The Oyster Live in Care Company

The Oyster Live in Care Company is a home care agency based in Maidenhead, in the Slough council area, 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 Maidenhead 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 and people with a physical disability. The agency has been registered since July 2025.

The Oyster Live in Care Company 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.
