“The minimum hourly fee rate for local authorities and NHS of £28.53 allows for compliance with the new National Living Wage (£11.44) in April 2024 and the delivery of sustainable, good quality, regulated home care services.”
This is just a minimum. Visiting Angels prides itself on being an absolute top private home care provider. We are carer-centric. That means that we look after our carers so they will keep working for us. The care industry has a turnover of people of about 60-70% whereas Visiting Angels only has 15-20%. That means consistency and continuity of carers and care. Happy carers means happy clients.
