Programmes
6/10
✓
We observed... activity co-ordinator enjoying an arts and crafts session in the home's 'colour cave'... People enjoyed... going shopping... swimming... gym activities
Points to consider
Activities are regular with a coordinator but basic like arts, crafts, outings and gym, so the role lacks specialist programmes that add real variety.
We observed three people, three social care works and the activity co-ordinator enjoying an arts and crafts session in the home's 'colour cave'. People enjoyed one on one time with social care workers going shopping in Gloucester, or going for a drive... gym activities.
