Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Answers to the questions we hear most from families arranging home care for the first time.

Is Eastdale Healthcare regulated by the CQC? ā–¾
Yes. Eastdale Healthcare is registered and regulated by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), the independent regulator of health and social care in England. This means we are inspected against national quality standards and are required to demonstrate safe, effective, caring, responsive, and well-led care. You can verify our registration on the CQC website.
What areas do you cover? ā–¾
We are based in Kettering and provide home care across Northamptonshire and surrounding areas. This includes Kettering, Corby, Wellingborough, Northampton, Rushden, and nearby towns and villages. If you are unsure whether we cover your area, please call us and we'll be happy to confirm.
How quickly can care start? ā–¾
In most cases, care can begin within a few days of the initial assessment. If there is an urgent need — for example, following a hospital discharge — please contact us directly and we will do our best to arrange support as quickly as possible. We understand that care needs can arise suddenly, and we are set up to respond promptly.
Are your carers DBS checked and trained? ā–¾
Yes. All Eastdale Healthcare carers hold an enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) check before they begin work. Every carer is also trained to the Care Certificate standard — the national benchmark for health and social care workers in England. We invest in ongoing training to ensure our team is skilled, confident, and up to date with best practice.
How much does home care cost? ā–¾
The cost of home care depends on the type of support needed, how many hours per week, and the time of day visits take place. We provide a clear, personalised quote following the free home assessment, with no hidden charges. Some individuals may be eligible for local authority funding or NHS Continuing Healthcare — we can advise on this during the assessment.
Will I always have the same carer? ā–¾
We aim to provide consistency by assigning a named carer to each client wherever possible. We understand that continuity matters — particularly for older adults and those with dementia or anxiety. Having a familiar face builds trust, and means your carer gets to know your routines, preferences, and personality over time. We will always notify you in advance if a different carer needs to cover a visit.
What our clients say

Trusted by families across Northamptonshire

5/5 from 8 reviews

"The team at Eastdale has provided me with excellent service over the last few years. They helped me with taking me out shopping twice a week and with anything else I needed around my home. The carers were always very professional, always having a smile on their face. Communication with the office team was easy and they always tried to accommodate any requests I had. All in all the staff were a pleasure to deal with and the provided care was second to none. I would recommend Eastdale to anyone who needs care themselves or for a loved one."

"Eastdale Healthcare looked after my Mum Carol before she went into a care home. That standard of care was second to none. All the carers that came to visit were so professional and caring. My mother looked forward to them coming so that she could chat with them and talk about the day. It would also help me feel that she is safe knowing she is in good hands with the staff of Eastdale Healthcare. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a secure loving care for your loved one. Regards, Simon. "

"The care team at Eastdale Healthcare have been so supportive with caring for my mother on a daily basis. The carers are all very friendly, courteous and helpful with the care they provide. This gives me peace of mind that their visits provide company and support in whatever she needs when the family are unable to be there. She looks forward to speaking to the carers during their visits. They kindly keep me in the loop as to how she is if there are any problems. I would highly recommend Eastdale Healthcare."
