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.

Barchester Care Awards
Chef of the Year award presented by Divisional Hospitality Manager – Mervyn Knights . Providing a choice of delicious, nutritious and beautifully presented meals is hard enough, but it’s even harder when you have to tailor your menus to meet residents/ patients modified diets. The decision was really difficult with the standard so high, the chefs in this category had to compete in a heated cook-off, and the winner of Chef of the Year 2022 is Gulcin Sinar from Epsom Beaumont Care Home. Congratulations! Epsom Beaumont wins the award!
Community Pet visit
Our community pet visits our residents in the memory lane at Epsom Beaumont. People with dementia can find caring for an animal to be a source of support and stress relief. A person living with dementia can also benefit from companionship and friendship from having a pet visit and it may provide a sense of purpose.
