There are so many heroes at Halstead Hall, we wanted to give people the opportunity to recognise someone who has helped you, or done something special for you. We have launched a new heroes board at Halstead hall which is located outside the dining room with lots of blank hearts and instructions on how the board works. You can pick a heart to write about someone you appreciate and what they did to make you smile, then stick it onto our board for everyone to see. Staff, residents and visitors are all welcome to write a message for our heroes and help make someone’s day.
The Comforting Magic of Animals in Dementia Care
At Stow Healthcare, we see every day how meaningful connection, familiar routines and moments of comfort can make a real difference to those living with dementia. One beautiful example of this is the special bond many of our residents share with animals. Across our homes, animals play a much-loved role in daily life.
