This was taken at an event called “Bollywood and Beyond” which took place Sunday 12th May 2019

On the 12th May, Florence Nightingale’s Birthday, Nurses are honoured and celebrated all over the world.

In Birchy Hill, we celebrated this day with a lovely tea party, where Staff could reminisce with little anecdotes from their careers.

The Nurses wore different uniforms to demonstrate the changes Nurses were gone through over the last decades.

We listened to some information about Mary Seacole, another famous nurse in the Crimean War, and were challenged with a crossword puzzle to test our knowledge about nursing.

Next to our regular Vitality Care group sessions, we now offer a new activity class, called “Sit and be Fit”

The Residents play ball (here with our new Volley ball net), have chair dances or other easy physical activities.

It is always supported by engaging music. Residents and staff enjoy the sessions likewise.

Once a Month our Residents join in with social events in the wider community.

Here they visited another Care Home to have an afternoon of music, dance, fun and laughter.
