Harvest Festival Celebrations

A wonderful afternoon celebrating and giving thanks for this years harvest . A huge thank you to Sarah for creating this fabulous display, and as ever, thank you to Jan for the delicious ploughman’s lunch, everyone loved it but the biggest thank you has to go to everyone who sent in donations for our food bank parcel. We asked for help and you delivered, that includes staff, family, friends and residents . As we know food banks are being used more and more, and families are increasingly relying on them. Your kindness and generosity will help so many in need, thank you so much . We will drop our parcel of food donations down to Bromyard food bank later this week, you are all superstars.

So delighted with this award we have just received our Gold Standards Framework (GSF) Quality Hallmark Award for delivery of end of life care.This means so much to us as a team Life is for living, and about living well, this is the ethos of Highwell House, but when our life approaches it’s natural end, it’s about ensuring we receive the right care, by the right people, in the right place, at the right time, every time. Team Highwell commit to this every single day. It takes knowledge, skill, commitment, dedication, team working, forward thinking, planning and effective communication.

Herefordshire Care Homes Launches their Well-being Wheel

The launch of the Wellbeing Wheel! A tool to help us delve deeper into what constitutes a perfect day for our residents. It will help us understand what matters most, what helps them feel safe, where they like to spend their time, and how they like to spend it. We will find out what helps our residents feel healthy, what helps them feel independent, and what feeds not only their body, but their soul too! Finally, its important to still have goals and aspirations no matter what age, so we will endeavor to find out what goals our residents are yet to achieve so we can support them to achieve them. The staff tried it out first with some fabulous results . We’ll be chatting to residents and their families and friends all about it in the coming days and trialing it to see how we can help to achieve the most Perfect Day possible.
