About us
Welcome to Care UK
Care UK is a leading independent provider of health and social care. Working in close partnership with Local Authorities, PCTs and SHAs, the company draws on over 25 years of experience to provide tailor-made service solutions including residential, community, secondary and primary care.
Care UK operates over 50 nursing and residential homes for older people and we provide over 120,000 hours of care and support every week to people in their own homes. We offer supported living services for people with learning disabilities or mental health needs. We operate a range of specialist children’s services including residential care and fostering.
In the health sector we are the largest operator by far of independent sector treatment centres in the UK and we are very active across a wide spectrum of primary care services. We operate GP practices, NHS Walk in centres and GP out-of-hours services, and we operate highly innovative Clinical Assessment and Treatment Services (CATS).
Today one in five people in the UK population has access to one of the many Care UK facilities. We currently serve all of the Strategic Health Authorities, we work with one in three PCTs and we provide social care and support services to over half the commissioning Local Authorities.
Fulfilling Lives
At Care UK we see the world through the eyes of our service users and customers and we recognise that for our service users, quality of life is as important to them as the care they receive.
For the older people we care for we recognise that we can improve the quality of the life they lead by being attentive to their individual needs and by helping them to stay as active as their health allows them.
For the younger people we support, we recognise our responsibility to give them the best possible start in life.
In our healthcare activities, we take primary and secondary care services closer to where people live, and where people work, enabling them to get on with their daily lives. We improve their speed of access to care and the efficacy of their care, to help them lead fuller lives.

Helping Change People's Lives
At Care UK we provide care and support for over 3,000 people in more than 50 nursing & care homes. Every week we provide over 120,000 hours of support to people in their own homes.
