How this ranking was built

  1. Overall CQC rating. Outstanding ranks above Good.
  2. Domain strength. How many of the five inspection domains, safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led, are rated Good or Outstanding.
  3. Recency. A more recently published rating carries more weight, because it reflects the service closer to how it is now.

Showing 10 of 78 home care in Liverpool that currently hold a published Good or Outstanding rating, out of 136 registered in total. Services with no published rating are excluded: newly registered services often have none, and no rating is not a poor rating.

Based on Care Quality Commission data published 01 July 2026, used under the Open Government Licence. No provider has paid for a position on this page, and none can.

About home care in Liverpool

Home care, which CQC registers as a domiciliary care service, means carers coming to you rather than you moving into a care home. It is the most common form of paid care in England.

What it covers

  • Personal care: washing, bathing, dressing, toileting, continence support
  • Medication prompting or administration
  • Meal preparation and help with eating
  • Help getting up in the morning and to bed at night
  • Moving and handling, sometimes with two carers
  • Shopping, laundry and light housework
  • Companionship and help getting out

Typical shapes

Visiting care. Anything from one call a week to four calls a day. Shorter visits cost more per hour because travel and scheduling costs do not shrink.

Live-in care. A carer lives with you. Priced weekly.

Overnight care. Either a sleeping night, where the carer sleeps but is available, or a waking night, which costs considerably more.

Respite. Short term cover so a family carer can have a break.

What it costs

See our full breakdown of home care costs per hour. In short, expect quotes at or above £34.42 an hour, higher for evenings, weekends and two-carer visits.

Who pays

Choosing an agency

Check the CQC rating and read the actual report, not just the headline word. Then ask:

  • How many different carers will we see in a typical month?
  • What happens if a carer is off sick?
  • Are visits at fixed times, and how much do they slip?
  • What are the charges for evenings, weekends and bank holidays?
  • What is the minimum visit length?
  • How are missed visits handled and refunded?
  • What is the notice period?

Continuity is the thing families complain about most and ask about least.

Home care in Liverpool: common questions

How many home care are there in Liverpool?

136 CQC-registered home care have a registered office in Liverpool, North West. Of those, 78 currently hold a published Good or Outstanding rating, which is the pool this ranking is drawn from.

Who pays for home care in Liverpool?

That depends on your finances, not your postcode. Above £23,250 in capital you normally pay the full cost. Below £14,250 your capital is ignored. Your council carries out the financial assessment, and NHS Continuing Healthcare pays in full where needs are primarily health needs. 2026/27 thresholds for England.

Does a Good rating mean the service is good today?

It means it was rated Good at the last inspection, and the gap between inspections can run to years. Use the rating as a starting point, read the full report, and visit in person before deciding.

What is the difference between home care and live-in care?

Home care is visits, typically 30 minutes to a few hours, at set times of day. Live-in care means a carer lives in your home and is available around the clock. Live-in care is priced weekly rather than hourly and becomes competitive once you need very high hours of visiting care.

How much does home care cost?

The Homecare Association calculates that providers in England need £34.42 an hour for 2026/27 to pay staff legally and run a compliant service. Councils pay an average of £25.05. Private quotes commonly sit at or above the minimum price.

Carevo does not inspect or endorse services. CQC ratings change between inspections. Check the current rating on the CQC website and read the full report before deciding.
