Bev, along with the help of Charlie, one of our carers organised our first 'staff performance' for the residents and this went down really well. 

Bev has also been successful in encouraging residents to join in with activities that have not necessary preferred to join in for a long time, but have seen the jolly atmosphere that Bev creates and residents have all commented on the laughs and fun they have had. Bev is ensuring that residents are constantly stimulated during the lockdown period and is always an ear to listen to if anyone needs it. 

We wish Bev a successful career as our Activities Co-ordinator. 

Lucky
Nazareth Lodge Puppy

Lucky's job is simple - to make our residents and staff smile every day.  This is a role that he performs expertly!

At Nazareth Lodge, we believe that having animals around the home on a daily basis actually helps our residents feel more at home.  Having pets can help reduce blood pressure and improve overall cardiovascular health. It can also release endorphins that produce a calming effect that can help reduce stress and pain and improve cognitive performance.
