A daughter’s gift of family memories

Christmas may be over, but a post-festive gift brought precious memories flooding back for our St Catherine’s Nursing Home resident, Pat Walker, when the special delivery arrived from her daughter, Sue.

The beautifully framed collection of four black and white photos shows off some of Pat’s close relatives and each picture was taken during an era Pat remembers well.

Shortly after the gift arrived, Family Liaison Manager, Joanne Bulford spent time looking at the photos with Pat and chatting about the people she clearly remembered so fondly.

“As soon as I brought the framed photos along for Pat her face lit up and she told me each person’s name,” said Joanne. “It’s a fantastic way to keep Pat’s memories alive and clearly makes her very happy.”

The pictures are now displayed on the wall in Pat’s room where she can visit her memories at any time of the day or night.
