Get personalised lung disease home care with Tiggo Care, where we create bespoke care plans and support your loved one to maximise their quality of life.
Caring for a loved one with lung disease can be demanding because their condition can quickly cause fatigue and breathlessness, affecting their ability to manage everyday tasks. At Tiggo Care, we understand lung conditions can vary in severity, and while some may not require personal care, others might, especially in advanced stages.
Our compassionate team is trained to provide person-centred care and support with household chores and other important errands. We know many people with lung disease receive oxygen therapy at home and our care assistants are trained to support people using this type of equipment. Contact us today to discuss how our respiratory care services can help your loved one to live comfortably at home.
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.
Lung disease incorporates a variety of different health conditions affecting the lungs, causing difficulty in breathing and limiting oxygen intake.
Lung disease encompasses conditions that impact the respiratory system, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, pulmonary fibrosis, and lung infections like pneumonia. These conditions can cause persistent coughing, shortness of breath, chest pain, and fatigue.
Lung disease often progresses over time, making it increasingly difficult for patients to engage in daily activities without assistance. Many people with lung disease require supplemental oxygen to help manage their condition because their lungs are less efficient at transferring oxygen into the bloodstream. Proper management and support, including professional home care services, are essential in helping people with lung disease maintain their independence and well-being.
"Seeing my clients with lung disease get through their day a bit easier because of my help really warms my heart. It's more than just a job for me; it's about making sure they can enjoy life with less worry about the small stuff, like household chores, managing their meds or getting to appointments. We're here to help, and that's what matters."
Lung disease home care often allows people with lung disease to stay in their own homes comfortably for longer. Our home care services include helping with daily chores, running errands, and ensuring medication routines are followed accurately. Care can be essential for some people because lung disease can cause severe fatigue and breathlessness, making routine tasks challenging.
Additionally, at Tiggo Care, we can safely support people using oxygen therapy, something many other care companies are unable to d.. Although personal care is not always necessary for people with lung disease, we are can also provide this type of support if the condition worsens. Opting for home care not only eases physical strain but also promotes emotional well-being by keeping your loved one in a familiar, reassuring environment.
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..."
Chris Williams - Tiggo Care Founder
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.
