Life at Badgeworth Court Care Home
All Aboard!
Our residents at Badgeworth Court had a brilliant time recently when we set sail on our virtual Cruise Ship.
This unique event really was a showstopper! The brilliant Sadie was our tour guide and took us on a reminiscing journey with classics from across the decades.
Of course the experience would never be complete without some tasty dishes and our talented hospitality team really did pull out all the stops and provided a selection of mouth-watering dishes inspired by destinations from around the globe!
The smiles and laughter from all our residents said it all, it really was an evening to remember.
The methods and mediums may change but the heart of live music - the communal joy, the shared emotions, the collective energy - remains untouched.
Exotic Encounter
We have been busy getting up close and personal to some exotic animals!
The incredible team from ZooLab brought in their extraordinary creatures for our intrigued residents to admire.
What an experience it was getting up close and personal with these beautiful creatures. There was such a variety and we got the pleasure to learn about them all.
We had Guinea Pigs , Insects and even a Corn Snake made an appearance!
It was great to get an insight into these amazing animals behaviours, our residents even at the opportunity to hold them.
Animal therapy is one of the cornerstones of our life enrichment program and features regularly on our resident-led weekly activity planner.
Mini Bus Trip!
We have been busy getting out and about on our mini bus at Badgeworth Court.
At the request of our lovely residents, we visited one of our beautiful local garden centres. We strolled around admiring all the different plants and flowers that was on show.
At Badgeworth we are lucky to be surrounded by beautiful gardens, so it was great to get inspiration from the range of displays on show.
Of course our outings are never complete without a stop for a slice of delicious cake and a hot cup of coffee.
Regular outings are just one aspect of our life enrichment program and all the trips we take are at the request of the residents.
Music and Movement
The residents at Badgeworth Court Care Home have recently had a very energy filled session with Michelle from Music and Movement. At Barchester we believe movement is key for healthy aging, maintaining mobility and quality of life, and music is a wonderful medium for connecting and uplifting. Our residents really benefit from the sessions and enjoy interacting with their fellow residents.
Boat Trip
Absolutely amazing day spent relaxing on The Willow Trust with the Skipper and all the amazing Volunteer’s.
We all had a brilliant time on the boat with colleagues and residents from one of our sister homes Tewkesbury Fields. The weather was just perfect, we enjoyed a picnic, steering the boat with the fantastic support from the Skipper and the volunteers; we also got to spend time sitting outside enjoying the views and fresh air.
Thank you to all the volunteers we got to meet today on board, you are all amazing. Our residents had a wonderful time!
Garden Feeding
We have had a lovely time in the sunshine at Badgeworth Court care home. Our residents enjoyed a tea and coffee in our beautiful courtyard whilst topping up the bird feeders outside their rooms. Some of our residents like watching the birds through the window, whilst others may want to get actively involved in managing the bird-feeding station, either way all residents benefit from this activity.
