hour, and live-in care from about £1,120 a week.
