Dealing with challenging behaviours in care homes can be stressful and overwhelming for both residents and caregivers. Behaviours such as agitation, aggression, and resistance to care often create an atmosphere of conflict and tension. These behaviours typically stem from underlying issues like pain, confusion, fear, or frustration.

We are delighted to extend a special opportunity to the readers of Care Home Magazine. Join us for a free online 'live' course led by an experienced care professional, offering a comprehensive and engaging learning experience. This interactive session will feature individual exercises, group work, insightful case studies, and a dedicated Q&A segment, allowing you to gain practical knowledge and insights directly from an industry expert.

Delegates will learn the tools to recognise cues to behaviour change and ways in which to deal with these positively. This is a comprehensive course that will equip caregivers with the necessary knowledge to deal with difficult situations confidently.

To gain an in-depth understanding and explore advanced techniques, we invite you to book this complimentary course on Managing Challenging Behaviours, taking place Monday 10th June at 1.30 – 4.30pm. We have 12 free places available on a first come, first serve basis.

To secure your spot on this invaluable ‘live’ course, simply click book my place now. During the checkout process, kindly enter the promotional code 'CHM/SEK0524' to redeem your complimentary place.

Henbrook House Care Home, which opened its doors to its first batch of residents last week, wants to improve life in St Neots by bringing the next level of luxury and excellence to the town. Guests were treated to champagne, canapes prepared by professional chefs, tours of the home, live music from a professional harpist.

Care homes can sometimes feel like a seperate world, hidden away from the wider community with very little interaction between residents and the community. Henbrook House has made it its mission to change this through extensive engagement with local businesses and charities.

On Friday, a new luxury care home in St Neots celebrated its grand opening over champagne and canapes with Mayor Rob […]

As we usher in a new edition of Care Home Magazine, we welcome a plethora of insightful and impactful content.

Beginning the issue is our hugely important focus on sustainability. As it’s the word on everyone’s lips in industries all over the world, we have experts on hand who explore how considering sustainable practices can contribute to the overall health and wellbeing of residents. Looking at the world of eco-consciousness in a different light, a piece from allmanhall also poses the question of ‘is a sustainable diet a nutritious and healthy one?’

A focus on technology makes up the latter half of our February issue where we begin by highlighting five pieces of tech your home shouldn’t be without. The likes of Chris Donnelly, CEO at Found CRM and Rachel Addley, Executive Director at My Life Films provide comments in our extensive article which looks at the changing landscape of technology in care and how it can affect a homes overall success.

Driven by the community interest company Book of You, based in Ruthin, the Care Home Buddy scheme has been extended to include Wrexham, Flintshire, Anglesey, and Gwynedd following a successful pilot programme in Denbighshire, Conwy, and Pembrokeshire.

Volunteers attend residential care homes weekly after being paired up as a ‘buddy’ with a resident who may feel isolated, lonely, and anxious, without friends or family to visit them regularly.

Post-pandemic this has been a significant issue, according to project manager Danielle Jones, who is leading a campaign to recruit 100 volunteers who will commit an hour a week to the initiative.
