Superior Healthcare

Superior Healthcare is a home care agency based in Whitstable, in the Kent 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 Whitstable office, which is our estimate rather than something the agency has told us. It is part of The Superior Healthcare Group, which has 2 branches in England. The agency has been registered since November 2018.

At its latest inspection, published August 2023, the CQC rated Superior Healthcare 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.

Superior Healthcare has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Kent with a rate on record typically charge about £25.50 an hour and £1,375 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 383 registered home care agencies in Kent. Others working the same area include CCK Support Ltd, MyLife (Kent) and Canterbury, Herne Bay and Whitstable, 3 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.
