Restcare Limited

Restcare Limited is a home care agency based in Harlow, in the Essex 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 Harlow 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 and people with a sensory impairment. Its website lists hourly visits, live-in care, respite care, hospital discharge and end of life care. It is run by Restcare. The agency has been registered since November 2021.

At its latest inspection, published April 2023, the CQC rated Restcare Limited 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.

Restcare Limited has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Essex with a rate on record typically charge about £27 an hour and £1,675 a week for live-in care, so expect a figure in that range and ask for a written price list that shows weekend and bank holiday rates.
