Humanitude is a care methodology, developed by Yves Gineste and Rosette Marescotti, since 1979. It combines a philosophy of care with care techniques which enable both caregivers and people cared for to feel safe, comfortable, and dignified during care.
Humanitude has been successfully applied across a wide range of social and healthcare settings, from operating theaters to day care centers. We primarily focus on improving care in residential homes, day care centers, home care services, hospitals, and care communities.
In addition to these settings, we have also assisted various organizations in enhancing their interactions with clients, family members, and colleagues. We believe that any organization can benefit from the Humanitude approach.
Our services are customized to fit each client’s specific needs. Please reach out to us to discover how we can work together to improve your care practices.
