Used by care organisations of every size, from single homes to the largest groups in the country.
Wellbeing is the part of care that gets deprioritised when the day is short — and the part with the least evidence behind it when the inspector arrives.
Activities are still largely planned by hand. A coordinator spends hours building a programme that lives on paper, a noticeboard or a spreadsheet — ad hoc, inconsistent between homes, and stopping the moment the person who built it goes on leave.
Because participation isn't recorded consistently, disengagement goes unnoticed. And when the regulator asks how the home delivers person-centred wellbeing, the answer is a photo wall rather than an evidence base.
“A resident who has quietly stopped joining in looks the same on paper as one who never wanted to.”
Not a roadmap. What is different on the very first shift.
Ready-made content and session plans remove the planning hours, so the coordinator spends them with residents instead of building a programme.
Every activity comes with content and a guided session plan, so delivering wellbeing isn't limited to one person — the programme survives leave, turnover and a short-staffed afternoon.
Attendance is logged against the individual, so the record answers what this resident did, what they enjoyed and what they have stopped doing — not just how many people came.
Evidence is created as activities happen. Reporting reads what staff have already recorded, so a home, a region and a group see engagement without anyone completing a return.
One group or regional team can plan for every home, so quality does not depend on who is coordinating on site — and the same measure applies everywhere.
“A world of activity in a few taps, not an afternoon of preparation.”
The library, explainedOpen the calendar, run the session, record who took part. That's the whole loop.
A ready-built year, balancing 1:1 and group sessions, with daily themes and seasonal events already in place.
Content and a session plan for every activity, guided so anyone on shift can deliver it well.
Attendance and engagement logged against each resident, straight into the care record.
There is no build phase. The library and the calendar are populated on day one and refreshed every week, so a home is running expert-built sessions from its first shift on the platform.
The wellbeing calendar — organisation, home and mCare calendars in one view.
See how Oomph can help care teams create more meaningful experiences and support resident wellbeing — and how everyday activities become outcomes your whole organisation can use.
Quizzes, flashcards, crafts, recipes, games, activity books and reminiscence content — filtered by interest, suitability, duration and difficulty, with recommendations that build from what each resident has already enjoyed.
Seated and standing exercise plans are built by specialists, so a non-clinical staff member can lead a physical session safely. Wellbeing toolkits, document templates and instructional videos support the team delivering it, and news digests, filmed sessions and archive music complete the picture.
Dementia content designed for cognitive impairment rather than generic material relabelled, with formats and delivery adjusted so no one is left out of a session.
Happiness, engagement, wellbeing goals and a care note are captured as the session ends — against the individual resident. Each resident carries their interests, preferences and participation history, so the offer becomes more person-centred the longer a home uses Oomph.
From engagement to inclusion, a manager can see how each resident benefits from the work the team does.
Registering attendance — happiness, engagement, wellbeing goals and a care note, captured as the session ends.
Integrated with Care Management. Activity, engagement and wellbeing scores write back into the resident's care record — so wellbeing becomes a measured part of care, not a separate system with a separate login.
Activities matched to individual interests, needs and abilities, with a record of what was offered and what was taken up.
Participation and outcomes tracked over time, showing what the wellbeing offer actually achieves.
A consistent programme and consistent reporting across every home, visible from the centre.
From single homes to some of the largest care groups in the country.
Our activity teams at Barchester Healthcare have actively used the weekly materials provided to them as they have been a great resource for extra support. We are currently producing weekly newsletters for our teams and the resources from Oomph! have supplemented the guidance and provided more opportunities and ideas to deliver meaningful engagement for our residents. In particular, the spring resources, nature tips, guided exercise sessions and quick wins have been accessed on a regular basis and our teams are taking full advantage of the support available to them.
New Care reinvested the hour a day that Care Management gives back into running its wellbeing programme, and reports that its new homes fill faster than rivals.
Created by specialists in wellbeing, mental health, dementia and nutrition, with clinical input — and part of the Person Centred Software Connected Care platform, so activities and the moments that matter also flow through to families via Family Connect.
