Zoo Lab visit Bolton Care Home!

Residents at HC-One’s Four Seasons Care Home in Bolton enjoyed a visit from some unusual animals when Zoo Lab visited the home.

Staff at Four Seasons organised for the Zoo Lab to visit the Residents with exotic animals including a snake, bat, tarantula and even some creepy crawlies such as millipedes. The Zoo Lab representatives have a lovely relationship with the Residents and took the animals around the room giving each Resident the opportunity to touch and hold them. All the residents were keen to get involved and really enjoyed holding the unusual creatures.

The visit from the Zoo lab is a really enjoyable and therapeutic experience for the Residents and they are looking forward to a future visit from the Zoo lab.

HC-One Four Seasons Care Home Manager, Carol Dwyer, said: “It is great to have such an unusual activity at Four Seasons, and we are definitely keen for Zoo Lab to visit us again.”

“The Residents had a brilliant time with all the animals, and it was lovely that they all got involved with the activity.”

HC-One Area Director, Nicola Garner, said: “Zoo Lab’s visit to Four Seasons sounds like an excellent activity, and it’s great to hear that the Residents has such a good time!”
