Springboard Business Centre

Springboard Business Centre is a home care agency based in Middlesbrough, in the North Yorkshire 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 Middlesbrough office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is registered to care for older people and younger adults. It is run by Ms Beverley Harker. The agency has been registered since November 2014.

At its latest inspection, published March 2018, the CQC rated Springboard Business Centre 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.

Springboard Business Centre has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in North Yorkshire with a rate on record typically charge about £31.44 an hour and £1,504 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.

There are 154 registered home care agencies in North Yorkshire. Others working the same area include BPJ Case Management Limited, Town Close and Abbie Udall Associates Limited. A self-employed carer found through PrimeCarers charges £18 to £25 an hour, and live-in care typically about £1,120 a week across England.
