Activities at Falmouth Court Care Home

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.

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.

A great day for the team to see the arrival of our Mini bus this week. 

We are all looking forward to taking residents out and about in the community in the spring.  

A very long awaited day here at Falmouth Court as we welcome all the new staff on their first day.  They will now go through several weeks of training and induction into Barchester.  

This week we welcomed a new team member, Catalin...  

Hi my name is Catalin and I am the Deputy Manager at Falmouth Court.

I am originally from Romania where I graduated from Generalist Nurse College as a Generalist Nurse and worked as a nurse in protection of children with disabilities. I have a passion for supporting care teams and have responsibility for overseeing the resident care at Falmouth Court. I’ve always been a very caring and empathic person and interested in how every person can be so unique. I am very passionate about high quality care using my clinical knowledge to develop carers I lead. I learned during my traveling the importance of contributing to people’s quality of life from residents to my colleagues including the difference quality care can make. I have also studied Theatre and Arts. Being passionate about the arts I feel lucky to hear and learn about our resident’s stories, which makes them who they are.  It’s a privilege to be part of their story.  As I like to say, every one of us is a book, and every person you meet is a chance to a better you. We look forward to meeting you and welcoming you to our home.

A very exciting day for the team to see the builders cabins being craned off site.  Finally we are seeing it become a residence rather than a building site!
