The Happiness Program: Bringing Joy to Home Care
At Goodwin Healthcare, we believe that care is about more than just physical assistance. That’s why we’re excited to be the only domiciliary care company trailing the Happiness Program in home settings—an innovative approach designed to enhance emotional and mental well-being for those we support.
What is the Happiness Program?
The Happiness Program focuses on promoting joy and fulfilment through:
-
Meaningful Connections: Engaging in conversations that connect and inspire.
-
Creative Activities: Encouraging self-expression through art, music, or hobbies.
-
Physical Well-Being: Tailoring light exercises to boost mood and health.
-
Mindfulness: Offering relaxation and moments of peace throughout the day.
The Impact So Far
Since the pilot began, we’ve seen positive results from service users who feel more engaged, happier, and supported in their daily lives.
Why We’re Different
What sets the Happiness Program apart is its holistic approach—caring not only for the physical needs but also for the emotional well-being of those we support. We’re proud to be the only domiciliary care provider bringing this unique, joy-centred initiative into home care.
