Activities at Ross Court 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.
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 Ross Court Care Home
Ladies that Lunch!
We have been busy out and about on the Mini Bus recently at Ross Court.
We were lucky enough to be able to take some of our lovely ladies to the Royal Hotel for lunch.
It’s safe to say that everyone had a lovely time and the food was great. Thank you to all the Staff at The Royal Hotel, we will definitely be back!
Burns Night Celebrations
At Ross Court we have been celebrating the Scottish tradition Burns Night.
We had the very talented Simon join as he showcased his talent playing the Bag Pipes.
This definitely blew our residents away as they enjoyed the Scottish tradition with a whisky dram and of course we couldn't let the day pass without the very traditional "Neeps and Tatties"
It was a brilliant afternoon enjoyed by all
National Activities Provider Week
National Activity Professionals Week is a yearly celebration that recognizes the vital role of activity professionals, who design and implement programs to engage residents through leisure activities, ensuring their physical, mental, and social well-being; it is organized by the National Association of Activity Professionals (NAAP).
We are extremely proud of our Activities Team - Carron & Brenda for all the meaningful activities, entertainment and fun they provide for our residents every day. They always go that extra mile and bring joy and laughter wherever they go. We would also like to say a huge thank you to Karen who supports our activities team when it is needed all 3 of you do a fantastic job.
Christmas Baking
Our residents had the pleasure of spending some time with our Head Chef over the festive period, creating their very own Yule Log.
It was great to get everyone involved, from mixing up the ingredients to decorating the finished creation with festive touches.
It was a fun and of course delicious way to get into the festive period.
As always a big thank you to our head chef for supporting our residents with this festive activity.
Christmas Pantomime Visit
Making most of the festive season, we recently took our residents on a magical outing to see Sleeping Beauty!
The excitement was at an all time high on our mini bus as we took a journey to the home. The performance was excellent with plenty of laughs, music and audience interaction.
It was the perfect way to get us into the festive period. It is moments like these that really does make our Christmas season at Ross Court special.
Veterans Evening
We had the pleasure of hosting a special Veterans Evening at Ross Court recently.
It was a brilliant evening where we came together to celebrate and recognise the service and support they provide our community.
It was an evening filled with laughter and shared memories as we welcomed both veterans and their families. We were privileged to hear stories from all of our visitors and residents from that period of time.
A big thank you to everyone who joined us.
Ensuring that we host events that relatives and friends can join is very important to us here at Ross Court.
