When blessed with good weather, our residents enjoy games sessions in the garden – we have our own versions of tennis, darts and netball. Although skills may have slipped with age, and perhaps residents aren’t as agile as they were, we are of the firm belief that all exercise is good, both for the body and mind. Excursions to the nearby ‘Autumn Centre’ for chair exercise too are also offered for residents.
Read moreOur enthusiastic activity co-ordinators keep everyone busy with new and interesting things to do. If not exercising, perhaps playing musical bingo, having a manicure, dressing up for one of our many themed events or a massage or taking part in a quiz. Family and friends can always keep in touch with what is going on within Glenmoor House Care Home through our Facebook page, which includes recordings of some of our favourite activities as well as regular updates of upcoming events.
Read moreAt our nursing home in Corby, we believe that being involved with the local community is an important part of a fulfilled life. We have long-standing relations with local schools and St Ninian’s church. Children from the nearby Rockingham Primary School come and visit, and never fail to bring smiles to our faces. We enjoy getting out and about too, with the use of our own minibus we are able to take residents on regular outings. These include trips to the theatre, the ‘Autumn Centre’, West Glebe Park or just for a relaxing meal in the pub.
As well as using our garden for exercise, residents enjoy relaxing there too, and on special occasions enjoy a refreshing glass of Pimm’s and lemonade. However, it’s not out of the ordinary to find us enjoying a warming cup of tea and a slice of cake in the garden either. Aside from these delicious treats, our residents always manage to have a good appetite for the three healthy meals that are served up in our lovely dining room. Mealtimes are a great opportunity to come together and enjoy one another’s company, and the dining experience is an integral part of life at Glenmoor House Care Home.
The staff try and keep things interesting within the home, sometimes hosting themed meals, where our inventive chef will come up with delicious cuisine to suit the theme. For instance, our residents were treated to Turkish Delight when we had a belly dancer visit recently, alongside other tasty Turkish treats. At other times, there is always a good choice of dishes for residents to choose from, including traditional favourites and plenty of fresh vegetables. All of the food served at Glenmoor House is beautifully presented, and perfectly followed by a scrumptious pudding. We welcome guests to join us at mealtimes, so come along and taste for yourself.
