Activities at Brampton View 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.

Life at Brampton View Care Home

Joy gives thanks for her Covid vaccination

Joy is full of optimism now she and other residents at Brampton View have had their first Covid vaccinations. Joy has understandably been rather sad that she hasn’t been able to hug her daughters, and has also been worried about family and friends with their own health issues. However, she received her vaccination with no problems and is now full of hope that the national vaccination programme means she will see more of her family before long. Joy told us that she is thankful she lives at Brampton View where residents have remained Covid-free throughout the pandemic. She always appreciates the care she receives from the Brampton View team and added, “Christmas this year was very different, but staff and residents still made it lovely”.

Amanda celebrates ten years at Brampton View

Thank you to Amanda, one of the fantastic Senior Care Assistants at Brampton View. Amanda has just completed 10 years’ service at our home was presented with a large bouquet of flowers and her gold Barchester service pin as a show of our appreciation. Amanda works mainly with residents in Brampton View’s dementia community where she has wonderful rapport with residents and their families. She is always smiling and positive, and we all enjoy working with her.

Gifts galore this Christmas

Every resident at Brampton View received a specially chosen present from under our beautiful Christmas tree.

A pre-Christmas hairdo

Joy enjoyed a wash and trim with hairdresser when Sarah returned to Brampton View for a couple of weeks just in time for Christmas. Residents were delighted to see Sarah again and felt refreshed with their new looks.

Christmas greetings from local young people

Brampton View has received kind and beautiful greetings from young members of the local community. Pat has enjoyed looking through the hand-crafted Christmas cards from 34th Kingsthorpe Cubs. She has also been admiring little booklets of heart-shaped drawings and inspiring words from pupils at Kingsthorpe Grove Primary School, which we have now turned into seasonal bunting. Thank you for thinking of us - you have made our home look even more festive. Happy Christmas everyone!

Christmas jumper day

Staff and residents at Brampton View dressed in their Christmas jumpers, dresses and tshirts to raise money for Save the Children. Charlie and Regina, two of the home's dining hosts, love serving residents in the beautifully decorated dining room at this special time. This morning residents enjoyed festive music for their daily exercises.
