Brackenlea Care Home showing their dancing skills

Brackenlea Care Home in Shawford, Hampshire have been showing off their dancing skills and supplies of Toiletries and Sanitizer in a positive light after visitors were stopped and as a precaution staff have been made to wear full protective coveralls and face masks.

ResidBrackenlea Care Home - Coronavirusents and staff can be seen happily dancing to Elvis Presley’s Rock around the Clock whilst holding packs of toilet tissues and hand sanitizes. The staff continue to do a fantastic job to protect all residents, by ensuring the Home is stocked up with essentials and entertaining both the residents and each other.

Unfortunately visitors have been stopped from coming to the home to prevent the spread of Covid-19 with alternative options being offered to stay in touch with their loved ones, such as using Skype and FaceTime.

Stef, who is the Activities Coordinator has said that the residents all think we all look funny in our temporary uniform and it hasn’t worried them. Our number 1 priority is the health and safety of our residents who range from early 70’s to 100 years old.

Lovely gesture by the Flower Factory for the staff and residents at Brookvale House

During these difficult times, the smallest token of appreciation can go a long way. So imagine the reaction the staff at Brookvale House had when local florist The Flower Factory in Bevois Valley, Southampton donated these lovely flowers to the staff and residents at the Care Home. Thank you it has really given the Home a lift during these tough times.
