About Foos Care

We at Foos Care are proud to be a trusted home care agency supporting individuals across London and the wider borough of Haringey. Our mission is simple: to bring compassionate, professional care directly into the homes of those who need it, allowing people to remain where they feel most comfortable, surrounded by familiar memories and the community they love. Operating throughout the N postcode area and beyond, we deliver care across the diverse neighbourhoods of Haringey. Because our support is provided in your own home, the environment remains entirely yours. We adapt to your routines, your preferences, and the rhythm of your household, rather than asking you to adjust to ours. Whether you live in a quiet residential street, a high rise apartment, or a family home filled with generations of memories, our team brings the care to you, with respect for your space and your way of life. Our specialisms reflect the breadth of needs we are equipped to meet. We provide thoughtful Older Person Care for those who simply need a helping hand to maintain their independence, alongside specialist Dementia Care for individuals navigating memory loss and cognitive change. For families touched by Learning Disability or Autism, we offer patient, person centred support that recognises every individual's unique strengths and preferences. We also assist adults living with Physical Disability, those with Visual or Hearing Impairment, and Younger Adults who benefit from tailored support to live fuller, more independent lives. In practice, this means our care is never one size fits all. For a person living with dementia, it may involve gentle prompting, a calm familiar voice, and consistent routines that bring comfort and reduce anxiety. For someone with a physical disability, it might mean discreet, dignified help with personal care, mobility, and the practical tasks that make daily life flow smoothly. For families, it means knowing that a knowledgeable, kind professional is stepping into your loved one's home with genuine warmth and a clear understanding of their needs. We work closely with relatives, keeping communication open and honest, because we believe families are partners in care, not bystanders. We are pleased that the Care Quality Commission has rated us Good overall, following their inspection in September 2022. This rating extends across every domain assessed: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led. For families, a consistent Good rating across all five areas offers meaningful reassurance. It reflects that our care is delivered safely, that outcomes for those we support are positive, that our team treats people with kindness and dignity, that we respond thoughtfully to changing needs, and that our leadership upholds the standards that matter most. Choosing home care is one of the most personal decisions a family can make, and we understand the weight of that choice. If you are exploring options for yourself or a loved one in London or across Haringey, we warmly invite you to get in touch. We are here to listen, to answer your questions without pressure, and to help you find the right path forward, whatever that may look like for your family.

Frequently asked questions

What is CareAssura?

CareAssura is a free online directory of every CQC registered care home, nursing home and home care agency in England. We bring CQC ratings, detailed provider profiles, fees guidance and independent information together in one place so families can search, compare and shortlist care with confidence. Whether you are planning ahead or arranging care urgently, you can explore options by location, care type and specialist need, then contact providers directly once you have found the right fit.

Is CareAssura free to use?

Yes. CareAssura is completely free for families and individuals looking for care. You can search, browse full profiles, compare settings side by side, read reviews and make enquiries at no cost. The service is funded by care providers who choose to enhance their own listings, so families never pay to use it.

Are all care homes on CareAssura CQC registered?

Yes. CareAssura only lists care settings registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC), the independent regulator of health and social care in England. Every profile shows the provider's most recent overall CQC rating of Outstanding, Good, Requires Improvement or Inadequate, along with the individual ratings for safety, effectiveness, caring, responsiveness and leadership where these are available. This lets you judge quality at a glance and explore the detail before you visit.

How do I find a care home near me?

Enter a town, city or postcode in the search bar on our homepage and we will show the care settings nearest to you. You can then filter by care type, by CQC rating, and by specialist needs such as dementia, respite or learning disability support. Each result links to a full profile with photos, facilities, fees guidance and contact details, so you can build a shortlist and reach out to the providers that suit your situation.

What is the difference between a care home and a nursing home?

A care home, sometimes called a residential care home, provides personal care such as help with washing, dressing, meals and daily living, alongside companionship and activities. A nursing home offers all of this plus qualified nurses on site around the clock, so it can support people with complex, ongoing or changing medical needs. If you are unsure which is right, the care types listed on each profile show exactly what that provider is registered to deliver.

When does someone need a nursing home rather than residential care?

A nursing home is usually the right choice when someone has medical needs that require regular attention from a qualified nurse, for example complex medication, wound care, PEG feeding, or conditions such as advanced dementia, Parkinson's or the later stages of a long term illness. Many people move from residential to nursing care as their needs increase. If a needs assessment identifies a primary health need, you may also be eligible for NHS funded nursing care or NHS Continuing Healthcare.

How much do nursing homes cost in England?

Nursing home fees vary by region and by the level of care required, and are typically higher than residential care because of the round the clock nursing provided. As a general guide, weekly fees often range from around £950 to £1,600 or more. Where a registered nurse is needed, the NHS may contribute a weekly Funded Nursing Care payment towards the nursing element. Our Funding Calculator and FNC Calculator can help you estimate likely costs and any support you may receive.

What is a home care agency?

A home care agency, also known as a domiciliary care agency, provides trained carers who visit a person in their own home to support daily life. This can range from a short daily visit helping with washing, dressing, medication and meals, through to several visits a day or live in care. Home care helps people stay independent in familiar surroundings for longer, and like care homes, agencies in England are registered with and inspected by the CQC.

Is home care cheaper than a care home?

It depends on how much support is needed. For a few hours of help a week, home care is usually more affordable than moving into a care home. As needs grow towards several visits a day or live in care, the cost can become similar to, or higher than, residential care. Home care also lets a person keep their own home, which many families prefer. We list CQC registered home care agencies so you can compare local options and their ratings.

How do I choose a good home care agency?

Start by checking the agency's CQC rating and reading its profile and reviews on CareAssura. Look at the range of support offered, whether they can provide consistent carers, how they handle medication and emergencies, and whether they cover your area. It helps to write down the specific tasks and times you need, then speak to two or three agencies to compare their approach, availability and fees before you decide.

Can I start with home care and move to a care home later?

Yes, and many families do exactly that. Home care is often the first step, increasing as needs change, with a move to a residential or nursing home later if round the clock support becomes necessary. Because CareAssura lists residential, nursing and home care providers together, you can plan the whole journey in one place and keep your shortlist updated as circumstances change.
