Care Sector Insurance Built for Every Type of UK Care Provider
Care isn't one industry, it's many. A 60-bed residential home faces different risks than a small domiciliary service, a children's home, a fostering agency, or a self-employed carer working with one client. We arrange specialist care sector insurance for every type of UK care provider, with policies shaped around the specific risks, regulations, and responsibilities of your service.

What Is Care Sector Insurance?
Care sector insurance is a specialist type of business insurance designed to protect UK care providers including residential care homes, domiciliary services, supported living providers, children's homes, fostering agencies, and self-employed carers against the unique risks of delivering care. Most policies combine public liability, employers' liability, abuse cover, professional indemnity, medical malpractice, property cover, and business interruption into a single package shaped around how your service actually operates. Care insurance in the UK is built around the regulatory framework (CQC, Ofsted, Care Inspectorate), the safeguarding responsibilities you carry, and the real-world risks of looking after vulnerable people.

Why Choose Artemis
When buying care sector insurance in the UK, you've got three main options: go direct to an insurer, use a comparison site, or work with an independent broker. On price they can look similar, but what you actually get and what happens when an abuse allegation, CQC issue, or major claim lands couldn't be more different.
A comparison site shows you the cheapest price. An independent broker like Artemis does neither; we look at how your practice actually works, compare the whole UK market, and build cover that fits. You get the right protection, a real broker to call when a patient complains, and someone on your side when it's time to claim.
