Julie I would advise you to ask for further details on proceedures within this home as interaction with patients /residents in nursing and care homes is extremely important.

Caring does not and should not be confined to feeding and toileting .

Best of luck

.................woooooo i'd check it out a bit more. I work in an E.M.I. home and yes we do those things BUT we also spend time with the residents, talking , playing games, anything to occupy them.
We have a hairdresser come in once a week, and a lady comes in to do nails twice a week. Outside entertainment comes in, and for those that are able, we take to the shops in the village.


We have singing sessions, as well as dancing, some join in, maybe for just a few minutes, others watch, but enjoy(I hope).

Any help??
