About Kingdom Health
Kingdom Health is a home care agency working in Shrewsbury and across Shropshire. We support people in their own homes, which for most of the people we visit is where they want to stay and where they feel most themselves. We work with older people and with younger adults, including people living with dementia, people with a mental health condition, people with physical disabilities and people with a visual or hearing impairment. Visits can be brief calls to help someone start or end the day, support with medicines, meals and personal care, or longer periods of company and practical help. What each visit covers is agreed with the person, and with family where they want them involved, and we revise it as needs change rather than sticking to a plan that has quietly stopped fitting. Shropshire is a large county with a lot of rural ground, and we plan our rounds realistically so that calls happen when we say they will. If we are running late, we would rather ring and say so. We have not yet been given an overall rating by the Care Quality Commission. Until we have, we would encourage anyone considering us to ask us plainly how we recruit and train our carers, how medicines are handled and what happens if a visit is missed. We are happy to answer. If you would like to talk through what support could look like, please get in touch.

More about the care at Kingdom Health
Dementia Care at Kingdom Health
Good dementia support at home tends to rest on familiar faces, steady routines and carers who notice small shifts before they become crises. Kingdom Health is registered to provide dementia care, though the Care Quality Commission has not yet inspected and rated the service. Families should ask how the agency keeps the same carers going in, since unfamiliar people at the door can unsettle someone with dementia. It is worth asking how carers are trained to respond to distress, repeated questions or refusal of personal care, and how they work with family when someone starts leaving the house at odd hours or forgetting meals. Ask too how the plan is revised as the condition progresses, and how the agency liaises with the GP, community nurses and any memory service already involved.
Home Care at Kingdom Health
Home care is support brought to someone's own front door, arranged as short calls or longer visits depending on what the person needs that week. Kingdom Health in Shrewsbury is registered to deliver this across Shropshire, covering personal care, help with medicines, meals, and time spent simply keeping someone company. Private rates in the West Midlands generally fall between £26 and £31 an hour, while Shropshire Council may fund care for people it has assessed as eligible, sometimes through a direct payment. Because the agency has not yet received a CQC rating, families should ask directly how carers are recruited, trained and supervised, and how the agency handles running late on rural rounds. It is also sensible to ask how the visit plan is reviewed when someone's health changes.
Older Person Care at Kingdom Health
Day to day home care for an older person in Shrewsbury often means a morning call to help with washing and dressing, a prompt or hand with medication, something warm to eat, and a bit of company before the carer moves on. Kingdom Health is registered with the Care Quality Commission to provide this kind of support, though it has not yet been given an overall rating. Families weighing it up should ask plainly how visits are rostered, whether the same small group of carers comes each week, and what happens if a regular carer is off sick. It is also worth asking whether night calls or twilight visits are offered, and how medication is recorded between visits. Typical home care rates across the West Midlands sit at around £26 to £31 an hour, with Shropshire Council funding packages it has assessed as eligible.
Mental Health at Kingdom Health
Stability at home often matters as much as clinical treatment for an adult living with a mental health condition, and steady visits can help hold a routine together. Kingdom Health is registered to support people in this group across Shropshire. Families should ask how carers are matched, what training they have in mental health awareness, and who to contact out of hours if someone becomes unwell between visits.
Visual and Hearing Impairment at Kingdom Health
Small habits make a real difference when someone has sight or hearing loss, from announcing yourself on arrival to keeping items in the same place after a visit. Kingdom Health is registered to support people with visual or hearing impairment in their own homes. Ask how carers are briefed on a person's specific loss, whether they are comfortable with hearing aids and communication preferences, and how written notes are shared with someone who cannot easily read them.
Younger Adults at Kingdom Health
An adult under 65 receiving care at home usually wants support that fits around work, study, family or a social life, not a schedule built for someone thirty years older. Kingdom Health is registered to support younger adults alongside its older clients. Ask how visits flex around evenings and weekends, whether carers will support community activities or appointments, and how goals around independence are written into the plan.
Physical Disability at Kingdom Health
Support at home for a physical disability can span help with transfers, personal care, medication and the practical business of getting out of the house. Kingdom Health is registered to provide this kind of care. Ask how carers are trained in safe moving and handling, whether they will work alongside existing equipment such as hoists or profiling beds, and how visits are timed around therapy appointments or continence routines.
