πŸŽ‰ Happy Retirement, Karen! πŸŽ‰

Recently at Heath Lodge Care Centre , we came together to celebrate the retirement of our wonderful colleague Karen, who has been a valued member of the Heath Lodge family for many years.

Karen is loved by both our wonderful residents and staff alike. Her dedication, kindness and hard work in the laundry department have made a lasting difference and will be remembered by everyone at the home.

To mark this special occasion, our manager Mihaela, along with Monica, Prarthana and the wider team, organised a surprise retirement celebration. The home was beautifully decorated, a delicious cake was shared, and pizzas were enjoyed by all as we gathered to celebrate Karen’s incredible contribution.

It was a joyful occasion filled with laughter, appreciation and many fond memories shared together.

Karen, thank you for your commitment and all you have done over the years. You will be greatly missed by everyone at Heath Lodge.

We wish you a long, happy and well deserved retirement as you begin this exciting new chapter. πŸ’β€οΈ

May was full of lovely moments across our homes, from getting outdoors in the sunshine to spending time together over tea and cake πŸ’œ

We celebrated World Baking Day with homemade treats, got moving for National Walking Month and loved taking part in Time for a Cuppa with Dementia UK , where simple chats over a brew turned into special moments β˜•

We also marked Dementia Action Week, helping spark conversations and raise awareness, celebrated cultures and stories from around the world, and took time on International Nurses Day to thank the incredible nurses who care for our residents every day 🌍

And with the warmer weather finally arriving, National BBQ Week gave us the perfect excuse to enjoy good food and great company outdoors β˜€οΈ

Here’s a little look at May across our homes πŸ“Έ

It has been such a lovely, full week here at Heath Lodge Care Centre , with so many little moments that brought smiles all around πŸ’œ

We have spent time piecing together jigsaws, getting stuck into word searches and enjoying some relaxed colouring sessions. There has also been plenty of laughter during our gentle ball games, with everyone joining in at their own pace and cheering each other on 🧩🎨

Our garden walks have been a real highlight, giving our lovely residents the chance to enjoy the fresh air, take in the greenery and have those easy, unhurried chats along the way 🌿

We have also shared some calmer moments with sensory activities and doll therapy, which brought comfort, connection and a lovely sense of reassurance to those who enjoy them. It really has been a week full of togetherness and simple joys πŸ’œ
