🚲 Special Bikes 🚲

We are delighted that through the Trojan work of our Pharmacist Paddy Byrne and the support and encouragement of our staff, our adaptive bikes have arrived!

Specifically designed for people with physical and neurological disabilities, adaptive bikes and tricycles offer an enhanced sense of freedom and mobility to those with Huntington’s Disease and more.

These vehicles strengthen coordination, balance, and other skills in an accessible way. They also form a bond of support between our staff and residents as they work literally in tandem.

In true Bloomfield spirit, living life to the fullest!

Onwards and Upwards…

🦌 Introducing Zevi, our Bloomfield Deer 🦌

The story of Zevi is a good one. Our CEO was out on a morning stroll when he came almost nose to nose with a deer. He managed to snap this picture and from there the hunt to name our resident deer was on.

After a hospital wide vote (complete with ballot paper) the name Zevi, proposed by a member of the Physiotherapy Department, was chosen.

Welcome to the team Zevi....
