Activities at Oulton Park Care Home
We have a wonderful team here at Oulton Park and we all work together to provide a stimulating, active environment for our residents that live here. We are always looking for new and innovative ideas for our residents to be part of here, and our activities coordinator works very hard on planning and providing a stimulating busy schedule of activities, as well as assisting the residents with their daily living preferences. We have regular meetings with our families and residents to make sure we are providing things to suit their preferences. We as a home are registered with the National Activity Providers Association and strive to provide a person-centred approach for our residents here.
Louise Hunter-Hall
Hello my name is Louise, I am the life enrichment and activities coordinator at Oulton park care centre.
I joined Oulton Park late 2023 but I have worked in the care industry for over 20 years and I have a compassion for my role and work. During the 20years I have supported many different adults with different care needs including, nursing care, physical disabilities, learning disabilities, independent living and 1:1 needs. I have both my level 2&3 in care and level 2 in sign language.
At Oulton my role is to create and organise a range of engaging and meaningful activities. My role brings me a great deal of comfort and joy.
If I can just make 1 persons life better during my working day at Oulton Park then the day has been a success. I feel honoured, fortunate and blessed to do the job I do.

Life at Oulton Park Care Home
Mad Hatter's Tea Party
An Easter mad Hatters Party, where residents joined in with the rainbows, Brownies and Guides on an Easter egg hunt. This was followed by campfire songs and then an egg and spoon race. Fun was had by all and this really supported the residents with their wellbeing.
A trip on the Mini Bus
It's always good to get out and about, so this week, we boarded the mini bus and took a trip to the local supermarket.
Residents enjoyed a stroll around the shop, and especially enjoyed looking and at, and smelling, all of the beautiful fresh flowers. We finished our trip with a cup of tea and a piece of cake in Morisons Cafe.
A fun day was had by all.
