Wisdom Support Services Ltd

Wisdom Support Services Ltd is a home care agency based in Sidcup, in the Bexley 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 Sidcup 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. It is run by Wisdom Support. The agency has been registered since February 2015.

Wisdom Support Services Ltd 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.
