Activities at Epsom Beaumont Care Home
At Epsom Beaumont, the daily activities always aim to be enjoyable for all. Our Activities Coordinator is constantly working to mentally and physically stimulate each resident and ensuring that our programme is define moulded to the wants and needs of those we support. We host weekly outings to many local coffee shops, and also some bigger trips to Brighton and the Brooklands Museum. Our outings tend to be a new and exciting experience for residents, but are sometimes repeated for those who could not make the trip the first time. The activity schedule changes weekly, but there are some regularities, such as our crossword and bar nights, where families are invited to join their loved ones for a social evening. Activities are one of the most important aspects of a care home and we are proud to say we have a dedicated Activities Coordinator who is supported by all of the care team to really make it successful. We have received excellent feedback from residents and relatives, which only makes our bond with them stronger.
Louisa Capaldi
I always said when I started working I wanted to have a rewarding job that puts a smile on people’s faces and makes their day just that little bit brighter! I started working in the care sector as a hospitality Assistant, and then became a carer and then the activities coordinator. I really enjoy getting the residents up and moving, and getting active. I enjoy learning new things about the residents and doing meaningful activities with them that they enjoy and benefit from.

Santa Claus pays an early visit
A jolly red-robed Santa Mama bearing bags of gifts made her way to Epsom Beaumont this morning. No, it’s not Christmas Day quite yet; but for the residents of Barchester Healthcare the day was every bit as special.
The Feasting has begun!

National Elf Day
We love going all out for National Elf Day here at Epsom Beaumont.
Our staff were a vision of green and red as we enjoyed a day of fancy dress elf fun in support of the Alzheimer’s Society on Thursday 16 December.
We had a competition for our best dressed elf as well some live entertainment from Hayley who loves to sing to our residents!
A brilliant day, with lots of laughs!
Christmas Wreath Making
During December students took part in our annual Epsom Beaumont Christmas Wreath Making Competition.
Back for its successive year, the popular competition gives students and our residents, the chance to get creative as they roll up their sleeves and dive into the task of creating an Advent Wreath in just forty-five minutes. It is not just bragging rights at stake, they are all chasing that winning top spot and bagging the maximum amount of points for their school.
Students or volunteers take part in this annual Barchester Healthcare competition every year at the home
After 45 minutes of cutting, shaping, snipping and glitter flying everywhere, our five wreaths were complete and ready to be scored by our team of judges, who were our residents!
A great afternoon was had by everyone!
Magic Table
Residents enjoyed playing with our Magic Table recently. The Magic Table is an interactive light projector that was originally developed in The Netherlands. It's a specialist piece of technology designed to support residents living with dementia, and is proven to help staff promote stimulation through specialised games.
