Daily Life at Ghyll Royd

Activities

Every day is different here at Ghyll Royd Care Home, and residents can choose for it to be as restful or as eventful as they choose. We work hard with our residents to establish their own personal routine.

We have four dedicated Activity Coordinators who organise an activity programme for our residents. This varied programme helps to keep residents engaged and supports their well-being. Activities include music, reminiscence and sensory, as well as marking specific dates in the calendar with arts and crafts, special menus, and celebrations. We also spend each day talking about the daily news and engaging in one-to-one time with each resident.

We work hard to ensure that all our residents are included within our activities, regardless of their abilities. We apply a person-centred approach to our activities programme to ensure we are offering something to suit everyone in the Home.

We extend a warm welcome to family and friends to visit at any time, join in on special events, and be part of our Home community.

All our homes are signed up to the Oomph Wellness On Demand platform which compliments the existing activity provision and aims to promote wellbeing of body, mind and soul through a range of activities, exercise  and entertainment.

Trips Out

Organised outings are planned throughout the year, with reoccurring popular events, such as our boat trip on the Leeds Liverpool canal and a tour of the Christmas lights.

Our dedicated minibus driver works across all four Spellman Care Homes, allowing residents to go on trips and attend external activities regularly.
