Activities at Oulton Park Care Home
We have a wonderful team here at Oulton Park and we all work together to provide a stimulating, active environment for our residents that live here. We are always looking for new and innovative ideas for our residents to be part of here, and our activities coordinator works very hard on planning and providing a stimulating busy schedule of activities, as well as assisting the residents with their daily living preferences. We have regular meetings with our families and residents to make sure we are providing things to suit their preferences. We as a home are registered with the National Activity Providers Association and strive to provide a person-centred approach for our residents here.
Louise Hunter-Hall
Hello my name is Louise, I am the life enrichment and activities coordinator at Oulton park care centre.
I joined Oulton Park late 2023 but I have worked in the care industry for over 20 years and I have a compassion for my role and work. During the 20years I have supported many different adults with different care needs including, nursing care, physical disabilities, learning disabilities, independent living and 1:1 needs. I have both my level 2&3 in care and level 2 in sign language.
At Oulton my role is to create and organise a range of engaging and meaningful activities. My role brings me a great deal of comfort and joy.
If I can just make 1 persons life better during my working day at Oulton Park then the day has been a success. I feel honoured, fortunate and blessed to do the job I do.

Life at Oulton Park Care Home
Elvis Was In The Building
Elvis gave a rock & roll performance yesterday at Oulton Park with residents singing and dancing along.
There was a lot of discussion and reminiscing about the first times residents heard Elvis' music, how they reacted to it and the memories it invokes now.
We have a calendar of live music and other entertainment booked to ensure residents always have entertainment options available to them.
International Dog Day
We had a fantastic time celebrating National Dog Day with our canine friends. Oulton Park was visited by a range of wonderful mutts who were treated like royalty by all the residents.
We couldn't possibly choose a favourite as every dog that visited was perfect in their own way. Dog themed activities, artwork and baked creations topped off the fun-filled day.
Live Music
Live music is back at Oulton Park. We have a host of home concerts booked for the next few months covering a range of musically genres.
From 1950's Rock & Roll performances, to Cockney Knees-Up sessions, Karaoke Sing A-Longs and music designed to get residents dancing, we have it all booked at Oulton Park.
Animal Fun
Yesterday we had Bert's Amazing Creatures visit Oulton Park. Residents and staff all got involved with holding, petting and learning about the animals.
From cuddly rabbits, to cute hedgehogs, giant snakes and fascinating lizards, there was something for everyone!
Whilst giant snakes should probably not be encouraged to live in our gardens, we did learn about how to support hedgehogs and other British wildlife to enjoy our grounds. Animal therapy is fun, relaxing and inclusive. To find out more about life at Oulton Park please call and arrange a visit.
