Autumn flower arranging

Autumn flower arranging

Our residents love to have flowers in the home, and they have been busy making floral arrangements to brighten up Nazareth Lodge!  Everyone can have a go and you don't have to be a professional florist, just enjoy partaking in making your own unique arrangement in a vase!  All the staff appreciate the colour it brings to the home! 

Flowers dancing in the breeze,
Waving gently to the trees.
Petals shining in the sun,
Nature's colours, every one.
Daffodils in golden glow,
Tulips putting on a show.
Roses blushing, pink and red,
Violets peeping from their bed.
Busy bees go buzzing by,
Butterflies dance in the sky.
Little daisies, white and sweet,
Sprinkle magic at our feet.
After rain, the flowers smile,
Brightening up the world awhile.
Each small blossom, soft and fair,
Brings a little joy to share.
So stop and smell a flower today,
Let your worries drift away.
For flowers teach us, come what may,
There's beauty in each passing day!

My husband is already a resident and I have spent two weeks in respite care. I have been wonderfully cared for and feel I have recovered very quickly. I cannot fault the staff, who are so caring and gentle and always cheerful. The food is lovely, well cooked and presented. There are plenty of activities organised and outings arranged for mobile residents. This is an excellent care home and its awards are well deserved.

Testimonials

I have to thank you especially for the care and support you all gave my father in his last few days. I have related stories to friends with elderly parents that your night staff for instance were singing with him during the long hours of darkness. They couldn't believe it.

Overall Experience

Testimonials

Mum moved into Nazareth Lodge on 1st March 2022. Both she and I were so relieved to find such wonderfully caring staff there. In fact, we have been exceedingly impressed by the friendly, caring and professional attitude, which extends throughout the whole team of personnel working there, towards the residents and their relatives as well as amongst each other.
Mum is now 102 years old and needs a high level of care, and she has been consistently afforded respect and kindness along with an understanding of increasing the care as her condition progresses, physically and mentally. She very quickly “adopted “ the staff as her own family, and I am so grateful to them all for the unconditional love and care they have shown my mother and also to me.
