BUSINESS: Hazelwell Lodge takes part in national Care Home Open Day

THE Hazelwell Lodge specialised residential care home in Ilminster is taking part in the Care Home Open Day on Friday (June 16, 2017).

The idea behind the day is to encourage local people to visit care homes in their community and to work together to develop better relationships.

This important connection is something that Hazelwell Lodge in Station Road, Ilminster, has nurtured since opening in 1987 and the home is already acting as a community hub, including working with the local Dementia Action Alliance, scout groups and schools.

As part of the Care Home Open Day 2017, Hazelwell Lodge is hosting an open day between 10am to 3pm and staff invite you all to attend and if desired join in with the many activities on offer throughout day.

Claire Kingdon, registered manager at the home, said: "This is a great way to show the excellent services on offer and the fantastic work that goes on here at the Lodge.

“Some people still have misconceptions about care homes so we are keen to dispel any myths and for people to come and have a look around, meet the staff and our residents."
