WHAT A NICE LADY…………….

Gerald was so fascinated by this nice Lady.

He would have liked to be the Bride’s Father, as he said, to walk her down the aisle.

Gerald was very protective and watched her all the time. Not even Euan was allowed to come any closer.

A VERY SPECIAL LADY……………..

Claudia Monteiro, a very dedicated Health Care Assistant at Birchy Hill, was awarded the High Flyer Wing for April 2018.

She is always there when needed and loves her job.

Claudia has always a smile on her lips, she is friendly and helpful to everybody.

She is already known as a Dignity and Namaste Champion.

Congratulations Claudia, it is nice having you in our team!

FLORENCE – THE LADY WITH THE LAMP

Florence, the Lady with the lamp

Florence and her Nurses greatly improved the conditions in the Crimean War and many more soldiers survived.

She earned the name “The Lady with the Lamp” because she would visit soldiers at night with a small lantern in her hand.

We even had our very own Florence Nightingale for one day, as the Health Care Assistant Jagroop Kaur proudly wore the outfit.

We all think she did a very good job – Well done

A VERY ROYAL WEDDING AT BIRCHY HILL

The build up to the Royal Wedding was a lot of fun for the Residents and the Staff at Birchy Hill.

Many of us were drawing or painting pictures of the royal couple with lots of hearts and flags to decorate.

Then we made a lovely collage to show the route of the carriage.

Then on Saturday the ‘Royal Couple’ moved into one of our lounges as a big surprise to the Residents, Staff and Visitors alike.

Unfortunately, they were not real, but nevertheless loved by everybody.

THE WAIT WAS OVER…………..

The wait was finally over, and Prince Harry tied the knot with Meghan Markle.

The Residents who watched the fairy- tale ceremony in television, could not wait to see ‘the kiss’.

There was so much happiness amongst the spectators here in Birchy Hill, some were singing, others applauding or just shouting out their good wishes.
