What home care costs in Rochester

Visiting care typically costs £22–£30 per hour across the UK. That’s a typical range, not a local quote, so ask each agency for a written quote. For context, Medway council’s published cost-of-care rate was around £875/week (2025). Your home isn’t counted in the means test while care is provided there. Medway council carries out the free care needs assessment.

Care-home figures are the average advertised private weekly fee across AskBart’s listings (Rochester within ~5 miles; Kent county-wide); actual fees depend on the home, room and level of care. Home-care figures are typical UK estimates — we don’t yet hold verified local agency rates, so they aren’t shown per area. Always get written quotes.
