Cera is a digital-first home healthcare company that delivers care, nursing, telehealth, and repeat prescriptions. Cera’s mission is to empower people to live longer, better lives in the comfort of their own homes, saving the need to go to the hospital.

Cera has grown 100-fold in less than three years - making it one of the fastest-growing businesses in Europe.

Cera’s team of carers and nurses have delivered 25 million at-home care visits, to over 15,000 patients a day, on behalf of 300 NHS and Local Governments - equivalent to 40 hospitals or 1,000 care homes. Cera licenses its technology to more than 2,000 businesses nationwide.

Cera was co-founded by entrepreneur, physician, and policy expert Dr. Ben Maruthappu MBE, and its advisory board is chaired by Sir David Behan, the former CEO of the Care Quality Commission.

Cera’s tech and network have been recognized by industry awards including Deloitte Fast 50 (#8 in 2021, #26 in 2020), Sunday Times Fast Track, and Home Care Awards’ Most Outstanding Home Care Provider. Ben was named a finalist in Ernst & Young’s Entrepreneur of the Year Awards 2021.
