Activities at Westwood House Care Home
As Activity Coordinator at Westwood House I am fully committed to organising activities for all of the residents. This includes activities within the home such as reminiscence sessions, and planning events such as the Summer and Christmas parties. We have also provided some very successful trips out to local places of interest in our minibus and have monthly visits from entertainers and musicians. We are always encouraging local schools to get involved and have recently managed to get a local charity 'Spare tyre' working with us very successfully.
It is important to me that each individual who we support can get as much from these as possible, so we try our best to arrange activities that reflect their interests and capabilities as best as possible, and encourage them to participate in any way they can. We also encourage relatives to join with activities and events as often as they can.

As a Lifestyle Coordinator at a Barchester care home, I help to create a stimulating environment that enables us to deliver exceptional all-around care and support for our residents. Our ethos is all about celebrating life, so I devise imaginative, fun and motivational events and activities that suit every interest and ability.
I ensure that I spend time getting to know all of our residents and their families, to ensure a personalised and tailored activities programme, focusing on maximizing everyone’s well-being, independence and social engagement.
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
