About Affinity Homecare

Affinity Homecare Shrewsbury supports people in their own homes across Shrewsbury and the surrounding parts of Shropshire. We work with older people, adults living with dementia, those managing a mental health condition, people with a physical disability, and people living with a visual or hearing impairment. We also support younger adults who need help at home. Every arrangement begins with a proper conversation. We want to understand how somebody likes their day to run, what they still manage perfectly well themselves and where a hand would genuinely make a difference. That becomes a written plan in plain language which our carers follow and which we revisit as circumstances change. Visits can cover personal care, help with medication, preparing meals, household tasks, shopping, getting to appointments and simply spending time with someone. Shropshire is a rural county and getting out to the shops, to appointments or to see people is often as important as anything we do indoors. Continuity matters a great deal in home care, so we keep the team around each person small. A familiar face at a predictable hour is worth far more than an efficient rota, particularly for someone living with memory difficulties, and familiar carers notice when things are different. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch to talk things through.
