About Alina Homecare
Alina Homecare Guildford is a home care agency supporting adults in their own homes across the town and the surrounding area. The people we work with are a wide mix: older people and younger adults, people living with dementia, adults with a learning disability and autistic adults, people with a physical disability or a sensory impairment, people managing a mental health condition and people affected by alcohol or drug misuse. Because that range is broad, we match care workers to people deliberately rather than filling slots on a rota, and we train for the situations they will actually meet. Half an hour of personal care in the morning and a visit that is mostly about structure and a reliable presence through a hard week are not the same job, and treating them as though they were serves neither person. Support is agreed with the individual and with anyone they want involved, written in plain language and revisited as circumstances change. We keep visiting teams small so that people are genuinely known. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are arranging care at home locally, please get in touch. We will be honest about what we can do and about where somebody else would suit you better.
