Bariatric conditions refer to health conditions in which an individual's weight significantly exceeds the recommended amount, impacting their daily life.
In recent years, from 2022 to 2023, 64.0% of the adult population aged 18 years and above in England has been identified as overweight or living with obesity. These conditions can place considerable strain on one's physical health, potentially leading to other medical issues such as diabetes, heart disease, and joint problems.
The term 'bariatric' specifically refers to the medical treatment of obesity and strategies to improve the quality of life for people with obesity. Managing a bariatric condition requires comprehensive care and support, including medical, nutritional, and physical assistance, as well as emotional and psychological support. For many, living independently becomes challenging, necessitating home care services that can provide daily support and encourage adherence to treatment plans.
"Working with Tiggo Care, I've helped many people feel comfortable and secure in their own homes. It's all about making daily life easier. Seeing them smile, knowing they're looked after well—that's what keeps me going every day."
Bariatric home care offers compassionate, specialised assistance tailored to meet the needs of those whose weight significantly impacts their daily life. Carers are skilled in assisting with everyday activities, such as mobility, personal care, and medication routines. Moreover, bariatric home care can help people adhere to nutritional planning with carers preparing meals that align with health guidelines and personal preferences.
Each aspect of a care plan is designed to encourage self-reliance where possible while providing necessary support in areas where the client is struggling on their own. In London, Tiggo Care’s services ensure that your loved one receives attentive, person-centred care right in the comfort of their home, promoting both physical and emotional wellbeing.

Our home care service is based on personal experience

At Tiggo Care we understand how precious your loved one is to you and how unique they are. We also appreciate how overwhelming it can be to research and source the most suitable type of care.
We fundamentally believe that there is no ‘one size fits all’ care package and like to work with you and your loved one to understand your specific requirements. We’ll then create a tailored care package and match your relative with their ideal carer.
Unlike some other care providers, we are fully regulated by the Care Quality Commission. This means we are regularly inspected, rated and audited to ensure we are a safe, effective, caring, responsive and well led organisation, committed to delivering the best possible care.
We’re also proud members of the Homecare Association, the U.K’s membership body for home care providers, which holds organisations to a high set of standards and requests them to abide by a strict code of practice
At Tiggo Care, all of our carers undergo a rigorous recruitment and induction process. They are fully vetted and background checked, with all references followed up. Our carers undertake their training on the best eLearning system currently available within the UK care market, ensuring they are well placed to deliver the best possible service. Specialist training courses such as moving and handling, medications and basic life support are also completed by our carers face to face, as we feel these courses are more effective when delivered in person.

A bariatric patient is an individual who faces significant weight-related health challenges that impact their daily activities and overall quality of life. They often require specialised care to manage these challenges effectively.
Bariatric care refers to the comprehensive support and medical management provided to individuals who are significantly overweight, focusing on improving their health outcomes and daily functioning with personalised care plans.
Helping a bariatric patient involves providing tailored support that respects their dignity. This includes assisting with mobility, personal care, dietary management, and ensuring they have emotional and social support to improve their quality of life.
Bariatric care needs vary from person to person but often include mobility assistance, nutritional guidance, and help with personal care.
