A poem of positivity from residents at Morris Care’s Oldbury Grange Nursing Home
To protect our home from covid-19
We can only see loved ones on a computer screen
We are not isolated we are surrounded by staff
Who care for our needs with a smile and a laugh
Mothering Sunday is at the weekend
So this message to loved ones we wish to send
Although we are isolating from covid-19
We have access to FaceTime so we can be seen
We are being looked after by wonderful staff
Who care for our needs with a smile and a laugh
They all pull together whatever their roles
There is plenty of food and toilet rolls!
So we just want to send you a hug and a kiss
To all of our families who we dearly miss
