Town House Newsletter
Sadly, summer has finally
come to an end and with it the opportunity to get out and enjoy the warm
weather. However, the weather this year was kind and gave residents plenty of
opportunity to get into the garden and enjoy the spectacular sea views. Does
anyone recognise the two lovely ladies in this photograph relaxing and taking
the sun?
A special Day out
A big thank you to Sue for organising a memorable day for Bill and to her and Curtis for accompanying him on the day.
Christmas Shopping
Hard to believe I know, but our focus is now turning to Christmas!
Bath robes, nightwear
(it is advisable to get a size larger than normally worn as it is less
intrusive when someone is helping them to dress) soap, toilet bags, costume
jewellery and scarves. A portable DVD
player with a favourite film or music is always popular as is a CD player with
Talking Books or the resident’s favourite music.
Books of interest
about a previous hobby, an area they lived or a person they admired. It is better
if the book contains a small amount of text and lots of pictures.
What can be really beneficial,
both for the residents and carers, are labelled multi picture photo frames or a
digital photo frame. These provide a conversation point for the carer and
visitor. Similarly a book containing messages and photos from the family,
perhaps including drawings from grandchildren is a very personal gift.
A life history of the
person, put together by the family, is a special gift as it provides many happy
memories for the resident to be shared with carers and family alike.
