Carers & Care Homes

The Coronavirus pandemic has put unprecedented pressure on everyday life for almost everyone in the county of Kent, especially our Carers.

RWYS is now able to help carers access and benefit from professional mental health support, connect with others experiencing similar struggles, stay positive, develop personal coping skills and get through the current emergency.

For a limited period of time we will be providing online counselling and telephone support for Health and Social Care Carers in Kent and for family members who may be caring for a loved one at home. Helping them to connect to virtual support networks of people in similar situations. The online and telephone 1:1 services are available at a time to suit carers and counselling sessions can be held by telephone or video call (Zoom, Skype, Facetime, WhatsApp). All calls are taken in the strictest confidence.

We realise that the pressures that at-home and professional carers face, are not unique to the Covid-19 crisis, and they face challenges every day. We hope to raise further funds, to expand this service and be able to continue providing telephone and online support for carers indefinitely.

If you would like to find out more please feel free to contact us.

OUR MISSION

We believe that, with the right personalised support, anyone with a mental health need can live the life they want to live. It is our vision that everyone gets the personalised services and support they need.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

To make this vision a reality, our mission is to help people achieve good physical and mental wellbeing and live life to the full.

OUR COMMITMENT

We do this by providing mental health support services, ranging from ‘talking therapies’ for men, women, adults, families, children and young people to coaching Workplace wellbeing and Psychoeducational support and training, and all based on the principle of supporting every person, as an individual, towards their own goals and aspirations.

OUR VALUES

At RWYS we aspire to deliver the highest quality of care and support to individuals, couples children, young people and families. We do this by working alongside you to help you understand who you are, deciphering why you have made the decisions you have in life, learning how to make choices that suit you better and moving forward in life in ways that feel good.

Our aim is to make a real and lasting difference to the people we support by achieving positive outcomes and enabling as normal and fulfilling a life as possible.

Putting people first

Our business is about people, people who need hope and deserve a better future. It’s about finding the spark that enables each of the people we support to grow in self-worth and where possible, independence.

Being supportive

Being a non-judgemental confidential and professional service to the people we support to offer clinical interventions based on the latest scientific research and guidelines.

Acting with integrity

Taking responsibility, being honest in what we do and what we say, keeping it personal and real.

Striving for excellence

Questioning everything in a positive and constructive way and always striving to improve. By doing so, we can make things better for the individuals we support.

Being positive

Seeing potential, seeing what could be and not limitations. Being creative and trying out new things to find the best solutions that make it happen.
