There were mixed emotions at Goldenley Care Home as they bid farewell to Carer, Gina as she headed into retirement.
Gina was a much-loved member of the team, a dedicated carer and popular with all of the people who live at Goldenley, so they wanted to ensure they made her last day, one to remember. To do this, they hosted a leaving party with the people living at Goldenley.
Music played in the background and a variety of drinks and snacks were available. Residents and team members began by giving Gina leaving cards and gifts to show just how appreciated she was. Each card contained special messages about the impact she has had at the Goldenley, how she will be sorely missed but also well wishes for the future.
As they enjoyed refreshments throughout the party, they reminisced about some of the memorable times they had shared with Gina and had lots of fun doing so. It brought back lots of happy memories and filled the home with laughter and smiles.
Before heading off, Gina enjoyed a final singing session with residents and team members, before saying farewell to her Goldenley family.
Gina will be missed by all, but everyone at Goldenley wishes her the best for a long and healthy retirement.
