About Sygmacare
We provide care at home in Ipswich and the surrounding parts of Suffolk. Those we visit include older adults, people living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people living with sight or hearing loss, and younger adults. Care at home works when the detail is right. Which arm goes into the sleeve first. Whether the tea comes before or after the tablets. Whether somebody wants conversation first thing or would rather not be spoken to until they have properly woken up. We write these things down, pass them between carers, and follow them, because getting them wrong quietly undermines everything else however well the tasks were completed. Where somebody has a sight or hearing impairment we agree at the start how we will announce ourselves and how we will communicate, and we keep to it. A carer who walks in and simply starts talking has already made the visit harder than it needed to be. Our overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We take it as a baseline rather than a credential, and we would rather a family rang us about something small in the week it happened than saved it up.
