About Homecare
Homecare Ipswich provides care and support in people's own homes across the town and the surrounding parts of Suffolk. Our purpose is to make home a place where somebody can be properly looked after, whatever their circumstances. We support people living with dementia, where familiarity and an unhurried manner do more good than anything else we could offer. We work with adults who have a learning disability or autism, where communication suited to the person, a dependable routine and support that builds skills rather than replacing them make the greatest difference. We support people living with mental health conditions, where a steady, trusting relationship and staff who notice early changes matter most, and people with physical disabilities, helping with personal care, mobility and getting out into the world. We support people with a visual or hearing impairment, adapting how we announce ourselves, speak and explain, and we support people living with eating disorders and people affected by alcohol or drug misuse, without judgement and at the pace they set. We keep the team around each person as small and consistent as we can manage, because relationships do the real work here. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please get in touch and ask us anything you need to know.
