We tailor our hearing impairment home care service to the needs of each client to ensure they receive comprehensive assistance.
At Tiggo Care, we recognise that individuals with hearing impairments often lead independent lives. However, when additional health challenges arise, the combination of expert care and sensitivity to hearing needs becomes crucial. Our bespoke hearing impairment home care services in London are designed to respect the independence of each client.
Our carers are attuned to the nuances of non-verbal communication and equipped with the knowledge to effectively support your loved one's daily routine, from medication adherence to personal care assistance to attending medical appointments and social engagements. By integrating thoughtful communication strategies and personalised care plans, we help bridge the gap between health needs and communication barriers. Contact us today to learn how our specialised care can enhance your family member's quality of life.
Whatever your care needs and wherever your loved one is on their care journey, please contact us and let’s talk. We're here to help.
Hearing impairment is the partial or total inability to hear in one or both ears, which can affect communication and daily activities.
Hearing impairment, also known as hearing loss, affects around 11 million people in the UK. The prevalence of hearing loss is expected to rise, with estimates suggesting that by 2031, around 14.5 million people in the UK, or approximately 20% of the population, will experience some degree of hearing loss. Hearing impairment can occur at any age but is more common among older adults.
Causes of hearing impairment include age-related wear and tear, exposure to loud noises, infections, and genetic factors. In children, hearing impairment can be congenital or acquired due to illnesses or injuries. Managing this condition involves the use of hearing aids, cochlear implants, or other assistive devices, along with strategies to enhance communication and social interaction.
"I love working with Tiggo Care and helping people with hearing impairments. It's all about understanding and patience. If possible I’ll speak loudly and clearly or in other cases I will write things down. I'm here to help with daily tasks, like cooking or getting to appointments, and just being a friend. Seeing someone smile because they feel understood is the best part of my day. Together, we make life easier and a lot brighter."
While many people with hearing loss manage independently, those with additional health needs often find immense value in receiving person-centred care at home. With our hearing impairment home care service, carers are trained to effectively communicate with people with hearing loss to ensure communication between carers and clients is effortless.
Our carers can assist with domestic tasks such as cleaning and organising belongings. We can also help with meal preparation, provide assistance in managing medication routines, and attending medical appointments. Escorting to events or outings can also be arranged, ensuring that your loved one remains active and integrated with their community. Naturally, our carers provide companionship, helping to alleviate feelings of isolation that can sometimes accompany hearing loss.

Our home care service is based on personal experience
We understand, first-hand how important it is to secure flexible and bespoke home care for your loved one.
“Tiggo Care is born out of my own personal experiences, following my struggle to find suitable care for my parents, both of whom lived with rare diseases..."

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.

Carers play a vital role in assisting those with hearing impairments, particularly with communication. They ensure messages are understood by using clear gestures, written notes, and visual aids. This thoughtful approach to daily interactions enhances the quality of life of people with hearing loss, making each day smoother and more enjoyable for your loved one.
Yes, Tiggo Care offers flexible short-term care options tailored to individuals with hearing impairments. Whether it's support after surgery or temporary help while your primary carer goes on holiday, our compassionate carers ensure your loved one's needs are met, regardless of the duration.
Consider home care when the hearing impairment combined with other health issues starts to make daily tasks more challenging. A trained carer can bridge communication gaps and help manage other medical conditions, ensuring your loved one lives safely and comfortably at home.
Tiggo Care provides a range of at-home services for individuals with hearing impairments. From personal care and medication management to support with social activities and help with household chores, our carers are trained to support your loved one in a way that respects their independence and enhances their daily lives.
