Solution Healthcare

Solution Healthcare is a home care agency based in Reading, 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 Reading 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 mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Solution Incorporated. The agency has been registered since June 2023.

Solution Healthcare 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.
