 Covering North, Mid and East Devon, Ark Nursing & Care Agency supplies nurses and auxiliary care workers to an extensive variety of locations. We work with the NHS, Social Services, private Care Homes and individual families, and are proud of the strong and enduring partnerships we have built along the way.

From humble beginnings employing just 3 care staff and 2 office staff in 2002, Ark Nursing & Care Agency has blossomed thanks to the excellent reputation every single member of staff has worked so hard to achieve. We are now a vibrant and proud employer of over 50 invaluable care staff who regularly win our “Making a Difference Award”, two Directors, our in house Clinical Care Lead, a Deputy Manager, a dedicated Accounts Department, a Care Co-ordinator and administrative staff.
