We love to hear stories from our team as well as from our residents. This month, we caught up with Tom at Avonbourne to hear how he became the Chef there.
While lots of us look forward to retirement, for many, the idea of not working at all is unthinkable. And in a care home, having a ‘job’ can support quality of life and enhance the sense of purpose for residents.
Praise for kind, helpful, friendly, and caring staff; opportunities for making friends; feeling of safety, security, and a sense of belonging/community.
Valentine’s Day is recognised around the world as a day of love and showing our partner just how much we care. When someone is living with dementia, however, they might not be able to express themselves in the same way they used to.
