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

Life Enrichment & Activities Coordinator

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.

Happy Reunion as Distanced Garden Visits Return

We are delighted to say that we are now offering socially distanced visits for relatives of our residents within our garden space. The first visit on Monday morning reunited Dianne Shepherd with her mother Gwen. Mrs Shepherd, who came with her husband Gregg, said: “She looked very well and was in fine spirits, a real boost for us all.

“I can’t wait for the time I can put my arms around her a give her a big hug.”

Andrea Pullinger, Oulton Park’s head of activities, said: “To protect our residents we have had to carefully arrange the visits with social distancing and thorough cleaning between each visit.

“This has been a big boost to staff who have also missed the families.”

If you are a relative, please get in touch with our team to arrange your visit.

Queen's Birthday Celebrations

Here at Oulton Park care centre we celebrated the Queens Birthday in style with a huge cake made on site by our talented chefs! We then had tea and cake in the garden, enjoying the sunshine that we were lucky enough to be blessed with.

Carers Week Donations - Thank you!

Carers Week here at Oulton Park has been a brilliant week of cake, chocolates and goodies! Thank you to everybody who has donated to our carers - Lowestoft Morrisons, Co-op on Gresham road and of course Pete, our manager who gave everybody presents!

Baking Scones

We have been busy getting ready for the Queens birthday this weekend by baking scones together for a fabulous afternoon tea! Our baking club created these tasty scones for everybody to enjoy.

Enjoying the Garden

We have been making the most of this lovely weather we have been blessed with by sitting out and enjoying our gorgeous rose gardens. Our gardener has been hard at work to maintain our lovely grounds and we can't wait to have visitors back and enjoying them.

Cards for Families

Here at Oulton Park we have been busy making cards to send to our families in the post. Residents thoroughly enjoyed getting crafty and writing messages to their loved ones. We have been doing what we can to try and keep the residents in touch with family members, including offering skype and facetime calls.
