Ocean Healthcare

Ocean Healthcare is a home care agency based in Newton Abbot, 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 Newton Abbot 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 physical disability, people with a learning disability or autism, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Taher. The agency has been registered since April 2021.

At its latest inspection, published January 2023, the CQC rated Ocean Healthcare Good, which means the CQC found the service performing well and meeting its expectations. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.
