The Angels on Call

The Angels on Call is a home care agency based in Boston, in the Lincolnshire 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 Boston 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 and people with a sensory impairment. It is run by Ms Tanya Michelle Gostelow. The agency has been registered since November 2016.

At its latest inspection, published February 2022, the CQC rated The Angels on Call 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.

The Angels on Call has not published its rates and has not yet told us what they are. Home care agencies in Lincolnshire with a rate on record typically charge about £26.12 an hour and £1,460 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 118 registered home care agencies in Lincolnshire. Others working the same area include Care Plas Services Ltd, Lincolnshire Domiciliary Care Agency and Good Companions Spalding Ltd, 2 of which have a rate on record.
