Care, done the way we'd want it for our own families

Medicare People connects families with exceptional live-in carers, and care providers with the nurses and carers they rely on.

Our story

Why we started Medicare People

We began in 2025 as a healthcare staffing agency, supplying nurses and carers to care homes and hospitals across the South East.

Again and again, our nurses told us the same story: older people staying in hospital or moving into care homes because there was no one to support them at home. So we brought what we'd learned about finding, checking and supporting brilliant carers to families directly.

Today we arrange live-in care across Surrey, Kent and Sussex, and supply compliance-checked staff to care providers, all managed through our own platform, Sync.

Medicare People currently provides introductory live-in care services. We have submitted our application to the Care Quality Commission (CQC) and intend to introduce a fully managed live-in care service following registration.
