Our approach to care

Our approach

Meaningful therapeutic activities

Meaningful therapeutic activities

Meaningful therapeutic activities are carried out in the gardens, lounges, bedrooms, sensory room and internal garden lounge area, offering group and independent meaningful and person centered activities with our patients. There is a ‘life skills’ kitchen, enabling individuals to gain or regain skills in preparation for independent living in both the male and female dining rooms. There are separate male and female garden areas designed for individuals to engage in therapeutic horticultural activities.

Castle Lodge also has a sensory room which can be used for meaningful activities and for relaxation. Castle lodge has a weekly activity plan in place which is displayed on both wards and enables the patients, carers and team to see what we have planned to do for the week.
