Mum’s the word at Bayleaf Care Home
Residents at Barchester Healthcare’s Bayleaf Care Home, in Huntingdon, celebrated Mother’s Day with visits and calls from family members near and far. The home was beautifully decorated with fresh flowers and bunting for the occasion.
Staff at Bayleaf Care Home arranged for each of their female residents to receive a beautiful bouquet of flowers before family members joined them for a special meal prepared by Head Chef, to mark the day. There was also live music in the afternoon for residents and family members to enjoy.
General Manager, Katie Wilkinson said: “We’ve all had a really lovely day. It has been so good to see family members who were able to visit in person and to have video calls with those who are further away. Our residents enjoyed a fantastic meal and then a lovely afternoon of live music. Days like these are so precious.”
Kath Royle a resident at Bayleaf Care Home, commented: “We have been so spoiled today, the staff have really gone to great lengths to make sure that the day has felt so special. It was wonderful to see my family and to be able to spend some quality time together plus we all had a fabulous meal, I absolutely loved it.”
