KEPA Care Solutions Limited

KEPA Care Solutions Limited operates from Suite D in Rochester, holding CQC registration as a home care agency, within the South East region. The service is directly accountable to the Care Quality Commission for the quality and safety of the care it delivers.

A home care (domiciliary care) agency sends trained care workers into people's own homes to help with the practical tasks that make independent life possible — washing and dressing, medication prompts, meal preparation, continence care, and companionship. KEPA Care Solutions Limited is registered with the Care Quality Commission for the regulated activity of personal care, which means its recruitment (including DBS checks), training, care planning and complaints handling are all subject to inspection.

Home care ranges from a single 30-minute visit each week to several visits a day, overnight support, or full live-in care. The defining principle is that care is built around your routine rather than an institution's: a good agency will assess you at home, write a care plan with you and your family, and review it as needs change. For many people home care is what makes the difference between staying in a familiar home and moving into residential care.

The registration covers more than one service type — home care and supported living — which is common where one location houses complementary services under a single provider.

The CQC's most recent recorded check of this location took place on 4 August 2025. Inspection reports are public documents, and the official record for this location is linked in the registration section below — reading the latest report is the single most reliable way to understand how the service performs day to day.

Home care agencies declare to the CQC which groups of people they are trained and organised to support. This matters practically — dementia care and end-of-life care, for example, require distinct training and rostering. The register lists KEPA Care Solutions Limited as providing care for:

Sensory impairments

Registration for sensory impairment means the service has declared competence in supporting people with sight or hearing loss: communication adjustments (BSL access, deafblind manual, large print), environmental design, and staff awareness that prevents sensory loss being mistaken for cognitive decline.

Caring for adults under 65 yrs

Registration for working-age adults signals a service oriented around different goals than elderly care: maintaining employment and family roles, rehabilitation and independence, and care plans built around an active life rather than primarily around frailty management.

Dementia

A dementia registration means the provider has declared — and is inspected on — specific competence in dementia care: staff trained in communication and distress-reduction techniques, environments designed to reduce confusion, consistent staffing to preserve familiarity, and lawful use of the Mental Capacity Act when decisions must be made for someone who cannot make them alone.

Learning disabilities

Providers registered for learning disability support are expected to work to national standards emphasising choice, community participation and the least restrictive support possible. Look for evidence of communication tailored to the person (easy-read, Makaton), annual health checks facilitation, and positive behaviour support in place of restrictive practice.

Mental health conditions

This registration covers support for people living with mental illness — from anxiety and depression through severe and enduring conditions. Expect staff trained in mental health, risk assessment and crisis planning, and joint working with community mental health teams and, where relevant, the Mental Health Act framework.

Caring for adults over 65 yrs

The service is registered to care for older adults, which carries practical expectations: staff trained in frailty, falls prevention and pressure-area care; environments that accommodate reduced mobility; and care planning that accounts for multiple long-term conditions and polypharmacy — the norm rather than the exception over 65.

Physical disabilities

The service is registered to support people with physical disabilities, implying accessible premises and equipment, moving-and-handling trained staff, and care planning that maximises independence — including aids, adaptations and coordination with occupational therapy and wheelchair services.

Treat these declarations as the service's public promise — inspectors check against them, and you are entitled to ask exactly how each one shows up in staffing and daily practice.

Exact availability varies by location — treat this as the typical scope of a home care agency and confirm specific treatments directly with KEPA Care Solutions Limited before attending.

Personal care

Support with bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting and continence — delivered with dignity in your own home, at times that fit your routine.

Medication support

Prompting, assisting with or administering medicines according to the level agreed in your care plan, with records kept for every visit.

Meal preparation and nutrition

Shopping, cooking and support at mealtimes, including monitoring for weight loss or swallowing difficulties that need escalation.

Domestic support

Housekeeping, laundry and shopping — the tasks that keep a household running safely when mobility or energy declines.

Companionship and social support

Regular visits that reduce isolation: conversation, accompanying you to appointments or activities, and keeping family informed.

Respite for family carers

Planned cover that lets an unpaid family carer rest, work or travel, from a few hours to full temporary care packages.

Dementia care at home

Care workers trained in dementia support, consistent rostering to preserve familiarity, and structured communication with families.

Live-in and overnight care

A care worker present in the home overnight or around the clock — the main alternative to a care home for people with high needs.

End-of-life care at home

Palliative support coordinated with district nurses and hospice teams so people can remain at home in their final weeks.

Arranging home care with KEPA Care Solutions Limited starts with a phone call and leads to a home assessment: a senior member of staff visits, discusses what support is needed, checks the home environment, and produces a care plan and weekly cost. Reputable agencies never quote a final price without assessing in person, so treat the first call as a conversation about needs, availability in your postcode, and timescales rather than a booking.

If council funding may be involved, the sequence matters: ask your local authority's adult social care team for a needs assessment first. If you qualify, the council either arranges care itself or gives you a personal budget/direct payment you can spend with an agency of your choice, such as KEPA Care Solutions Limited. A financial assessment (means test) determines what you contribute. If you fund care yourself you can approach the agency directly and start as soon as they have capacity.

Ask three questions before signing: Will we have a consistent small team of care workers? What happens if a care worker is off sick or running late? And how quickly can the care plan change if needs increase? The answers reveal more about an agency's quality than any brochure.

Home care in the UK is typically charged by the hour, with regional variation — and shorter visits cost proportionally more per hour. Live-in care is priced weekly. Councils publish the rates they pay, but self-funders often pay somewhat more; always get the full rate card including evening, weekend and bank-holiday uplifts, travel charges, and the notice period for ending care.

Funding help exists on several routes: local-authority funding after a means test (savings thresholds apply in England), NHS Continuing Healthcare for people whose needs are primarily health-driven (fully funded, no means test), and Attendance Allowance or Personal Independence Payment, which are non-means-tested benefits that can offset care costs. Age UK and Citizens Advice both provide free help navigating these systems.

You will find KEPA Care Solutions Limited at Suite D, Cliffe House,Anthonys Way, Medway City Estate,Rochester. The ME2 4DY postcode places it in the ME2 district of Rochester, and entering the full postcode into a sat-nav or maps app will route you precisely — or use the Google Maps link for this exact location.

If you are travelling by public transport, plan the last leg around the postcode rather than the service name — journey planners resolve postcodes far more reliably. Arriving by car, check parking arrangements when you book: town-centre services often rely on nearby public car parks, while suburban and residential locations usually offer on-site or on-street options.

Accessibility needs are best flagged in advance: step-free access, hearing loops, interpreters and longer appointments are all reasonable adjustments providers are expected to accommodate under the Equality Act, and a note on your booking makes the visit run as it should.

Registration with the Care Quality Commission is what permits this service to operate. What helps you choose is everything the regulator publishes about it afterwards.

The CQC inspects against five questions — is the service safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led — and publishes its findings. For KEPA Care Solutions Limited, the registered provider is KEPA Care Solutions Limited. The most recent recorded check took place on 4 August 2025. The official CQC record for this location carries the current registration status, ratings where awarded, and every published inspection report.

Reading a report efficiently: start with the well-led section (it predicts everything else), then safe. Look at the direction of travel across the last two inspections rather than a single snapshot, and treat "requires improvement" with a credible action plan differently from the same rating with repeated findings. If anything in a report concerns you, raising it with the service directly is both fair and revealing — well-run providers answer plainly.

Rochester has 114 CQC-registered healthcare providers in total, of which 40 are home care agencies — so genuine comparison is possible before you commit. The full Rochester directory and the local home care listing let you shortlist alongside this profile.

There are 40 home care agencies serving Rochester, and the practical differences between them are large. Shortlist by CQC report first — read the safe and well-led sections, which cover recruitment checks and missed-visit handling. Then interrogate logistics: does the agency actually have capacity on your street at the times you need, will visits be delivered by a small consistent team, and how does the office communicate with families? Finally, check the contract for minimum visit lengths and cancellation terms before committing.

How quickly can home care start?

For self-funders, care can often begin within days of the home assessment if the agency has capacity in your area. Council-funded packages take longer because a needs assessment and financial assessment come first — ask your local adult social care team for current timescales.

Will the same care worker come each time?

Good agencies roster a small, consistent team rather than a single individual (to cover leave and sickness) — ask how large that team will be and how often it changes. Consistency should be written into the care plan for dementia care.

Can home care replace a care home?

Often, yes — multiple daily visits, overnight support or live-in care can support high levels of need at home. The tipping point is usually night-time needs and safety; an honest agency will tell you when residential care would serve you better.
