The team at Anchor - Berkeley Court care home Leeds have been celebrating after being classed as ‘good’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC), the second highest rating possible.

The CQC’s robust inspection process gives care homes a rating of outstanding, good, requires improvement, or inadequate based on five categories. Berkeley Court care home was rated good in the three categories inspected.

The CQC inspectors were impressed by colleagues at Berkeley Court respecting people’s preferences and choices and encouraging independence. Inspectors noted that Anchor colleagues were kind and respectful and ensured that people had access to the care and support they required.

Well done to the team at Overstone House who recently completed a challenging 26-mile walk in support of Alzheimer's Society, raising £4435 for the vital cause.

The walk marks just one of several community initiatives at Overstone House. The team's fundraising efforts continue with another event in August - a local community dog show and funday where all monies raised will go to Veterans with Dogs, a charity that supplies therapy dogs to veterans.

How can I stay cool when I'm at home?
Keep blinds down and windows closed when it's cooler inside than out.
A cool batch or shower, or a damp cloth or a splash of water on the back of your neck can be better at cooling you down than a fan.
Most medication should be kept below 25°C – so it might be best to keep it in the fridge when it's really hot.
Check your skin every few months and keep an eye on any moles. If you notice any changes to their colour or shape, or if they bleed, don't hesitate to go and talk to your doctor.
Drink plenty of water to avoid getting dehydrated, but avoid alcohol as it can dehydrate you.
Keep eating even if you're not feeling too hungry. Try to eat more food that's cold and has a lot of water in it, like fruit or salad.
