Love was all around at Deeside Care Home. We decided to turn Valentine's Day into Valentine's Week. The home was beautifully decorated with heart-shaped balloons and red roses, and the residents were gifted with Valentine's themed edible treats.
On the 14th, all floors had a party with a professional singer for entertainment that sang an array of classic songs. Residents couldn't help but get up on their feet and dance with one another and also with staff members.
For 3 days we had "Mr and Mrs", where one-half of the home's couples invited the other for a special, romantic afternoon tea. Our chef made delicious sandwiches, cakes and heart-shaped biscuits. Residents made their own Valentine cards and wrote messages from the heart for their significant other.
