Ann’s special day began with a heartfelt visit from her family, who showered her with warm wishes and thoughtful gifts. One present in particular brought a big smile to her face – a mug that read: “Grannysaurus – like a normal granny but more awesome.”
The humorous gift had Ann giggling with joy and eager to enjoy her next cup of tea in her new favourite mug.
The celebration continued into the afternoon as the dedicated care team at Adelaide House surprised Ann with a beautifully decorated birthday cake. With everyone gathered around, a cheerful rendition of ‘Happy Birthday’ rang through the home. Ann, beaming with happiness, blew out her candle with enthusiasm and laughter, bringing smiles to everyone around her.
Bronwyn Dobie, Wellbeing Coordinator at HC-One’s Adelaide House Care Home said:
“It was such a lovely day, filled with warmth, joy, and laughter. Ann’s positivity is infectious, and it was a privilege to celebrate this milestone with her. The celebrations reflect the person-centred care and community spirit that define life at Adelaide House Care Home. Happy 91st Birthday, Ann – from everyone at Adelaide House!”
