Activities at Middletown Grange Care Home
Our teams are trained to enrich the lives of residents through stimulating the mind, body and soul, and taking the time to learn about each person to ensure everyone receives support that adds enrichment to their life. We aim to provide a variety of activities that will both mentally and physically stimulate the people we support. Residents have a range of different needs and interests, and it is crucial that these are reflected in the activities available, so that each individual is able to participate to the best of their ability. We organise both group and individual social events that everyone is welcome to take part in; there is a weekly outing to local places of interest, including the garden centre and the local farms, parks and museums. In addition, we enjoy regular visits from entertainers and even exotic animals. We also host events such as 'Beach Day' that relatives and friends are encouraged to participate in. Getting involved in charities is a big part of our ethos, so events such as 'PJs for Pudsey' and pirate-themed days are regularly hosted to raise money for different foundations, including the Alzheimer’s Society.
Activities and Events Partnerships
As part of our bespoke life-enrichment programmes, we host a number of live virtual events in the home on a regular basis through a number of partnerships with places of interest and world class performance companies
Life at Middletown Grange Care Home
Puppy Love
A visit from the adorable 'Beans' always lifts our resident's sprits.
Pet therapy has been shown to have numerous health benefits, including reducing stress, loneliness, and symptoms of depression and anxiety in seniors. It can also help increase serotonin and endorphin levels while lowering cortisol, leading to improved mental health and overall well-being.
Animals bring joy to us all and are always welcome to visit us.
Nutrition and Hydration Week
Did you know Nutrition and Hydration Week has taken place every March since 2012. Its purpose is to bring people together to create energy, focus and fun in order to highlight and educate people on the value of food and drink in maintaining health and well being in health and social care.
Organisations from around the world and from all areas of health and social care take part and new organisations are welcome to join in the fun.
Here at Middletown Grange our residents have enjoyed trying a variety of different foods and drinks.
If music be the food of love, play on!
Musical events are frequent here at Middletown Grange. We were recently entertained by the wonderful Cody. He had us dancing and singing along. The benefits of music are many. Music gives an outlet for creativity, socialisation, and mental stimulation, it enhances mood, improves interest levels and increases positive emotions. It's always a joy to welcome musicians and entertainers into our home. We are grateful for their talent and time.
