At KYN, to ‘care’ is to honour our residents as unique individuals and to embrace the person they were and the person they are today. We are sensitive to their profession, public and familial role, hopes, interests and inspirations, and what we can do to nourish their mind, body, and spirit.
We strive to enhance our residents’ quality of life so that families and friends can have peace of mind in what can be a uniquely difficult time with fast-changing and complex situations. Our team’s personal and professional experiences have led us to build KYN as the home in which our own families, cherished friends – and we ourselves – would wish to live.
We believe that the best physical and emotional outcomes are achieved through a holistic approach – treating a person’s physical and mental health with a 360-degree approach to wellbeing. We begin with an in-depth assessment of each resident, sensitively compiled in detail and over time, to learn as much as possible about their history, clinical conditions, interests, and outlook. Only then do we build a bespoke plan tailored to their specific needs.
Focusing on the cornerstones of good health – preventative intervention, nutrition, appropriate physical activity, mental stimulation, and an active social life – our aim is to materially improve our residents’ wellbeing and enhance their quality of life.
We have created a positive, enriching, and uplifting environment where residents have as much autonomy as they wish, and their individual choices, independence, and maturity are respected.
Before each resident joins us, we take the time to understand their personality, interests, background, and individual needs. It is a nuanced, two-way process that is continuously adapted and improved throughout their stay. Only then do we create a bespoke care plan and assign each resident a dedicated household lead, nurse, and support team who share their interests and can take care of them like family, supporting as and when required or just being on hand to anticipate their needs before they arise.
The benefits of a more familiar group of people are immediately recognisable; the opportunity for companionship and meaningful relationships is not only life-affirming but is proven to positively influence both physically and psychologically.
Residential Care enables our residents to live fulfilled and independent lives, but with round the clock assistance as and when it's needed.
The individualised approach to care at KYN means we can prioritise our residents' independence, as well as their Nursing Care needs.
Dementia Care at KYN places the emphasis on emotional wellbeing as well as physical health.
