The agency has been registered since January 2011.

At its latest inspection, published October 2018, the CQC rated Silva Care Limited 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.

Silva Care Limited has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in South Gloucestershire with a rate on record typically charge about £28 an hour and £1,613 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.
