About Forest Homecare

Forest Homecare Suffolk provides support in people's own homes in Sudbury and across Suffolk. We work with older people, adults living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities and autistic adults, people with physical disabilities, people with visual or hearing impairment and younger adults. Home care is done on somebody else's territory, to their standards rather than ours, and we recruit and train with that firmly in mind. The practical work matters, personal care, medication, meals, mobility and keeping a household running, but so does the manner in which it is done. Before support begins we take proper time to work out what would genuinely help, what a person would rather manage themselves and how they like things done in their own house. Then we build a small, settled team around them, because a familiar face at the door changes the whole feel of a visit. For people living with dementia that consistency is the single most useful thing we can offer. Where somebody has a sensory impairment we adapt how we communicate and leave the home exactly as they expect to find it. Where we support autistic adults, people with learning disabilities and younger adults, the emphasis shifts to enabling rather than doing, and we plan around work, college and family life. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are considering care at home in Suffolk, we are glad to come out and talk it through with no obligation.
