Activities at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home

The activity team within our home spend a lot of time committing themselves to organising a range of activities for residents. This includes, pet therapy, trips out to local places of interest, visits from entertainers and musicians, bingo, one to one pamper time, weekly quizzes, coffee mornings, arts and crafts and baking. Activities are considered to be a crucial aspect of our home as residents look forward to upcoming events. As a result, it is essential that our team work together with dedication, to ensure residents are entertained and involved in as many activities as possible.

Activities Lead

I have worked in the care sector for 36 years, initially working for the NHS at Brandesburton Hospital as a care assistant. When the hospital closed I transferred to Townend Court and continued as a care assistant on the forensic ward for people with a learning disability. It was whilst working with the Occupational therapists at Townend that I discovered my passion for engaging the patients in activities of their choosing, I’m quite artistic and creative so it was an easy transition

I have many years’ experience working with the older generation and those who live with dementia, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s and other diagnosis’.

I am really looking forward to bring both my experience and passion to my new role and to see the positive impact on our resident population.

Life at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home

Homemade Treats for our Home

Homemade Treats for our Home

This week we decided we would do some baking, so we thought fruit scones would be nice to make! On Monday afternoon we set about making scones and what fun we all had! The residents took turns in doing different jobs mixing and cutting the scones ready to go in the oven. After they were ready we chatted about what things our mums used to bake and we enjoyed tasting the scones with a nice cup of tea. Then we shared them about around the home so everyone got a taste!
Pet at Home

Pet at Home

This week we enjoyed a lovely visit from pets at home! Jennie came into our home and brought in two of the most cutest pets. One was a white rabbit called Connie and the other was a guinea pig that we named Charlie. The residents love pets at home as they got a chance to handle these lovely pets and make a fuss of them. The little white rabbit enjoyed running around and found a nice resting place under one of our tables!
