Esker Rí Nursing Home

It is with great sadness that we share the news of the passing of our colleague, Sherin Abraham.

Sherin was a much-loved member of our team, known for her kindness, dedication, and the care she showed to both her colleagues and the people we support. She will be deeply missed by everyone who had the privilege of working alongside her.

We also want to recognise the courage and sacrifice shown by so many who leave their home country, families, and communities to work abroad. Building a life and career far from home takes strength and commitment. We honour that journey and the contribution Sherin made, both professionally and personally.

Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences are with Sherin’s family, friends, and all who are grieving at this very difficult time. We ask our community to continue showing compassion and support to one another.

A GoFundMe page has been created in remembrance and in honour of Sherin, to support her family. For those who wish to contribute, any support is entirely voluntary and greatly appreciated.

May Sherin rest in peace. 🤍🕊️

Lights, camera, community! 🎬✨

On Friday evening, our residents enjoyed a truly special movie night as they made use of our brand-new cinema system for the very first time. It marked our first movie night since the purchase, and what a fantastic debut it was!

The residents chose the much-loved classic Mrs. Doubtfire, and the atmosphere was filled with laughter, comfort, and shared enjoyment as everyone settled in for a wonderful evening of film. To make the night even more special, there was fresh popcorn and a selection of tasty treats, adding that authentic cinema feel and plenty of smiles all around. 🍿🍬

It was a heartwarming evening and a perfect start to many more cozy, cinematic nights to come! 🎥💛
