Every day at Abney Court is full of meaningful activities and fulfilling experiences. Each resident lives each day in the way they want.
We get to know your loved one extremely well, using life story books to capture the important details about their interests, hobbies and life history. We use this information to put together care and lifestyle plans that reflect their unique personality and preferences, so that they can enjoy experiences that feel special.
Giving meaning to every moment
We have a talented and enthusiastic lifestyle team at Abney Court. They plan socially distanced group activities and one-to-ones every day that residents love, but it’s important to know that every member of the Abney Court team helps to deliver meaningful moments to residents. A member of the housekeeping team might have a chat with a resident as they put away their laundry, or the chef might chat to a resident over lunch about their favourite foods.
Something different each day
There’s always plenty of activities to get involved in. In the past, the residents have welcomed visiting animals – from Guide Dogs to snakes and spiders – and they can’t wait to see the pupils from Cheadle Primary School again and be involved in new intergenerational projects.
Music is also a big part of home life. If your loved one has a suggestion for a new activity, we’ll make it happen. Our ‘painting to classical music’ sessions have been a fantastic addition, which residents find very relaxing.
If your loved one enjoys the reassurance of routine tasks, they’re welcome to help us do small tasks around the home. Some residents like to make or change their bed or dust their room, while others like to fold laundry or water the plants. We believe that living in a care home is no barrier to doing the everyday tasks that provide a sense of purpose.
Our Facebook page is the perfect way to keep up-to-date with goings-on at Abney Court.
