Life at Stamford Bridge Beaumont Care Home
Birthday celebrations
What a busy day we had yesterday, celebrating 2 of our residents turning 90! Residents enjoyed fizz, nibbles and games along with some cakes made by our catering team. Happy birthday ladies!
Spring crafts
As the snow fell outside, residents showed their creative side with an arts and crafts session by creating floral pictures as they look forward to the signs of early spring as bulbs begin to appear in the homes garden. Residents used form stamps, colour paper and everyone was delighted with the end results.
Eyes down for a game of bingo
It was ‘eyes down’ as residents enjoyed a socially distanced game of bingo which is featured regularly within the homes life enrichment programme. Residents enjoyed getting involved with calling out the numbers and fondly remember evenings spent in the former bingo halls. It was a fun-filled afternoon whilst enjoy a cup of tea and slice of homemade cake.
Arts and crafts
Arts and crafts is a popular activity for our residents as they like to show their creative sides. Residents have been busy finishing their personalised calendars to display in their own rooms so they can keep a note of when their favourite activities are scheduled. They are looking forward to being able to get back out in the homes mini-bus for trips out once the pandemic is over.
Letters and cards bring joy
Throughout the pandemic our Residents have been delighted to receive cards, letters and pictures from their friends from the local community and thoroughly enjoy reading them all. Margaret, a resident within the home was ‘over the moon’ today to receive a reply from one of the students who she had personally responded too, the letter also included a crossword for Margaret to do as she had expressed an interest in them and had mentioned it was something she enjoyed doing. Thank you to everyone who has written and continues to do so, you brighten our days!
Magic table fun
Residents of Stamford Bridge Beaumont have been busy making the most of the homes interactive magic table which allows residents to complete puzzles, create pictures using touch. The magic table is a great asset to the home and for those residents living with dementia.
