Activities at Rivermead Care Home
We all know that keeping active is important. We have created a wonderful culture within the home and we work together to give residents the best possible experience. We are here to ensure that residents enjoy an environment that is both stimulating and socially active. We ensure the team knows each residents' preferences, so that we can deliver a person-centered programme of events and activities. Essential to our homely feel is the strong relationships of trust we build with residents and their families and friends. The home also has its very own minibus for our numerous outings for coffee and shopping, which residents love.

Life at Rivermead Care Home
Arts and Crafts
One of our residents was very proud of his achievement of making a boat for the children's Christmas Party! Ship Ahoy!
Alzheimer's Society
We held a coffee morning in reception for the Alzheimer's society, where residents enjoyed a quiz and a sing-a-long. A good time was had by all and the staff all joined in by dressing up as Elves.
Malton School
We invited students from Malton School to come along and share activities which they'd planned for the residents. It was so clear to see how much everyone enjoyed it! We've made plans for this to continue in the future.
Farming Museum
A number of residents recently went out on a day trip in our minibus to the Farming Museum in York. A great time was had by all who attended and we are looking forward to going back next year!
Diamond Wedding Anniversary
Two of our residents recently celebrated their diamond wedding anniversary here at the home with a wonderful party surrounded by family and friends. A great time was had by all! Congratulations!

Congratulations to our Carer, Kathleen Piedad, (pictured here on the right) on receiving her 15 year Long Service Award, which was presented to her by Unit Manager, Sue Atkinson.
