Bedford Care Home Introduces “B Happie” Initiative, Embracing Whole-Home Approach to Care

Bedford Care Home launches our ‘B Happie’ initiative within the care home with a whole-home approach. This fosters a holistic approach to well-being by involving all staff members in daily activities alongside residents.

Regardless of their role – whether kitchen staff, administrators, or care providers – everyone at Bedford Care Home sets aside their duties daily at 3 pm to join in the home’s vibrant array of activities.

Embracing inclusivity and engagement, the initiative offers residents a diverse range of options, from karaoke and dancing to therapeutic doll therapy and knitting circles. However, the true essence of “B Happie” lies in its commitment to personalized care; residents are empowered to choose activities that resonate with them, ensuring that each individual feels valued and heard.

Importantly, the “B Happie” initiative emphasizes the significance of a whole-home approach in care settings. By involving all staff members in resident activities, the program not only promotes meaningful interactions but also cultivates a sense of community and belonging. Through regular rotation across different units, staff members ensure that residents benefit from diverse stimulation and the opportunity to connect with different faces each day.

This initiative goes beyond just providing care; it’s about fostering genuine connections and enriching the lives of our residents. By embracing a whole-home approach, Bedford ensures that every individual feels seen, heard, and valued, creating a vibrant and inclusive environment where everyone can thrive.

With “B Happie,” Bedford Care Home is not only redefining traditional notions of elderly care but also setting a new standard for holistic well-being and engagement in care homes. Through its dedication to personalized attention and community involvement, the initiative is paving the way for a brighter and more fulfilling future for residents and staff alike.
