Activities at Brookfield Care Home
Our Activities coordinator dedicates her time on getting feedback from our residents of what they like to do. We have introduced paper mornings which involves group discussions and an active mind, and we also have a variety of entertainers that come in on a weekly basis. We hold a residents quiz once a week as it is one of our more popular activities, we now call it the Big Quiz due to its popularity.
It is important that we involve the community and family in many of our activities. We have the local rugby club heritage centre coming in once a week to do Bocci (indoor bowls) and seated exercise. We also hold cheese and wine evenings for family and residents which are very popular. Here at Brookfield we pride ourselves on the fabulous bond our activity coordinator has with all our residents as they are as happy to see her each morning as she is to see her friends.

Life at Brookfield Care Home
What have we been up to?
Staff members were delighted when we received our 'Good' rating from the CQC. Residents also enjoyed an arts & crafts session with Helena, a local lady from Lymm who comes in on a regular basis. We had a Sunday afternoon trip out for lunch at Statham Lodge Hotel with the local Rotary Club, and excitement has been building for our chicks, who are almost ready to hatch and are expected to arrive on 26th March 2018.
