Staff and residents at Belmont House Care & Nursing Home celebrated carers week by thanking care staff with treats and chocolates. Carers Week is an annual campaign to raise awareness of caring, highlight the challenges carers face and recognise the contribution they make to families and communities throughout the UK. Country Court has taken the opportunity to thank its care teams and share messages of appreciation left by family and friends. One family member from Belmont House Care & Nursing Home said,
“My husband and I have all three of our parents resident at Belmont. My mum has Alzheimer’s and has been living in Belmont for over a year now, we are impressed with the home and the care that she receives. So, when it became apparent that both my in-laws, who are 92 and 90, needed full-time care in March this year, we didn’t hesitate to ring Belmont and arrange for them to join her.”
Residents wrote thank you notes to care staff and handed out gifts of sweets and chocolates. “Carers Week has been a wonderful opportunity to thank our staff and show them that we appreciate everything they do.” Said Home Manager Joanne Coldwell. “This last year has been difficult for everyone. Our staff have had so much to cope with, so it’s important to take the opportunity to show our appreciation and let people know how much they are valued.”
