✨ Welcome to Day 24 of our Care Christmas Countdown, and Christmas Eve 🎄
As we prepare to celebrate Christmas, today we’re focusing on Infection Prevention — helping to protect the health and wellbeing of the people we support, our colleagues, and our loved ones during this busy festive time.

🧠 Did you know?
Infections spread more easily during the winter months, which means good hygiene and infection-control practices are especially important in care settings at this time of year.

💡 How to Help Prevent the Spread of Infection:

Wash hands regularly: Effective handwashing is one of the simplest and most powerful ways to reduce infection.

Use PPE correctly: Wear gloves, masks, and aprons when required and dispose of them safely.

Clean shared spaces: Regularly disinfect high-touch surfaces such as door handles and tables.

Encourage respiratory hygiene: Cover coughs and sneezes and dispose of tissues promptly.

Stay home when unwell: Resting when sick helps protect others.

Follow care guidance: Always adhere to infection prevention policies and procedures.

As we head into Christmas Day, let’s continue to care for one another with kindness, responsibility, and compassion.
Day 24: Infection Prevention Awareness — because keeping each other safe is the greatest gift.

23/12/2025

✨ Welcome to Day 23 of our Care Christmas Countdown!
Today, we’re focusing on LGBTQ+ Inclusivity in Care — ensuring everyone feels safe, respected, and accepted for who they are.

🧠 Did you know?
Many older LGBTQ+ people in the UK report feeling unable to be open about their identity when accessing care, which highlights the importance of inclusive, respectful environments.

💡 How to Support LGBTQ+ Inclusive Care:

Use inclusive language: Avoid assumptions about gender, relationships, or identity.

Respect names and pronouns: Always use the terms a person prefers.

Create safe spaces: Make it clear that discrimination is not tolerated.

Protect privacy: Never disclose someone’s identity without consent.

Encourage openness: Let people know they can speak freely about who they are.

Challenge stigma: Address inappropriate language or behaviour respectfully and promptly.

Inclusive care means recognising and respecting every individual.
Day 23: LGBTQ+ Inclusivity Awareness — because everyone deserves to feel safe and valued.

Care Christmas Countdown

✨ Welcome to Day 22 of our Care Christmas Countdown!
Today, we’re focusing on Chronic Pain and Arthritis Awareness — recognising a condition that can affect mobility, mood, sleep, and quality of life.

🧠 Did you know?
Around 10 million people in the UK live with arthritis, and many more experience chronic pain, making it one of the most common long-term health conditions.

💡 How to Support Someone Living with Chronic Pain or Arthritis:

Believe and listen: Pain isn’t always visible — take concerns seriously.

Encourage gentle movement: Light exercise and stretching can help reduce stiffness.

Support pacing: Help people balance activity and rest to avoid flare-ups.

Use comfort measures: Warmth, supportive seating, and positioning can ease discomfort.

Promote independence: Adapt tasks rather than doing everything for the person.

Be patient and understanding: Pain can affect mood and energy levels.

With understanding and the right support, people can still enjoy comfort and independence.
Day 22: Chronic Pain & Arthritis Awareness — because compassion makes a difference.

18/12/2025

✨ Welcome to Day 18 of our Care Christmas Countdown!
Today, we’re focusing on Epilepsy Awareness — increasing understanding and helping people feel safe, supported, and confident in their care.

🧠 Did you know?
Around 600,000 people in the UK are living with epilepsy, making it one of the most common neurological conditions in the country.

💡 How to Support Someone with Epilepsy:

Know seizure first aid: Stay calm, protect the person’s head, and time the seizure.

Do not restrain or put anything in the mouth: This can cause injury.

Stay with the person: Reassure them as they recover and ensure privacy and dignity.

Be aware of triggers: Lack of sleep, stress, or missed medication can increase risk.

Support medication routines: Taking medication consistently helps reduce seizures.

Know when to seek emergency help: If a seizure lasts longer than 5 minutes or repeats without recovery.

Awareness and preparation help keep people safe.
Day 18: Epilepsy Awareness — because knowledge saves lives.

17/12/2025

✨ Welcome to Day 17 of our Care Christmas Countdown!
Today, we’re focusing on Sensory Impairments Awareness — supporting people who may experience hearing loss, sight loss, or both, and ensuring they feel included, confident, and understood.

🧠 Did you know?
Over 14 million people in the UK live with a sensory impairment, such as hearing or sight loss, which can affect communication, safety, and independence if the right support isn’t in place.

💡 How to Support Someone with a Sensory Impairment:

Communicate clearly: Face the person, speak clearly, and avoid covering your mouth.

Check the environment: Good lighting and reduced background noise make communication easier.

Use aids properly: Ensure hearing aids, glasses, or visual aids are clean, working, and worn as needed.

Explain what’s happening: Talk through tasks and movements to reduce anxiety.

Be patient and respectful: Give extra time and never assume someone’s level of ability.

Promote independence: Small adaptations can make a big difference to confidence and safety.

By adjusting how we communicate, we help people stay connected to the world around them.
Day 16: Sensory Impairments Awareness — because understanding improves inclusion.

Care Christmas Countdown

✨ Welcome to Day 16 of our Care Christmas Countdown!
Today, we’re focusing on Loneliness and Social Isolation — an issue that can affect people of all ages, especially during the festive season.

🧠 Did you know?
Around 1 in 4 older people in the UK experience loneliness at some point, which can have a serious impact on both mental and physical wellbeing.

💡 How to Support Someone Experiencing Loneliness:

Make time to talk: A simple conversation or check-in can brighten someone’s day.

Encourage social connections: Support phone calls, visits, or group activities where possible.

Include people in decisions: Feeling involved helps people feel valued and respected.

Be consistent: Regular contact builds trust and reassurance.

Notice changes: Withdrawal, low mood, or lack of interest may be signs someone is struggling.

This Christmas, let’s remember that connection matters just as much as care.
Day 15: Loneliness & Social Isolation Awareness — because no one should feel alone.

15/12/2025

✨ Welcome to Day 15 of our Care Christmas Countdown!
Today, we’re focusing on Safeguarding Awareness — ensuring everyone we support is protected, respected, and safe from harm.

🧠 Did you know?
Safeguarding concerns affect hundreds of thousands of adults across the UK each year, which shows just how important it is to stay alert and take action if something doesn’t feel right.

💡 How to Help Keep People Safe:

Know the signs: Be aware of changes in behaviour, unexplained injuries, or signs of neglect.

Listen and take concerns seriously: If someone shares something worrying, respond with care and belief.

Report concerns immediately: Always follow safeguarding procedures and inform the appropriate person.

Maintain professional boundaries: Clear boundaries protect both individuals and staff.

Promote empowerment: Encourage people to make choices and speak up about their care.

Create safe environments: Respect privacy, dignity, and personal space at all times.

Safeguarding is everyone’s responsibility.
Day 14: Safeguarding Awareness — because protection starts with awareness.
