As we reflect on the incredible success of our 2024 Community Enablement Team and Enablement Care summer fair, we are thrilled to share some exciting news. Thanks to the overwhelming support and generosity of everyone who participated, we have raised an astounding £481!
Whether you contributed by attending, donating, volunteering, or simply spreading the word, each of you played a vital role in making this day a success. We are immensely grateful for your support!
We hope that everyone who joined us had a truly enjoyable day, filled with good memories and a strong sense of community. The atmosphere was vibrant, and it was heartwarming to see so many people coming together to make a difference.
Over the next week, we will share our plans for using the funds raised to support our service users. Once again, a huge thank you to everyone who made this event possible. Your kindness and generosity are deeply appreciated.
Stay tuned for more updates on how we will be putting these funds to good use. Thank you for being a part of something truly special.
We enjoyed a delightful three-mile walk around Shipley Country Park last week. The weather was pleasant, not too hot, making it perfect for our outing. Along the way, everyone had fun identifying various plants and trees, and we entertained ourselves with a lively game of I-spy. We concluded our walk at the visitor centre, where we relaxed with a lovely drink and some delicious cake.
Enablement Care continuously strives to provide the best possible care for our residents. In our ongoing efforts to enhance transparency and communication, we are excited to announce the integration of Log My Care into our daily operations.
Log My Care is a cutting-edge care management system that simplifies and improves the way we document and monitor the care we provide. This user-friendly platform allows our staff to easily record care activities, track resident progress, and ensure that every individual receives personalised and attentive care. With real-time updates and comprehensive records, our team can efficiently manage all aspects of care, from medication administration to daily activities.
One of the most exciting features of Log My Care is its ability to connect families with their loved ones’ progress. We understand how important it is for families to stay informed and involved, especially when they cannot visit as often as they would like. To bridge this gap, we have sent invitations to families, giving them access to the Log My Care platform.
Families who accept our invitation can log into Log My Care and view real-time updates about their significant person’s daily activities, health status, and overall well-being. This includes information on meals, medications, physical activities, and special notes from our care staff. By providing this access, we aim to foster a sense of reassurance and connection, ensuring that families are always in the loop regarding their loved one’s care.
Families can see detailed records of the care their loved one is receiving, promoting trust and transparency.
Real-time updates help alleviate concerns, as families can monitor the well-being of their loved ones anytime, anywhere.
Families can communicate more effectively with our care team, facilitating better coordination and understanding of their loved one’s needs.
We have already started sending out invitations to families, and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. If you have not yet received an invitation or need assistance setting up your account, please get in touch with our team. We are here to help you through every step of the process and ensure you can easily access the information you need.
Log My Care is just one of the many ways we are working to enhance the quality of life of our residents and their families. We are excited about the positive impact this will have and look forward to continuing to innovate and improve our services.
Thank you for your continued trust and support.
For more information or assistance with Log My Care, please contact our team at enquiries@challengect.co.uk or call us on 01623 397750.
We had a delightful group session, with some participants dropping in to say hello and others staying to cook and eat together. We all prepared delicious cheese and onion flans to accompany our salad, using fresh produce from our community allotment—truly a “field to fork” experience. The flans were incredibly tasty, and we saved some for our service users to take home to their families.
To top off the day, we made pancakes generously topped with sugar and orange, which were an absolute hit. A big well done to everyone who participated for their hard work. Special thanks to Louise and Lee for keeping everything on track. We’re all looking forward to next week!
It was another productive day with AW, AB, TG, Lisa, and Anthony. We made significant progress in clearing the thick weeds and nettles along the walkways, making the area much more pleasant and safer to walk through. Lisa, AB, and TG helped plant radish seeds in the raised beds and harvested some lettuce for Wednesday’s salad. AW prepared a small plot and planted sweet corn, while AB prepared the ground and planted two courgette plants.
We wrapped up our efforts at Enablement Care, where we recharged with a delicious lunch of meatloaf and dessert.
We are excited to start a new tradition! We invite all service users and residents to Brierley Park for an afternoon of games and a picnic.
We’ll be using public transport, so feel free to meet up and join us for the journey.
More details will be shared in the coming weeks. Stay tuned!
The weather was perfect today for the walking club’s excursion to Dovedale. After applying plenty of sunscreen, we set off on our walk. Some group members were initially apprehensive about crossing the stepping stones over the river. Still, their worry quickly turned to excitement once they successfully made it across and realised what they had accomplished.
Upon reaching the top of the hill, we enjoyed a delightful picnic prepared by Donna, our wonderful cook at Enablement Care. The picnic featured delicious sandwiches, refreshing soft drinks, and a much-needed sugar boost from some biscuits. The scenery was breathtaking, making for a thoroughly wonderful day out.
Dovedale is certainly a place we would love to revisit!
