Discovering KYN, a new category of later-life care
At KYN, belonging means being cared for in a way that feels you are truly seen and understood. It means feeling at home in a space designed to your taste and knowing you will find common ground with those around you. KYN's mission to transform and reimagine the concept of later-life care was driven by the founders' personal experience in their quest for care. In fact the name itself arose from the vision of creating somewhere their own kith and kin – their friends and family – would want to live. Of equal importance are three key principles, that the care should be unrivalled, days should be resident-led, and the environment should resemble a private home. Managing director Caroline Naidoo, explains: 'KYN has broken away from the traditional care home model, creating a genuinely uplifting place to call home. We provide a pioneering approach to care built on our values of holistic wellbeing, supported by highly experienced nurses and carers, AI innovation, modern nutrition and world class design and hospitality. In everything that we do, we place a high value on the autonomy, independence and dignity of our residents.' A focus on a culture of kindness translates to an exceptional standard of vocational carers and nurses. Emphasis is placed on ensuring teams are freed up to spend time with residents through a leading carer-to-resident ratio and investment in advanced technology. Every resident is given the highest personal care according to their level of need, with dedicated in house 24/7 nurses and carers, an in-house physiotherapist and a regular GP and specialist visits. Both longer residential and nursing stays and shorter convalescence stays are offered. KYN provides exceptional post-operative, rehabilitation, and convalescent care in a nurturing environment designed to restore strength and independence. Whether for short-term recovery or extended support, KYN ensures personalised, expert care at every step in a central London location. According to the KYN philosophy, the team at KYN learn as much as possible about residents' past, present and future preferences before they move in. Emphasis is placed on giving residents full autonomy, in a safe and beautiful environment, with no set schedule to adhere to, and a culture that promotes individual pursuits alongside plenty of opportunities to socialise, building both a sense of belonging and being at home. A dedicated life-enrichment team provides a rich variety of experiences such as talks, from archaeologists to astronauts, and a concierge will make arrangements for residents as requested with chauffeured transport on hand in the KYN car. KYN's approach to design is rooted in warmth, dignity, and a sense of belonging. The design team worked closely with interior designer Nina Campbell to challenge conventional perceptions of 'care' environments, creating rooms evocative of an elegant and inviting English private home. Adorned with a selection of art curated by Adam Ellis who is more commonly associated with the art selections for London's finest private clubs, KYN homes are filled with warm colours and beautiful patterns. Bedrooms are complete with spacious en suite wet rooms and decorated with bespoke furnishings that residents are invited to embellish with personal touches. Generous gardens are equally as thoughtful, created by landscape designer Randle Siddeley to enhance residents' mood, cognition, and overall wellbeing, and provide a welcoming space to be enjoyed with guests. Every meal conjured by executive chef Tristan Welch of Petrus fame is also approved by clinical nutritionist Eva Humphries MSc to ensure residents get everything their body needs, all while appealing to their tastebuds. Menus change daily to keep things varied just as at home. Social spaces are also stocked with tasty, nutritious treats for residents to help themselves to at any time of day. KYN creates social spaces designed with family life in mind, where new connections are made amongst residents but also their loved ones and friends. A place where 'person-centred care' and 'resident led' have real meaning and residents are respected for the life they have led as much as they are cared for in line with the evolving needs of later life. Stroll through the immaculate landscaped gardens, sample the richly nutritious meals, and glimpse into the spaces where residents spend time with family and friends. The best way to experience all that KYN has to offer is to book a private tour.
