At Silver Oaks, we believe in making dreams come true, no matter how big or small. For our cherished resident, Kath, one heartfelt wish had lingered in her heart for decades: to locate her mother’s grave. What began as a distant hope turned into a heartwarming journey of discovery, perseverance, and community.
Welcome to our November newsletter! As the days grow shorter and the leaves fall, we’ve been keeping spirits high with a variety of fun, creative, and meaningful activities for our residents. Here’s a glimpse into the exciting events we’ve enjoyed recently and a preview of what’s to come this festive season.
Whether you’re choosing a care home for yourself, or you’re a relative wanting to help your loved one find the perfect place, there are a lot of factors to consider.
You want to find the best possible care home for you or your loved one to reside in, so here’s what you should be looking for when searching for a good care home...
A day in life of a carer at Silver Oaks is never easy but is always rewarding. Our carers put our residents’ health and happiness at the forefront of their working day. Two days working at our boutique care home are never the same.
We spoke to our carers about what their life is like working at Silver Oaks, and what their day looks like from the minute they begin, to the second they finish up for the night.
At Silver Oaks, we understand that our boutique, care home is our residents’ home too and we make every effort to ensure your loved ones are looked after and made to feel at home.
This is especially important during the winter season, when the temperature drops and the environment outside gets a lot harsher.
There are a lot of different types of care available, and even more kinds of care homes, all specialising in varied aspects of responsibilities and attention.
One type of care home that can be hugely beneficial to residents is the boutique care home. different from other care homes, like nursing and residential, simply because it’s smaller and provides a more personalised environment. But why should you consider a boutique care home for your loved one and what benefits do they have over the other types of care available.
