Standards Care Ltd

Standards Care Ltd is a home care agency based in Southampton, registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide personal care to people in their own homes. It most likely works within about 9 miles of its Southampton 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 mental health needs. Its website lists hourly visits, live-in care and 24-hour care. It is run by Standards Care. The agency has been registered since March 2026.

At its latest inspection, published June 2022, the CQC rated Standards Care Ltd Requires improvement, which means the CQC found the service was not performing as well as it should and told it how to improve. Ratings can change after a new inspection, so read the CQC report before you decide.

Standards Care Ltd has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Southampton with a rate on record typically charge about £26 an hour and £1,450 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.

On how it works, the agency says: 24/7 on-call and 7 years operating. Details like these come from the agency's own website and change, so confirm them when you call.

There are 83 registered home care agencies in Southampton. Others working the same area include Threefield House Southampton, Snowflake Healthcare Ltd and Daily Comfort Healthcare Ltd, 4 of which have a rate on record. 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.
