☀️ Heatwave Care at Parton House Care Home....
As temperatures climb this week, we’re taking extra care at Parton House Care Home in Churchdown to keep our residents cool, hydrated, and comfortable.
Warm weather can be especially challenging for older adults, so here’s how we’re making sure everyone stays safe and well during the heat:
💧 Plenty of Hydration – We’re offering drinks throughout the day, including water, squash, and cool treats like fruit and ice lollies.
🌿 Shaded Outdoor Areas – Residents can enjoy time outside in the fresh air while staying out of direct sun.
👕 Cool, Comfortable Clothing – Light, breathable fabrics and wide-brim hats help beat the heat.
🪭 Well-Ventilated Spaces – We’re keeping rooms cool with fans, open windows, and curtains drawn during peak sun hours.
🧴 Sun Protection – Sunscreen and minimal outdoor activity during the hottest times (11am–3pm) help keep skin protected.
💙 Supportive Care – Our team is regularly checking in with each resident, encouraging rest and comfort throughout the day.
We’re committed to making sure everyone at Parton House enjoys the summer safely.
Please remember to check in on elderly neighbours and loved ones at home too – a little care goes a long way. 🌼
