Spinal Muscular Dystrophy is a progressive motor neuron disease affecting muscle strength and movement, with symptoms varying in severity.
Spinal Muscular Dystrophy (SMD) is the most common type of motor neuron disease, primarily affecting the nerves that control voluntary muscles. It is a progressive condition, meaning symptoms may worsen over time, and the impact varies from person to person. Some people experience mild muscle weakness, while others face more significant mobility, breathing, and swallowing challenges.
In the UK, around 70,000 people live with muscular dystrophy or related conditions, including SMD, which affects not only their independence but also their quality of life. Although there is no cure, tailored care and support can make a significant difference in managing daily life and maintaining comfort. Early intervention and assistance are essential to help people with SMD lead fulfilling lives.

Our home care services are 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.
