Activities at Falmouth Court Care Home

We understand that the people we support have passions and interests that could be difficult to pursue after moving into a care home – but that doesn’t mean we don’t encourage them to try! Some hobbies can define a person, so our Activities Coordinators are dedicated to ensuring that everyone we support is able to do what makes them happy to the best of their abilities. Social events are organised with individual tastes in mind and with the idea that residents have the opportunity to try new and exciting things.

Companion Cat arrives at Falmouth Court

Another exciting arrival today at Falmouth Court…

Our companion pets support with our life enrichment at the home by supporting dementia residents to enjoy the look, feel and sound of a real cat but they're so much more than soft fur, soothing purrs and pleasant meows.

The cats although robotic, have super soft fur, a vibrating purr for a real feel, built-in sensors that respond to motion and touch including petting, hugging and motion much like the real ones you know and love. This personally rich experience can bring joy and comfort to loved ones living with dementia for a soothing and comforting experience.

Hairdresser starts at Falmouth Court

Meet Sarah Sawyer our in house hairdresser.

Sarah has been a hairdresser for over 30 years and working in care homes for the last 7 years. Sarah is very much looking forward to meeting all our new residents and providing a wonderful service in our beautiful on site hair salon. Sarah really enjoys being the highlight of our residents week when they can get their hair done without having to leave the building. Keep your eyes peeled for some pictures of our beautiful salon coming soon.
