Activities at Lakeside Manor Care Home
Activities are the cornerstone of a wholesome home experience and our Activities Coordinators are always putting their creative minds to the test by organising new and exciting social events for residents to partake in. Of course, we take into account the likes and dislikes of those we support, so if someone doesn’t feel like trying something new, there will always be something on offer to reflect their personal interests. For the people who may just prefer some peace and quiet instead, we also offer one-to-one time that can be enjoyed with a nice cup of coffee or just a simple chat – whatever they desire.
Jenna Stuchfield
My name is Jenna , I am the Activities Co-ordinator at Lakeside Manor Care Home. I have a degree in Prosthetic Make up for film, which I practiced for 3 years, followed by a degree in teacher training. After moving to Jersey 5 years ago, I worked as a Design Technology teacher for 3 years. These skill sets have fitted perfectly into my role as Activity Co-ordinator for the last 2 years. I really enjoy my role and I perform it with enthusiasm., my best moments are dancing and singing with the residents and seeing them smile and laugh. I strive to ensure the residents are happy and engaged. My personal interests include, walking the dog, travelling and my biggest passion is art.

Life at Lakeside Manor Care Home
We are now 10-60-06 accredited!
Lakeside Manor is delighted to have achieved accreditation for a new standard of dementia care that has been developed by dementia care specialists at Barchester.
The 10-60-06 dementia programme was developed and trialled by Barchester's dementia team, replacing the previous dementia care programme, in order to ensure that the care services provided in Barchester’s Memory Lane communities are the best in the sector.
We have implemented significant improvements to the personalised dementia care services we offer, and the way that all staff are trained, to better understand what it means to be living with dementia.
The accreditation was completed as part of an unannounced visit on 3rd and 4th December 2018, and was undertaken by Leon Smith, Dementia Care Specialist.
Macmillan Coffee Morning
Lakeside Village (Lakeside Manor and Lakeside Care Home) have just taken part in the world’s biggest coffee morning. We had simultaneous parties across both homes, and it was enjoyed by all who attended.
Fire Training
We train our team to use the fire extinguishers so that staff members can kick ash.
Happy Halloween
We had a lot of fun celebrating Halloween here at Lakeside Manor.
