Unity Health Care Solutions

Unity Health Care Solutions is a home care agency based in Hexham, in the Northumberland council area, 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 Hexham 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, people with mental health needs and people with a sensory impairment. The agency has been registered since January 2022.

Unity Health Care Solutions 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.
