We help residents live meaningful lifestyles

Live the life you choose at Care UK

Life doesn’t stop when you move into a care home. We believe residents should be able to continue to choose how they spend their days after they begin their care journey. That’s why our teams are trained to support them to live fulfilling lives. 

Our dedicated Lifestyle teams do everything they can to make each day enjoyable and meaningful for residents. They work closely with residents and their families, getting to know them as individuals so they can tailor activities and outings to their unique interests and hobbies. We’ll support your loved one to stay active and continue doing the things they love, as well as trying new pastimes, all while enjoying making new friendships in bright and welcoming surroundings. 

Our approach to award winning care

Meaningful lifestyles

When your loved one moves into a Care UK home, we’ll learn everything we can about them – from their past experiences to their hobbies and daily routines – and we'll use this information to make every aspect of their time with us enjoyable. We’ll always support residents to live as actively and independently as possible, whether that’s by taking on a role in the home, staying involved with community groups or simply making their own drinks. It’s all part of what we call ‘meaningful lifestyles’.

Activities and outings

Engaging activities are at the very heart of living in a Care UK care home. From music sessions and live entertainment to seated exercises or afternoon tea, our Lifestyle teams organise activity programmes that bring new opportunities for socialising and fun every day. Some homes have their own minibus so residents can enjoy a jaunt to the countryside or a trip to the seafront if that’s what they wish. For those who like a quieter life, our colleagues love to simply chat over coffee and cake too.

Keeping active

Whether it's taking a walk in the fresh air or getting the blood pumping with a dementia-friendly yoga session, there are countless ways to stay active in a Care UK care home. Physical activity is known to have positive benefits for older people, including those living with dementia. Our Lifestyle teams support residents to keep their brains and bodies fit by organising safe and engaging exercises that are personalised to their needs and abilities.

Use of technology

When cutting-edge technologies hit the market, our teams jump at the opportunity to evaluate how they can support residents to live fulfilling lifestyles. Care UK care homes use innovative devices like interactive tables to offer engaging entertainment, from games and quizzes to music. Some are even designed to support people living with dementia with special sensory stimulations or reminiscence sessions.
