Spring creativity.....

Here at Orchard House, we recently held a creative session with our lovely residents. The theme was getting ready for Spring. Everyone really enjoyed the painting - their pictures of daffodils looked wonderful. Everyone should be really proud of what they achieved, and the home certainly looked lovely and bright thanks to all the beautiful flowers.

Happy St Patrick's Day!

We had a lot of laughs here at Edward House for St Patrick's Day this year. There was lots of green, orange and white about the house, not to mention on top of some of our residents' heads! Everyone really entered into the spirit of the day and had a great craic! There might even have been the odd tipple or two - we couldn't possibly say!

Mother and Son....

This is a wonderful little video of our lovely resident, Sylvia, and her son Chris having a dance in the home. Chris is a singer on cruise ships and has just returned home from his most recent excursion. Sylvia was so happy to see him and have a dance for Mother's Day!

Mother's Day at Orchard House...

On Sunday, we had the pleasure of celebrating Mother’s Day with our lovely residents and their families. It was a wonderful and heartwarming occasion filled with smiles, laughter, and special moments shared together.

Our residents truly enjoyed spending quality time with their loved ones, reminiscing, chatting, and celebrating the incredible mothers in our community. The atmosphere was full of joy and appreciation as we took the time to honour and recognise all the amazing mothers and mother figures.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the day so special. It was a beautiful celebration that created many happy memories for our residents and their families. Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums!

Happy Mother’s Day from all of of at My Care...

Mother’s Day is always a very special day in the calendar.

Today, we take time to celebrate and remember all the wonderful mums in our lives — those who are sadly no longer with us, those whose families may live far away, and those who are lucky enough to be welcoming loved ones through the door today.

For many, this day brings joy, reflection, love, and treasured memories. Whether sharing stories, looking through photographs, enjoying family visits, or simply taking a quiet moment to remember, we hold all mothers close in our hearts today.

Wishing everyone a day filled with love, comfort, and special moments.

Concentration faces at the ready....

Edward House residents got their serious looks on this week when it came around to competition and games time. We had some surprisingly competitive spirits in the house, and everyone really enjoyed pitting their skills against not only the games but also each other. There were lots of laughs and a few frustrated sighs when things didn't go quite as intended, but it was a great session for everyone's engagement, hand-eye coordination, and fine motor skills.

Happy Birthday Ron!

Our lovely Edward House resident, Ron, celebrated his Birthday on the 10th of this month. Not looking a day over 70, it's hard to believe that this was the 96th year that Ron has blown out candles and enjoyed cards, balloons, presents, and cake! He had a fab day and would like to thank everyone for making it so special for him.

Treats are coming!

Friday is treat day at Edward House, and who doesn't like a treat now and again - our lovely residents certainly do. Our oversized Treat Trolley will be making its way around the home throughout today, and residents will be making their choices. Of course, it has been known for people to have more than one treat, if not several...well, why not! Have a fun Friday everyone!

Animal Magic!....

Well, what a day we had recently at Edward House. We were very lucky to get a visit from lots of lovely animals and reptiles, whom our residents were delighted to meet. Having the animals visit the home is a sensory experience for residents and provides them with a wonderful focus. We're not sure which one was the favourite, but the bunnies seemed to get a lot of attention!

Marking World Book Day

Our lovely residents and staff at Edward House got involved with World Book Day, opting to spend the day in our pjs and taking a trip down memory lane with some familiar books. This was followed by a splendid buffet for everyone. It was great to see people reconnecting with stories they loved from the past, as well as being so engaged in the process.

My Care

My Care is a family owned business that is dedicated to providing high quality care for elderly people across the East Midlands. Our aim is to provide all our residents with safe, friendly and happy homes where they can lead fulfilling lives as part of a loving and caring community.

Everything we do at My Care is centred upon the wellbeing of our residents. All our homes have dedicated and compassionate staff teams to ensure that we not only provide everyone with the individual care they want and need, but also offer advice, friendship and comfort for families.

Our homes offer a variety of different types of care, but across our group we can provide residential care, respite care, nursing care, and more specialist care for those people living with dementia. We hope that we can help you to find the home that is just right for you or your loved one.

We encourage you to take a look at the types of care we provide and our approach to helping and supporting people in later life. Each of our homes has its own page where you can find out what makes them all special places to live.
