Assignment Task – Unit 304 – Participating through team leading After being giving the task to come up with an idea for a new health service, first of all was the job of deciding what the service would be and make a plan for research. A Holistic Therapy Clinic was decided as the service, as this is currently a popular choice of therapies. I set out a list of areas to be researched, which were:- * Types of therapies/treatments * Costs of treatments * Buildings/Spaces and costs * Décor and equipment and costs * Staffing and Uniforms, plus costs * Marketing and Literature Time slots were allocated for this research on a 3 times a week basis of an hour at a time. Once all research had been gathered I could then put it together to make a business plan. I then reviewed the research and work, as well as the business in a review/summary. BUSINESS PLAN This business plan proposes to open a Holistic Therapy Centre, providing a selection of complementary/holistic therapies to patients/clients. These treatments intend to treat the individual as a whole on all levels, mind, body and spirit as appose to conventional medicine. Complementary therapies also work alongside conventional medicine to ensure that clients/patients receive the best possible energy to bring the client to a place of vibrant well being. More people than ever are now using complementary and alternative therapy services, with approximately 76% of health care workers, including doctors and nurses using these services and approximately 63% of the general public, according to surveys conducted in 2011. In taking up these therapies, more people are taking their health into their own hands and responsibilities, which cannot be a bad thing. We are hoping to utilise the popularity and effectiveness of these therapies to run a successful service/business.
