At Stanfield Nursing Home, we take pride in providing more than just care — we deliver a lifestyle rooted in dignity, respect, and individuality. Central to our approach is our commitment to person-centred care, where every individual’s personal story, preferences, and choices shape their daily experience.
In 2025, the importance of person-centred activities in nursing homes has never been clearer. Meaningful engagements actively enhance physical health and support emotional, cognitive, and social well-being. At Stanfield, we embed this philosophy into everything we do—because we know people flourish when we see, hear, and support them as individuals
What Is Person-Centred Care?
Person-centred care is about far more than meeting physical needs. It means placing the individual at the heart of every decision, ensuring their voice guides how they live, engage, and receive support. We honour every person’s life as unique—from favourite meals and bedtime routines to long-held hobbies and new interests.
With over 30 years of experience, the Stanfield team excels in delivering this compassionate and tailored care. We take time to get to know each individual personally, learning their likes, dislikes, habits, and goals. This knowledge forms the foundation of our daily activities, which are always adapted to reflect personal choices.
Tailored Activities That Make a Difference
Our activities programme is carefully designed to suit a wide range of personalities, abilities, and passions. Evidence shows that participation in enjoyable, personalised activities leads to improved mood, increased cognitive stimulation, and stronger social bonds.
Our Activities Coordinator works closely with everyone we support to create monthly calendars filled with opportunities for engagement.
We empower people to choose how and when they take part—whether in quiet one-to-one moments or vibrant group sessions
Examples of Person-Focused Activities
Every individual at Stanfield Nursing Home is encouraged to engage in ways that feel natural and enjoyable to them. Here’s a look at the variety of activities offered:
1. Gentle Exercise
Tailored for accessibility, our exercise sessions include chair-based movement, musical aerobics, and yoga-inspired stretching – ideal for promoting physical health and keeping the body active in a safe and supportive way.
2. Arts and Crafts
Creativity is a key to expression. People enjoy painting, knitting, card-making, and seasonal crafts, with many of their creations proudly displayed throughout the home.
3. Movie Afternoons
Whether it’s an old classic or a recent favourite, our communal movie times are a relaxing and social experience. Everyone is welcome to suggest films, making it feel just like home.
4. Music Listening and Performance
Music evokes powerful emotions and memories. We host regular live performances and music appreciation sessions, where individuals can sing along or simply listen and relax.
5. Seasonal Celebrations
From birthday teas to Easter egg hunts and Christmas parties, our events calendar is always full. We personalise each celebration to ensure everyone feels part of the fun.
6. Our Sensory Garden
Designed with dementia-friendly features, our tranquil garden offers people the chance to reconnect with nature. Raised beds, aromatic herbs, and a gentle water fountain provide a peaceful space for gardening or quiet reflection.
