Activities at Falmouth Court Care Home

Another wonderful success for our fabulous Head Chef Jon and his hard working team. We had our food hygiene inspection last week and we are happy to say we scored 5, Very Good!

Jon and his team work very hard to provide pour residents with an excellent culinary offering.

Our menus are composed of only the best fresh produce and cooked to the highest quality, with aims for the natural aroma and taste to be retained as best as possible. A great deal of care is taken to accommodate all dietary requirements, and our meals are always prepared with the likes and dislikes of residents taken into consideration.

Another musical treat for our residents!  The son of one of our respite guests happens to play the violin so he kindly came in to perform for everyone.  It was such a huge treat and something a little different from our usual full music agenda.  

What a lovely afternoon our residents had over the weekend celebrating 'National Drink Wine Day'.

National Drink Wine Day is held each year on February 18. Wine has been a staple in human culture since its invention in 7000 BC. Some ancient societies enjoyed their wine so much, they even worshiped it! These days, hundreds of types of wine are produced all over the world, so there’s an endless variety to choose from.

Our residents enjoyed sampling some different wines with of course some cheese and crackers to go with.

As we are now heading towards spring our residents are keen to get their gloves on and start preparing the garden for the summer. We loaded up the minibus and took them along to B&Q to select an array of bulbs and plants along with planters and also some seeds to grow our own tomatoes.

Everyone really enjoyed selecting their favorites and our activities team will now be incorporating 'Garden Club' into their weekly activity schedule.

A huge Thank you to Helen for her kind donation of these beautiful poppies for our Café Lounge. Helen kindly donated this wonderful bouquet for our residents to enjoy. Seen here with 'Dawson' one of our PAT (Pets as Therapy) dogs that she brings in regularly to visit everyone here at Falmouth Court.

Our residents love their visits with Dawson. He is such a calm and lovely boy and as we all know there is nothing better than animal therapy. Something we aim to provide a lot of here.

Bridge Club has now started at Falmouth Court! We have a few residents wanted to start playing bridge so Falmouth Bridge club have kindly agreed to come along and play with our residents. Our Ladies were most pleased to start playing one of the most entertaining and beloved card games of all time, Bridge is the perfect game for all seasons, all genders and all ages but is especially enjoyed by the elder community.
