A group of residents at Monkscroft Care Centre in Cheltenham, aged 72 to 88, wrote and starred in a 20-minute mystery film inspired by Richard Osman’s Thursday Murder Club series. Judith Green led the project by writing the script, which was adapted to suit cast members with dementia, and filming was done entirely on an iPhone over a five-month period. The story follows the group as they search for a missing diamond ring, with residents playing characters like Agatha Crispie and Miss Marbles.

The project brought residents together, sparked new friendships, and was celebrated with a red carpet event at the care home, where families gathered to enjoy the finished film. Judith was relieved to hear laughter and see the film warmly received.

Successful medication management starts with routines that fit naturally into daily life, but it doesn’t stop there. To truly be effective, it must extend beyond the home through strong communication with healthcare providers. Every doctor, specialist, and pharmacist should have access to a complete, up-to-date medication list that includes prescriptions, over-the-counter treatments, and supplements. 💊

This ensures safer care, fewer errors, and better health outcomes.

Learn how to reduce the risk factors and what to do if someone is choking.

Kenneth Gregersen grew up in Buena Vista County, Iowa, in a rented house with no electricity or running water. But one gift changed everything, a bicycle his parents somehow managed to buy for $12 during the Great Depression. That bike became his escape, his joy, and the beginning of a lifelong love for cycling.

Life had kept him busy, raising a family, working hard, and later caring for his beloved wife, Evie, through her battle with Alzheimer’s. After she passed away five years ago, Ken found peace in morning bike rides, soaking in the fresh air and the memories they once shared.

When the Register's Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa (RAGBRAI) passed through his town of Ankeny in 2023, Ken joined for a few miles and was instantly hooked. “I need to do this before I’m too old to do anything,” he said. He trained through winter, rode solo, and leaned on family for support. On Day 2, he completed the ride from Milford to Estherville in just 4.5 hours, which was faster than he expected. He also rode Day 6, proudly wearing a neon yellow jersey with “Gregersen” and “93” printed boldly on the back.

His message to fellow riders and dreamers everywhere: “It’s never too late. Find something that excites you and pursue it. That’s what keeps you young.”

Zaveon, a caregiver with Right at Home Austin West, made a significant impact during his first weekend with George, his new client. Zaveon learned that George loved to fish, but because of his declining health, he had not been able to go in quite some time. After coordinating with George's son, they planned a fishing trip for the next morning! With Zaveon's attentive support, George was safely assisted onto a boat and provided with the necessary help for baiting hooks and navigating the water.

The fishing trip was a tremendous success, they brought 17 fish back home, rekindling his joy for the hobby. Zaveon's dedication and care exemplified Right at Home's mission of improving the quality of life for those we serve. Through his thoughtful assistance, Zaveon not only provided practical help but also restored a sense of freedom and happiness in George's life. Thank you, Zaveon!
