Tackling Care Worker Visa Rules UK 2025: Solutions for London's Crisis

The UK’s Care Sector Is Changing - Fast


In July 2025, the UK government rolled out major immigration reforms that shook the foundation of the country’s care workforce — especially for providers who rely heavily on international staff.


Key Change: Care workers on Health & Care Worker visas can no longer bring dependents, and employers must meet stricter salary and compliance rules.

This means that for care homes in London, already struggling to meet demand, the pressure just got very real.



What’s Happening?



According to the Migration Advisory Committee, 58,000+ overseas care workers were recruited in 2023 alone — and many of them helped fill vital roles in elderly care, dementia support, and supported living. With the new rules in place, that pipeline is drying up fast.


⏱️ Shift cancellations are rising

📉 Staff burnout is worsening

💸 Agencies are hiking prices without improving service
