Activities at Seaview House Care Home
Our Activities Coordinators are constantly striving to mentally and physically stimulate those we support by organising group and individual activities for anyone and everyone to participate in. There are exercise classes and a walking group, regular outings in the minibus to nearby places of interest including local concerts, as well as weekly visits from a PAT dog, and regular visits from musicians and entertainers, as well as church services which are held twice a month. We also host a weekly social event in which we encourage residents from the whole home to socialise together.
Activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home, so it is essential that our team are dedicated to ensuring that residents are entertained, and that life at Seaview is fun and active.
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 Seaview House Care Home
Haven House Healing – Music and Mindfulness
We had Lisa in from Haven House Healing in for a visit. Residents started off with some light chair exercises and focusing on their breathing and senses around them. Residents followed the friendly instructions and had fun joining in. This was good for a light fitness activity as well as challenging the mind softly. Lisa then moved on to using her lovely musical instruments which included a gong, flute and windchimes. She moved around the room so residents could hear better and they all seemed to enjoy this. The residents were smiling and afterwards commented on how lovely it was.
Virtual afternoon at the theatre
Residents across our services had a fantastic time enjoying the virtual screening of Some Mothers Do 'Ave 'Em. Frank Spencer’s comical misadventures had everyone laughing and it was wonderful to see so many happy faces.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and a special thanks to The Barn Theatre in the Cotswolds for bringing this stage adaptation of the beloved sitcom to our screens.
Virtual trip to Cornish Seal Sanctuary
A big thank you to the Cornish Seal Sanctuary for the fantastic live virtual event today!
Residents across our services loved seeing the seals up close and learning about the incredible work the sanctuary does to protect them and other wildlife in Cornwall as well.
Everyone truly enjoyed the experience.
Homes join 100th virtual event
Barchester care homes and hospitals nationwide linked together for a fantastic quiz in celebration of Barchester’s 100th live virtual event.
Residents engaged in a variety of questions ranging from historical trivia to visual puzzles and brainteasers.
Everyone who joined had a fantastic time and enjoyed some friendly competition.
Act of Kindness
We were recently touched by a random act of kindness when a member of our local community delivered a box of delicious cakes into the home for residents and staff to enjoy.
There were delicious and really made our day! Thank you.
Pet therapy
Residents, staff and visitors were delighted to host a visit from the Caithness Animal Farm Park for a little pet therapy as part of the homes varied life enrichment programme. We were amazed all of the animals were so wonderful and well behaved!
We can't wait to have them back again soon. All of our residents had fun and everyone enjoyed it!
