St Clair: Fitness & Health

Meeting Care Needs

Individual care needs are met by agreeing an appropriate care plan with the individual, their carers and any related professional working with them.

Social facilities exist within the centre for meeting care needs and staff have appropriate training including moving and handling skills.

We have links with the area social work teams and community health teams.

Promoting Healthy Eating

In the training kitchen, centre members are able to practise and learn new skills, taking into account health and safety issues. The focus is on a well balanced diet.

The groups discuss healthy eating, budgeting, food hygiene. They also go to the local shops to buy provisions and then the meal is cooked in the recently refurbished kitchen. 

Promoting Fitness

Individuals wherever possible are encouraged to participate in physical activity ranging from the popular centre keep-fit exercise group, which is effective, light hearted and fun, to the more serious competitive sports or challenging activities such as hill walking.
