ACTIVITIES
We aim to provide a wide range of organised and informal activities for residents of all abilities and interests. Residents are encouraged to continue existing interests and activities, take up new ones, or play a part in the day to day running of the home if they wish. We have an activities advisor to support and co-ordinate the work of local activities staff.

CUISINE
Meals are prepared each day by the chef, using fresh ingredients. There is always a varied menu offering an interesting and nutritious diet. Meals are usually taken in the dining room, but residents may choose to eat in their rooms if they prefer - it's their choice. Our chefs are experienced in catering for special dietary or cultural requirements, and residents' requests are always welcome.

VISITORS
We know how important it is for residents to stay in touch with family and friends, so guests are always welcome. There are no set visiting times, and it is up to you whether you meet your visitors in the lounge, the garden or the privacy of your own room.

SECURITY
Security is a major aspect of our caring service. Whilst being careful not to restrict the lives and freedom of our residents, we maintain a close control and awareness on all aspects relating to internal and external security.

LIBRARY
The home has a dedicated library room where residents can go and read books and daily newspapers. Books are supplied by Mitchell Library. Should any resident require a specific book, this can be ordered via the activity co-ordinator.

Everest Care Home has a full time activity coordinator, who plans and implements a weekly programmes which includes activities, outings and events.
