The podcast from Oakland Care.
Welcome to the Care2Share podcast by Oakland Care, a luxury care home provider in the South East of England.
Moving a loved one into a care home is an extremely emotionally difficult decision for most people to make. There are also so many practical questions surrounding the process of choosing a care home, moving in and what life is like for residents living in an elderly care home.
This podcast aims to answer some of these questions and show you what life is like inside our care homes. Elderly care homes are often portrayed negatively, especially in the media. This podcast also aims to dispel these misconceptions and show you the positive and heart-warming side of elderly care for residents and those who work in our care homes.
In each episode, guests will join us to cover a range of subjects surrounding elderly care. However, information can be helpful for anyone as it is something we may all need to consider at some point.
Hosted by Rachel Tiff.
