Mental health care in Edgware

There are 14 mental health care services in Edgware registered with the Care Quality Commission. 3 carry a published CQC rating, and 3 of those are rated Good or Outstanding. The other 11 are unrated, which usually means they have not been inspected since registering rather than that anything is wrong. Privately arranged care is quoted by the hour, and the Homecare Association puts the minimum a provider must charge in 2026-27 at £34.42, or about £481.88 a week for two half-hour visits a day. Adult social care in Edgware is arranged by Barnet, which paid providers £19.00 an hour in 2023-24, the 22nd lowest of 150 councils in England and 10% below the £21.19 median. That is 14 of the 21 home care services in Edgware. Registration sets what a service is allowed to provide. It does not say how well it does it, so read the inspection report and ring two or three before you decide.

Mental health care in Edgware: questions people ask

How much does mental health care cost in Edgware?
None of the 14 services in Edgware publish a price, so you get a figure by ringing them: most quote by the hour after an assessment. 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. Barnet paid £19.00 an hour for the care it commissioned in 2023-24.
Will the council pay for mental health care in Edgware?
Barnet 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 £19.00 an hour in 2023-24, the 22nd lowest 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 mental health care services in Edgware are rated best?
3 of the 14 services in Edgware carry a published CQC rating and 3 of those, 100%, are rated Good or Outstanding. None is rated Outstanding. A rating describes the service on the day it was inspected, so check the report date as well as the word.
Is Edgware well served for mental health care?
14 of the 21 home care services in Edgware are registered to support this, 67%, against 59% across England. That is better served than most places. Registration is permission rather than specialisation, so it sets the size of the list rather than its quality.
How do I choose a mental health care agency in Edgware?
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. 11 of the 14 services in Edgware carry no published verdict at all, so for those the questions are the only evidence you have. Every service here comes from the public register, and contacting one costs nothing: we take no fee and no commission.
