✨ Festive Fun in Bolton-le-Sands! ✨

πŸ°πŸ’š A very sweet surprise! πŸ’šπŸ°

One of our amazing clients very kindly gifted the office some fabulous brownies and cakes from The Ginger Bakers - and we’d be lying if we said they didn’t disappear the same day! πŸ˜‹

A huge thank you to Fred for such a thoughtful and delicious gift. We truly appreciate your kindness and generosity πŸ’š

✨ Fun fact: Fred also created one of our Care Professional Christmas cards this year - how talented is that!

Moments like these remind us how lucky we are to be part of such a wonderful community.

πŸŽ„πŸŒ™ Only 4 more sleeps until Christmas! πŸŒ™πŸŽ„

Merry is all tucked up and off to bed - even busy elves need their rest! πŸ§β€β™€οΈβœ¨

We’ve had lots of fun throughout December, but it’s just as important to slow down, rest, and recharge when we need to. A good night’s sleep doesn’t just help us feel brighter the next day - it can boost our mood, support our mental wellbeing, and keep our bodies healthier and stronger. πŸ’›

As we count down the final sleeps to Christmas, let’s all make time to rest, recover, and look after ourselves.

Since moving from purple to green, our bag style has had a makeover too. Now, our Care Professionals can choose between a beautiful green rucksack or a navy blue shoulder bag (similar to the old style).

We want our team to be as comfortable and supported as possible while out providing exceptional care – because happy, well-equipped Care Professionals make a real difference for our clients! πŸ’šπŸ’™

πŸ’š Ongoing Training = Outstanding Care! πŸ’š

Today we welcomed Kathryn, Thomas, and Claudia into the office for their annual mandatory training.

This training is a recap of previously gained knowledge and ensures all our Care Professionals are still following the correct procedures and standards of Home Instead. We covered:
βœ”οΈ Medications
βœ”οΈ Moving & Handling
βœ”οΈ Basic Life Support (BLS)
βœ”οΈ Clients’ well-being

It’s always wonderful to see our Care Professionals in person! 🌿 They’re usually busy out in the field, so having them in the office gives us a great chance to reconnect, answer questions, and make sure they’re fully restocked with PPE.

We also want to celebrate their amazing milestones:
πŸŽ‰ Kathryn – 5 years with Home Instead South Lakes
πŸŽ‰ Thomas – 2 years
πŸŽ‰ Claudia – just finished her first year πŸŽ‰

We’re so grateful for their dedication and continued commitment to care. πŸ’š

At Home Instead South Lakes, keeping our Care Professionals up to date with the latest best practices is essential. Regular training ensures they feel confident, competent, and supported, helping us maintain the highest standards of safety and quality for our clients.

Ongoing learning allows us to respond to new challenges, refresh vital skills, and continue delivering compassionate, person-centred care every day.

πŸ‘ Great work, team – you make a difference every day! 🌿

πŸŽ„ Mischief alert! Our office elf, Merry, was caught on a mission… trying to steal the blue gloves! πŸ˜…

At Home Instead South Lakes, staying protected and safe is one of our top priorities. All our Care Professionals are fully trained and always armed with blue gloves, aprons, and masks, ready for any eventuality.

Blue gloves aren’t just for show – they’re an essential part of keeping both our clients and Care Professionals safe. They’re used for:
- Personal care tasks, such as washing or dressing, to maintain hygiene
- Meal preparation and feeding, to ensure cleanliness and food safety
- Cleaning and handling laundry, to prevent cross-contamination
- Administering medication, to protect everyone involved

By wearing the right protective equipment, our team can provide compassionate care while staying safe and professional. Even Merry the elf can’t resist the blue gloves – they’re clearly important! 🧀✨
