Forest Homecare

We believe passionately that being treated with dignity is a basic human right, not an optional extra. Care and support services must be individual and person-centred, as well as efficient.

We see things from your perspective, supporting your dignity and privacy. We can and do make a difference. We listen.

Together, we will agree the goals you want to work towards and identify how we will support you to achieve them. An individual’s support plan should be about life, not just services, and reflect what is possible, not only what is available.

Established in 1994, Forest Homecare remains an independent family-run business that has now grown into one of the largest domiciliary care and support providers in Essex and Suffolk, providing care and support in the heart of the community.

Forest Homecare continues to provide a full and flexible range of care and support services across the eastern region, including practical care, personal care, specialist care and community support. We work with adults of all ages – those with age related challenges, long-term illness, physical disabilities, learning disabilities, mental health conditions and those needing end of life care.

Forest Homecare provides well trained and qualified staff who see an individual as unique, irrespective of their disability, age, race, ethnic origin, cultural or religious beliefs or sexuality. Our assessments are person-centred and outcome focused. We have a quality and monitoring team who visit regularly to ensure staff are completing satisfactory records and the service user’s needs and outcomes are being fully met.

We have a strong senior management team consisting of Operations, Human Resources, Training, Administration, Business Development, Finance and Quality Control, led by our managing director and registered manager, Frank Ladkin. We have a commitment to quality that underpins the entire business.
