So… if you’re new here, who exactly are Mindful Care Training & Consultancy?
I thought it was probably about time I introduced us properly for those that have just joined us!
Mindful Care started from a real passion for making a difference to the experience of dementia care — not just for the person living with dementia, but for their families, the people supporting them and the staff providing that care every single day.
And over time, Mindful Care has grown into so much more! We now have a fantastic team of trainers and consultants on board, and we’re able to offer support across a much wider range of areas.
Our work mainly sits around three key areas:
- Dementia care
We provide training, education and consultancy around all things dementia. From understanding dementia and how it affects a person, to communication, distress, changes in behaviour, person-centred care, relationships, meaningful engagement and supporting people to live well.
We’re also incredibly proud to have Teepa Snow Positive Approach® to Care trainers within our team, delivering this brilliant, practical approach to dementia care.
Activities, engagement & meaningful occupation
This is something we are particularly passionate about.l’
If you’re an activity assistant, activity coordinator or part of a care team and sometimes think “I know I want to do more, but I’m not quite sure what that looks like” — we can help!
Activities aren’t just about keeping someone busy.
It’s about knowing the person, understanding what they enjoy, what they can still do, what makes them feel valued and how we can adapt things as dementia progresses.
Sometimes it’s about completely changing the way we think about “activities”.
We are also are great advocates for cognitive stimulation therapy. Montessori and namaste! All we can provide training and support on!
- Mental health & wellbeing
And then there’s the person behind the care. Maybe this is you?!
Whether you’re a family carer, a member of a care team or simply someone who spends your days supporting other people, your own wellbeing matters too.
We can provide training and support around mental health, wellbeing, resilience, self-care and the emotional side of caring.
Because you can’t keep pouring from an empty cup — and sometimes we need someone to remind us of that.
Alongside our training, we also provide bespoke consultancy and support.
Sometimes an organisation knows something needs to change but doesn’t know where to start. Sometimes a team is struggling with a particular situation. Sometimes you just need someone independent to come in, listen, look at what’s happening and help you find a way forward.
That’s where we come in!
We don’t believe in a one size fits all approach. We listen first and then work with you to provide something that is actually relevant to you, your team and the people you support.
We deliver face-to-face across the UK and also provide online training and consultancy overseas.
Our website is currently getting a makeover to reflect all the changes happening within Mindful Care, including the fantastic new colleagues we’ve welcomed to the team and some really exciting ventures that are coming.
There is lots happening behind the scenes at the moment — and I can’t wait to share more with you.
So, whether you work in dementia care, support someone living with dementia, are an activity assistant looking for more support and training, want to develop your team’s skills, or you’re looking for support with your own mental health and wellbeing…
Please get in touch. - [email protected]
You don’t have to know exactly what you need before you contact us. Sometimes it’s just a conversation and we can work it out together.
And if you’ve been here for a while, thank you for continuing to follow, share, recommend and support Mindful Care. It really does mean a lot.
