Learning disability care in Teignbridge: questions people ask

How much does learning disability care cost in the Teignbridge council area?
Agencies in the Teignbridge council area quote by the hour after an assessment, so there is no single price. The Homecare Association calculates that a provider needs to charge at least £34.42 an hour in 2026-27 to pay careworkers the statutory minimum for all their working time and run a compliant business. Two half-hour visits a day at that rate is roughly £481.88 a week. Devon paid £26.00 an hour for the care it commissioned in 2023-24.
Will the council pay for learning disability care in the Teignbridge council area?
Devon can arrange and fund care after a needs assessment, which is free and which anyone can request. What you contribute depends on a separate financial assessment. It paid providers an average of £26.00 an hour in 2023-24, the 11th highest of 150 councils in England. The Homecare Association's minimum sustainable price is £34.42 for 2026-27. Those are different years, so treat the pair as context rather than a like-for-like gap. What a council pays shapes which agencies will take council-funded work at all.
Which learning disability care services in the Teignbridge council area are rated best?
15 of the 15 services in the Teignbridge council area carry a published CQC rating and 15 of those, 100%, are rated Good or Outstanding. 2 are rated Outstanding, the top grade: Shared Lives South West and Westcountry Case Management Ltd. A rating describes the service on the day it was inspected, so check the report date as well as the word.
Is the Teignbridge council area well served for learning disability care?
15 of the 37 home care services in the Teignbridge council area are registered to support this, 41%, against 54% across England. That is less well served than most places, so widening your search may help. Registration is permission rather than specialisation, so it sets the size of the list rather than its quality.
How do I choose a learning disability care agency in the Teignbridge council area?
Start with what the regulator publishes, then ask what it cannot tell you: who would actually visit, whether it is the same carer each time, what happens when that person is ill, and how long a call really lasts. Every service here comes from the public register, and contacting one costs nothing: we take no fee and no commission.
