In case you didn’t know, a Starliner is a 1960s’ Ford car, and very stylish too! Residents were lining up to have their photo taken with it at a recent Vintage Tea Party we held.

Our full-time Activity Coordinator at Adelaide Care Home always finds stimulating things to do and places to visit. The home has its own minibus, which is always ready for an airing. We are keen on using modern technology to the best advantage: Skyping keeps friends and family who may be far away in close touch, and iPads are an excellent resource to use in programmes for those with memory loss. All these things contribute to the enrichment of residents’ lives. |
