Activities at Ochil Care Home
Our home is always full of life, and we can thank our wonderful Activities Coordinators for this. Dedication to creating a unique and interesting activities programme is what sets us apart from other homes. We always take into consideration that some people would prefer to pursue their own interests, which is why our team strive to incorporative activities that cater to a wide range of tastes and hobbies. Our trips out are always fun and exciting as well, and residents are guaranteed to return with stories to tell their loved ones!

Life at Ochil Care Home
Endless Love
Residents and visitors enjoy the regular karaoke afternoons here at Ochil. The afternoons are filled with the sound of music, bringing impromptu dancing and lots of fun and laughs. There is no doubt that our residents enjoyed the delights this time round, as they were served a glass of refreshing Pimm's during the warm afternoon.
Music therapy is a popular session at the home and the calendar of events are aimed at promoting residents well-being through music, exercise and social interaction.
Dog Show
Ochil held a dog show on the 20th of July to raise money for a local charity called P.A.D.S Perth’s abandoned dogs society. We raised £325 and half went to our resident’s fund and £162.50 was giving to the charity. We had 9 dogs entries from residents' families and friends, and everyone had a great time.
10 Years for Haydee
Deputy Manager, Haydee Alcover, recently celebrated her 10th year at Ochil. Here's to another 10, Haydee!
Karaoke Afternoon
Ochil Care Home had a very enjoyable karaoke with Pimm's afternoon. Most residents attended the activity and had a lot of fun, dancing and singing. Everyone was in a great mood!
We are now rated 'Good'!
Ochil has recently been graded as good following our Care Inspectorate inspection, and staff were awarded £100 vouchers for their efforts. Well done!
