1 Endeavour Post April 2017 What makes a good care home? Treat everyone as an individual, let them be who they were and who they are now, it is not about us but about them. Our job is simple! Make our residents and families feel safe, and loved and above all bring them laughter and fun to ease their day. Live Laugh Love

2 Staff Training. Are you aware staff training is at the forefront of our ethos and we constantly strive to ensure staff are up to date with best practise. As always I am very proud of our staff and cannot praise them enough, they work hard daily, providing care and support to our residents and families.

3 Spring is finally on its way with some sunny days and our gardens starting to look colourful and inviting again, the front garden is receiving an overhaul, and shortly the residents will be helping to plant our hanging baskets to

4 decorate the outside of the home

5 February 14th St Valentine s Day The residents made lots of Valentine decorations to adorn the home, and enjoyed a themed afternoons tea. A thought for Valentine s Day. Love is patient. Love is kind, it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud, it does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs, Love does not delight in evil but rejoices the truth, it always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres, love never fails. and now these three remain, faith, hope, and love, but the greatest of these is love Corinthians 13: 4-8

6 Throughout the months of February, March and April we celebrated the birthdays of: Harriet Dick Joyce They received a handmade personalised birthday card made by other residents with support from Yvonne, the homes activity co-ordinator, and we all enjoyed a lovely birthday cake, and a joyous chorus of Happy Birthday

7 Friday March 17th St Patricks Day is a cultural and religious day of celebrations, held on the 17th march, the traditional death date of St Patrick the foremost patron saint of Ireland in the uk. Endeavour celebrated St Patricks day with singing and dancing to the music of Pam and Dave Carter and a small tot of Irish Whisky to finish it off

8 Sunday March 26th Mothering Sunday. Mother s Day is a celebration honouring the mother of the family as well as motherhood, maternal bonds, and the influence of the mother s society, celebrated by Catholics and Christians. During the sixteenth century people returned to their mother church the main church of the area in which they were baptised, anyone who did this was said to have gone A MOTHERING, mothering Sunday became a day when domestic servants were given the day off to visit their mother church, eventually the religious tradition evolved into the mothering Sunday secular tradition of giving gifts Mothers hold their children s hands but their hearts forever

9 Easter Easter Celebrations Easter day 16th April was celebrated with lots of Easter eggs delivered by the Easter bunny and an eggstravaganza of decorations and treats made by the residents and staff, to celebrate this occasion, pre-1800 traditionally eggs were used from a duck or goose which was used as a symbol of new life, Easter is about the resurrection of the lord Jesus Christ. Chocolate eggs were introduced in the early 1800s but not so readily available as they are today and probably tasted nothing like they do today. Pam and Dave Carter entertained us on Easter Monday with an array of music and dance, thoroughly enjoyed by all.

10 Caring for the elderly Blessed are they who understand My faltering step and shaking hand Blessed are they who know my ears today Must strain to hear the things they say Blessed are they who seem to know My eyes are dim and my answers slow Blessed are they who look away When my tea was spilled at the table today Blessed are they who with a cheery smile Will stop to chat for a little while Blessed are they who never say You ve told me that story twice today Blessed are they who know my ways And bring back memories of yesterdays Blessed are they who ease the days And care for me in loving ways Blessed are they who make it known I m loved and respected and not alone

11 Dementia Awareness Week May 15th 21st May Dementia awareness is supported by the Alzheimer s Society, in the UK there are about people with dementia, it is estimated that around people have dementia but do not know it. Dementia is not a disease, you cannot catch it, it is a term given to a group of symptoms from certain diseases which affect the brain Symptoms include: Memory loss, Communication problems, changes in mood 5 Key facts about Alzheimer s: 1. Dementia is not part of aging 2. Dementia is caused by diseases of the brain 3. It s not just about losing memory 4. It s possible to live well with Dementia 5. There s more to a person than Dementia Sadly in some cases where symptoms of dementia have advanced, friends of people with dementia no longer visit, they want to remember how that person used to be, however whilst the wall of dementia is in front of them, they should be held in the same regard, and treated in the same manner as they were before they had this condition, even at an advanced stage people with dementia can sometimes indicate they are aware of those around them: THEY ARE STILL THERE
