Watch: Capturing The Christmas Magic At Simblija Care Home
The Christmas season is a time to give thanks, to eat, drink and be merry with friends and family, and to enjoy some peace. However, for those who live alone or whose family is far away (or are taking time out over Christmas), the holiday season can leave you feeling lonely or left behind.
That’s why Simblija Care Home in Naxxar is welcoming Golden Oldies for a short-term respite stay in which to share the joy of Christmas in comfort. Simblija is a warm and welcoming home away from home: they’ve decked the halls with boughs of holly and decorated all the rooms so you can enjoy the crib, sparkling lights, and a sleigh-load of heart-warming festivities over the Christmas period. With festive traditions and gifts from Santa (if you’ve been good), they have everything laid to make your stay jolly: take your pick from a variety of seasonal social events and activities including festive feasting, seasonal crafts, cosy communal movie nights and carol sing-alongs with new friends (and old!).
It’s the perfect place to reminisce, and whenever you wish, retreat to your room for a little self-pampering or peace and quiet.
Whether it’s a few days or a couple of weeks, Simblija’s short-term respite stays offer flexibility to suit your holiday plans and it gives your family the gift of peace of mind, that their loved ones are receiving professional care this Christmas in a happy and secure environment.
Christmas is also a great opportunity to experience the best of life in an elderly home and see if it’s something that might be for you in the new year. Once you’ve thoroughly enjoyed your Christmas stay and find yourself wishing the festivities lasted longer, you might wish for an extended or permanent stay!
Simblija Care Home is run by a dedicated, experienced and compassionate team, and Activity Coordinator Fiona Debattista who organises a calendar of activities and events so that social opportunities and the camaraderie of a close-knit community continue. As well as a tailored care plan, in this supportive and nurturing environment, everyone receives personalised attention and regular enriching experiences all year round. And if that isn’t a reason to be merry, we don’t know what is!
