There is evidence that residents received visits from the chiropodist and optician. Residents tend to use their own dentist or alternatively arrangements can be made with a local dentist in Bath. A private Chiropodist visits the home every six to eight weeks. Appropriate continence products are being used following resident’s assessment.

It is hoped that a sling weighing device can be purchased for residents unable to use normal scales. At present such residents have body measurements taken, which is an imprecise way to assess weight changes. In this event it is suggested that a food diary also be kept to review the at risk resident’s nutritional as well as calorie intake.

Many have good support from their relatives who are often consulted over decision-making regarding key events, etc. Residents are supported in their wishes to rise and retire at various times The home has a new qualified activities person who is working 20 hours a week to enhance the social activities for the residents. The aim is to provide accessible, meaningful and fun activities for the residents. There is more effort being made to offer social engagement with some residents on a one to one basis if they do not enjoy group activities. A programme of events was on display and relatives are always welcome to be involved if they wish. One relative stated that, “The staff are very welcoming and try and keep the people happy”. The residents were engaged in various activities throughout the day including a sing along and exercise class. Residents obviously enjoyed this.
