Our Model of Care
Supporting healing, growth, and hope
Well Tree Model of Care
- Supporting Positive Outcomes
At Best Care, we provide a safe, nurturing environment where young people can heal, grow, and build a positive future.
Our Model of Care is guided by the Welltree Model of Care, combining trauma-informed, attachment-informed, risk-informed, and wellbeing-focused approaches to support each young person’s individual needs.
We focus on relationships, resilience, and developing the skills needed for long-term wellbeing.
Our Model of Care
- The Welltree Model of Care
At Best Care Residential, our practice is guided by the Welltree Model of Care, a trauma-informed, evidence-based framework.
The model focuses on strengthening young people’s wellbeing through supportive relationships, therapeutic care, and opportunities for growth and independence.
Hope
Supporting young people to set goals, believe in their future, and develop the confidence and agency to achieve their aspirations.
Connected, Respected & Contributing
Helping young people build strong relationships, develop social skills, and feel valued within their communities.
Economic Opportunity & Life Skills
Developing practical skills such as budgeting, cooking, self-care, and preparation for independent living.
Active & Healthy
Supporting young people to develop healthy lifestyles, emotional regulation, and positive coping strategies.
Achieving
Encouraging education, personal development, hobbies, and skills that help young people realise their potential.
Safe & Nurtured
Creating safe, stable environments where young people can build trust and learn to manage behaviour and emotions.
Evidence-Based Approach
Our Model of Care is grounded in research and best practice in residential childcare, using the Welltree Model of Care to support children and young people who have experienced trauma.
We take an integrated, evidence-based approach, combining:
- Trauma-informed care: understanding behaviour as a response to experience
- Attachment-informed practice: building safe, trusting relationships
- Risk-informed care: supporting safer decision-making and coping
- Wellbeing-focused support: developing strengths, skills, and resilience
Rather than applying one fixed method, our approach focuses on individualised care, allowing staff to respond to each young person’s unique needs.
Using the Welltree Wellbeing Outcomes Framework, we regularly review progress to ensure our care promotes safety, stability, and long-term wellbeing.
