OMI, Oh my!

Since we received our OMI Vista Mobii at the beginning of December, we have spent a lot of time investigating and exploring the different capabilities and activities on offer.

Come Dine With Me Experience

Residents at Manorhey took part in their very own Come Dine With Me. The menu for the day had been chosen by residents and then cooked and served by our Chef Manager, Pete Irlam. Feedback from residents was that they thoroughly enjoyed the meal and the come dine with me experience.

Couples Valentine's Lunch

Manorhey residents enjoyed a couples valentine lunch. David and Elsie both celebrated valentines day together at the cafe hey.

Seasonal Collage

The residents at Carmel Lodge have been spending time during the wet weather creating a seasonal collage. They have included themselves as the people in the pictures, some are hand drawn due to data protection, but they know who they are.

Everyone who had an idea or a hand to hold a glue brush was included.

Homemade Bread

Bowerfield House often enjoys a fresh homemade loaf of bread. We are lucky to have a bread maker and the smell while its baking is great for a sensory day.

We all enjoyed a slice when it was baked with a bit of butter on it, if we had to pick a negative it would be it takes 3 hours and 30 mins to complete! But we do enjoy the smell it makes while baking, it is certainly worth the wait.

Tropical Discovery at Brunel House

Kris from Tropical Discovery came to visit us recently and the reaction from everyone here was amazing and completely overwhelming.

Each resident had the opportunity to hold each of the animals as you can see in the attached photos, as Kris gave an interesting talk about each species.

We met a millipede, Madagascan Hissing Cockroach, Praying Mantis, Nymphs, a Chilean Rose Tarantula who was 21 years of age and very loving and a Hog Nosed Snake!

We are all looking forward to seeing Kris again in July with more of his amazing collection.

Getting Active

We encourage everyone living with us who is able, to engage in regular physical activity through group activity sessions.

As well as the physical health benefits, we really do have a lot of fun!

Celebrating Love at Buckingham House

Celebrating love at Buckingham House with cookies, advice and singing.

Walking Club

Walking club has become an all time favourite at Buckingham House Care Home, enjoying the scenery in and around Gerrards Cross.

Valentine's Day at Bowerfield House

Bowerfield House had a fantastic day celebrating Valentines day, we had a singer Sam come into the home, every one enjoyed themselves and sang a long to the love songs.

We had a Valentines raffle and our lovely nurse, Albinah, won the beautiful valentines basket raffle full of goodies!

We sent a balloon with hugs and a kiss to those in heaven who we love and miss - we are sharing this balloon in loving memory of our family, friends and loved ones who have passed away and we will never forget.
