Park care staff treat the elderly with a pirate-themed celebration
The centre is an NPO which provides 24-hour nursing care to frail long-term and short-term residents.
Park Care residents enjoyed a Pirates and the Caribbean-themed party held on November 11.
Park Care staff and family members adhered to the theme with their eye patches, boots and leather pants.
Social work manager at the centre Lorraine le Roux said the event was a Park Care initiative hosted by the social workers.
“It was a fun day for the residents and their family members. There were a few competitions and prizes which were won. We are very limited in the events we can host for our elderly but today was a success.”
Le Roux added that the residents are happy to have the party. She added that the event was a bonus one before their Christmas carols event but the centre usually celebrated special days, such as Valentine’s, Father’s and Mother’s days.
