Peace of mind

Moving into a care home can be daunting

Rest assured, our care team are here to make sure that making the move is as easy as possible for you and your loved one. If you still need reassurance, here are some stories from our residents, their families and our care team.

We recently enjoyed an outdoor concert courtesy of Wiltshire Rural Music. They are a charity who bring live music to communities within Wiltshire and they kindly offered to perform in the garden.

Red Rose Day was celebrated at Ashmead recently. In addition to the beautifully made and presented "rose" cakes for all residents to enjoy in afternoon tea, all residents were given an individual rose each to symbolise care from all the staff team.

John, Phil and Graham who all live at Brunel House always enjoy their trip to the local garden centre. The gentlemen's knowledge about plants and gardening is amazing and we all picked up plenty of tips. After having a look round we all enjoyed a lovely lunch at the centre.

The people who live at Princess Lodge are busier than ever. Arts and crafts remain a favourite past time, so there was plenty of smiles for National Smile Day and as soon as the sun was out we took our painting into the garden.

On the news, we always hear a lot of praise for doctors, nurse, teachers, and care staff but we here at Appletree feel that we don't hear enough praises for the domestic staff, cleaners, activities, and our maintenance

Thank you
