About Sagecare
We are Sagecare in Lincoln, a home care agency supporting adults across the city and the surrounding part of Lincolnshire. We provide care in people's own homes. We support older people and people living with dementia, adults with learning disabilities or autism, people living with mental health conditions, people with physical disabilities, people with a visual or hearing impairment, and younger adults who need help with daily life. Depending on the person, that might be one short call a day or several visits covering personal care, medication, meals, housework and company. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We are not going to talk around that. We have looked closely at what the inspection found, changed how we plan visits, record care and supervise our staff, and we are open with the people we support about the progress we are making. If you are considering us, please ask about it directly rather than taking a claim from us on trust. Beyond that, we ask to be judged on reliability, because that is what home care lives or dies by. Keeping to agreed times. Staying the full visit. Sending familiar faces rather than a different worker each day. Noticing when somebody is not themselves and telling someone who can act. Please ring us if you would like to talk about care at home.
