Kare Plus, a leading provider of healthcare, has announced its commitment to providing information and guidance on supporting staff who experience stress, anxiety, depression, or other mental health conditions.

Recognizing the broad spectrum of mental health challenges individuals may face, the Talisman Square agency aims to equip line managers with the necessary skills and behaviours to effectively identify and manage stress and mental distress among their teams.

Emphasizing the benefits of such initiatives, research has shown that being a mindful employer, like Kare Plus Kenilworth, promotes an atmosphere where employees feel safe discussing mental health issues without fear of rejection or prejudice.

In a survey conducted by Mindful Employer Charter signatories, it was revealed that three out of five employees had engaged in conversations with their managers about current mental health conditions, reflecting increased confidence and trust.

A crucial aspect of fostering a supportive work environment involves managers actively listening, demonstrating support, and showing understanding when employees disclose their mental health challenges.

This enables appropriate action to be taken promptly and provides individuals with the assistance they need.

Kare Plus Kenilworth's dedication to being a Mindful Employer reinforces its commitment to employee well-being and recognizes the importance of addressing mental health concerns in the workplace.

By creating a culture of open dialogue, the organization aims to contribute to reducing the stigma surrounding mental health and facilitate the identification of solutions that enable employees to remain productive while receiving the support they require.

As Kare Plus Kenilworth continues to prioritize employee welfare and embrace Mindful Employer principles, the organization aims to set an example for others within the industry, highlighting the positive impact of mental health support on both individuals and the overall workplace environment.

Having opened last October, the Talisman Square-based firm is now getting ready to launch its home care service which will offer personalised domiciliary care plans for residents across Warwickshire, South Coventry and East Birmingham.

This will add to the home help service and staff for care homes Kare Plus already provides.
