100th Birthday Celebrations at The Chocolate Works Care Village

Wednesday 8th July marked a very special day at The Chocolate Works Care Village, York where Kath, resident of over 2 years, celebrated her 100th birthday! Staff organised a party for residents to celebrate this monumental day, with lots of dancing and a beautifully designed and delicious cake.

Despite being unable to have the usual birthday celebrations with family and friends, Kath and residents were in high spirits and having lots of fun. The staff cannot be thanked enough for making sure that Kath had the most special day and that she was able to spend some time with family and friends thanks to modern technology and our very caring staff. All residents have been able to stay in touch with their loved ones through the homes personal tablets and phones, something residents and relatives have been extremely grateful for.

Springfield Healthcare are delighted that residents are experiencing normality within the homes, although care staff are taking lots of precautions with social distancing and infection prevention guidelines being adhered too at all times.  Our number one priority is to keep residents safe and happy! Thank you to all care staff, nurses and the management team for always going above and beyond to care for residents.
