Our Residential Care Homes Admin Teams dress up for Halloween!

To celebrate Halloween, our admin staff across our residential care homes dressed up in costumes to brighten the day for all, showcasing the sense of community our HSCP strives to create within our homes.

To get into the spooky season, celebrations and parties took place in our care homes and day care centres across the city to mark Halloween. The admin staff decided to coordinate incredible costumes that carried the festivities out into the reception areas, which was great for residents and visitors alike. The teams dressed up as The Pink Ladies, The Chipmunks and more.

The event was held at Glasgow City Chambers and brought together carers, HSCP staff, carers organisations and community representatives.

Power of Attorney (PoA) Day 2024

Power of Attorney (PoA) Day 2024 is Thursday 21 November and we’re encouraging everyone to start the conversation about PoA. 

Having a PoA in place means you can nominate someone you trust to make the important decisions about your future if ill health meant you couldn’t do it for yourself. Not many people know that even if you have a next of kin, you still need a PoA to make sure your wishes are followed if you become incapacitated – it doesn’t automatically fall to your next of kin.
