Health and Wellbeing
At Hopwood Court we believe that keeping the mind and body active is vitally important and as such we place a huge emphasis on having fun through daily activities and regular outings.
Daily Activities & Visits
At Hopwood Court we encourage our residents to continue to enjoy as wide a range of individual and group activities possible. On a daily basis we run activities including exercise and musical movement sessions, flower arranging, board games, bingo, dominos, walks in the garden, books, gardening, baking cakes, singalong sessions, craftwork, musical entertainment and outings.
The activities organisers' aim is to maintain residents current hobbies whilst encouraging the development to explore new ones. Our organisers are involved in working with individuals & with small groups of people. We always allow our residents to choose how they spend their recreation time whether than be relaxing alone or engaging with others.
​
Regularly we plan days out with our residents with visits to local garden centres and shopping centres, pubs and restaurants and occasionally attend tea dances or enjoy visiting entertainment.
Throughout the year we love to celebrate seasonal periods with our Summer Fete being a fun social event which is enjoyed by our residents and families. To keep up to date with our daily activities and events please subscribe to our newsletter & follow our Facebook page.
Dining Experience
We recognise that food and drink play an important part in the social life of the home. We try to provide a welcoming environment in the dining room and to ensure that meals are pleasant, unhurried occasions providing opportunities for social interaction as well as nourishment. As far as possible, we encourage residents to choose where they sit in the dining room, and meals can be served in residents’ own rooms if desired.
Our menus are changed on a regular basis for lunch and evening meals. We always offer a choice at meals time with the menus being created by our residents. We cater for special and therapeutic diets as advised by specialist staff and as agreed in each resident’s care plan, and care staff are available to provide discreet, sensitive and individual help with eating and drinking for those needing it.
