Life at Hilderstone Hall Care Home

Preparing the Spring bulbs

The residents here at Hilderstone Hall have been taking part in a spot of bulb planting under the guidance of one of our new green fingered residents. Maureen kindly donated Hyacinth & mixed miniature daffodil bulbs along with the fertiliser.

We shall look forward to watching them bloom!

Musical moments with Anna

Once a month we enjoy a visit from one of the homes firm favourites - Anna from Musical Moments. Anna has been providing Hilderstone Halls residents with dance, music and uplifting activities for some time now as part of our life enrichment programme. This is a popular group session and always attracts a large crowd!

Pamper afternoon

We had a lovely afternoon at Hilderstone Hall on Saturday 16th sept. Thanks to Kat the clinical nurse who came in on her day off to provide the residents with an afternoon of pampering including facials, nail painting and makeup tutorials, leaving the residents looking and feeling truly refreshed.

The residents mental and physical wellbeing is crucial here at Hilderstone and providing relaxation and pamper afternoons is one way to enhance and promote this with them.

Floor games

Keeping active, having social interactions and being mentally stimulated is very important to Residents at Hilderstone Hall. As part of our life enrichment programme we ensure the residents have access to as well as partake in planned floor and table games when possible.

Wimbledon

We have been celebrating in true Wimbledon style here at Hilderstone Hall with bubbly, strawberries & clotted cream, as the tennis came to an end. The residents have enjoyed watching the tennis together daily in our beautiful main lounge as well as participating in Wimbledon inspired quizzes & puzzles throughout the month put together by our very enthusiastic activities team.

Blythe Bridge High School

Students from blythe bridge high school hosted a floral art class here at Hilderstone this week which was thoroughly enjoyed by all who participated. Both residents and students gain so many significant benefits from this time engaging in each other’s company and sharing skills which makes these visits and workshops so crucial to the wellbeing and life enrichment of our residents.
