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.

I have moved to Falmouth from Kent where I was already in place at another Barchester home as the Activities Coordinator. I love providing our residents with fulfilling activities and my specialty is arts and crafts. I have a degree in Fine Arts and achieved a first in the subject. I strive to provide our residents with a varied range of life enriching activities. I like to get to know each residents and their interests to I can tailor activities to individuals interests and hobbies.

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.

Welcome to our new Deputy Manager
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.
