About Lindcare

Lindcare provides support to people in their own homes across Huddersfield and the Kirklees area. We work with older people and younger adults, people living with dementia or a mental health condition, people with a learning disability or autism, people with a physical disability, people with a visual or hearing impairment, people managing an eating disorder and people dealing with alcohol or drug misuse. Visits cover personal care, support with medication, meals and drinks, help around the house and with shopping, and support to get out to appointments or into town. We agree the shape of it with the person, and with family where they want that, then adjust it as circumstances change. Our most recent inspection by the Care Quality Commission rated us requires improvement overall. We would rather say that plainly than leave you to find it somewhere else. We know which areas were raised, we have work under way, and we will go through the detail with anyone considering us or already using us. Families trusting a stranger with a relative's care deserve straight answers far more than they deserve a polished paragraph. What we can commit to is being clear about what we can and cannot do, telling you promptly when something has gone wrong, and saying so honestly if we think somebody needs more support than we are the right people to provide. Please get in touch if you would like to discuss care at home in Kirklees.
