To test, monitor and allow residents to communicate with relatives, the prevalence of room-level connectivity within the home is becoming increasingly relevant.

Pine Villa has a good balance of activities and quiet companionship. Favourite outings include the seaside at Portobello and North Berwick, as well as museums and the Christmas pantomime. From late spring, residents enjoy sitting out in the peaceful garden, and help to plant and maintain it. The garden party with the local church is also a great success. Many residents like to keep active with chairbased movement tomusic, and staff also accompany residents on personal activities such as monthly swimming or library and cinema visits. |
