CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
Run by Coverage Care Services Limited, Briarfields is a residential care home in Shrewsbury, Shropshire with 43 registered beds. CQC registers it to look after older people, people with dementia, younger adults and people with a sensory impairment.
CQC rated it Good overall and in all five key questions in January 2019. Its rating before that, in August 2016, was the same. CQC hasn't re-rated the home for over 5 years, like 53% of homes in Shropshire. Here is how rating age varies by council.
None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Coverage Care Services Limited runs 10 care homes, and all 10 rated are Good or Outstanding. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in January 2026. That is true of 91% of homes in Shropshire. In Shropshire, 80% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%).
