In line with the CQC guidance, and to complement our recreational activities, Karuna Care London will implement a comprehensive Therapeutic & Wellness programme focusing on residents’ physical health, mental stimulation, and emotional comfort. We believe in a holistic approach to care – nurturing the mind, body and soul of each resident.
To ensure top-quality care, our wellness programme will collaborate with local health professionals. We plan to have regular input from a GP and nurses. We will also seek partnerships with mental health specialists or counsellors who can provide on-call support for any resident experiencing emotional difficulties or grief, ensuring they have someone to talk to in confidence. By integrating these expert services, our care home takes a proactive approach to both mental and physical health. Each resident will have a personalised care plan, and our team will continuously monitor well-being, adjusting the programme as needed. This multidisciplinary approach means issues can be identified early and addressed holistically – for example, if a resident is having joint pain, the physiotherapist and GP can coordinate care; if someone is anxious or depressed, calming activities and professional counselling can be arranged.
All these therapeutic initiatives form a holistic wellness programme aimed at enriching our residents’ quality of life. Our philosophy is that a care home should be a place of vibrancy, healing, and personal growth, not just accommodation. By promoting physical fitness, mental stimulation, and emotional connection, we hope to empower residents to stay as healthy and happy as possible. From a morning stretch to an afternoon spent with a furry friend, each element of the programme is designed to nurture the whole person. This well-rounded approach aligns with best practices in elderly care, supporting both mental health and physical strength for our residents in a warm, compassionate environment. Together with our daily activities and special events, the wellness programme will ensure that life at Karuna Care London is engaging, supportive, and truly person-centred – giving families peace of mind that their loved one is thriving every day.
