About Afya Care

We are Afya Care, supporting people in their own homes across Bristol and South Gloucestershire. We work with older people and people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people managing a mental health condition, people with a physical disability or a visual or hearing impairment, and younger adults building independent lives. Given that range, we do not offer one standard package. We visit first, talk properly with the person and with family where that is wanted, and agree what the support should genuinely cover. It might be a single call each morning, several visits a day covering personal care, medication, meals and household tasks, or support that is as much about routine and encouragement as anything practical. We are careful about who goes where, and we keep those arrangements steady. Knowing the face at the door matters to nearly everybody we visit, and for some of the people we support it is the difference between accepting help and turning it away. Our carers are trained for the work they are sent to do and properly supervised, and the office is reachable when a family needs to speak to somebody. We liaise with GPs, district nurses, community teams and social workers. Please call us to talk things through.
