Social activities
At Bosworth, we place great emphasis on social activities and maintaining the type of life you have had at home, whether that is a quiet and relaxed lifestyle or an active lifestyle.
We have an activities coordinator who is responsible for residents’ social activities. We also offer various group outings to destinations chosen by our clients. As we know everyone is an individual, we also offer one to one activities where staff are available to do the things you want to do, maybe shopping, playing crib or helping with a craft you enjoy.
Food and nutrition
Main meals are generally taken in the dining room, although alternative arrangements can be made for those who wish to dine alone and many of our clients choose to have breakfast in bed, the choice is yours. The meals at Bosworth are of a high standard and are all home cooked. Special medical diets can be catered for and you will always be offered a choice from a wide variety of delicious meals.
Our cook will meet with clients to determine their likes and dislikes and he is always available to discuss alternatives to the regular menu. Clients are involved in the review and change of menus on a regular basis. We enjoy all the various celebrations throughout the year, from New Year and Burn’s night, through saints’ days, Easter, Birthdays and of course Christmas.
Mealtimes are really important to us. We encourage our residents to eat together as there are so many social and nutritional benefits.
However, people can choose to eat their meals in private too, if they prefer. If the weather’s warm enough, we might eat outside. We also encourage families to come and join their loved ones for meals.
