There are rest homes where life is good, the quality of life of the residents is essential. We might almost say that we feel there “like home“. This is the case of the Saint-Joseph rest home in Mouscron which has just received the “Humanitude” label. This is a guarantee of good treatment and quality of care provided to the elderly, while leaving them with maximum of autonomy and freedom. A first in Belgium.
In this home, there is no question of entering a room without being invited. No forced care or white coats. The autonomy of the two hundred and fifty-six residents is encouraged.
“Each person is well considered as they are. She can still do everything she knows how to do with her abilities at the moment. It’s up to us to ask if we need additional services“, testifies Jeanine, a resident.
Contrary to what one might believe, this method, which requires a lot of attention, does not require additional personnel. Benjamin Huyghe, care manager, says: “As a manager, I see caregivers happy with their care, residents at peace, and in my role it helps me since it has given a real human meaning to our role.“.
