Liverpool care home celebrates the spirit of nursing with a special day for a resident

11/03/2024

Walton Manor Care Home in Liverpool recently celebrated one of its own residents, a former nurse, by granting her wish to don her nursing tunic once more and be part of the caregiving team for a day.

Teresa, who dedicated many years to the nursing profession, expressed her desire to assist the care team daily. In response, the team at Walton Manor, always looking for innovative ways to enhance their residents' lives, provided her with a spare tunic and allowed her to engage in a variety of non-clinical, supportive tasks alongside the staff.

Toni Stirrup, the home manager at Walton Manor, shared her thoughts on this unique initiative: "We're deeply moved by the enthusiasm and spirit of Teresa. It was a joy to see her light up, wearing her tunic and being part of the team.

“This experience not only brought immense joy to her but also inspired our staff and other residents. It's a beautiful reminder of the diverse backgrounds and rich histories our residents bring to our home."

This initiative is part of Walton Manor's broader approach to resident care, which focuses on individuality, dignity, and the celebration of each resident's life story.

Walton Manor is managed by Healthcare Management Solutions. It is rated as ‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission.
