Nursing homes are home to some of the most remarkable and wonderful people in Irish society. Our Members consider it a great privilege to share so much of their lives with these people and to provide them with exceptional care. Residents within our nursing homes are truly inspirational. They share with us great knowledge, wisdom, advice, humility and life experience. Great characters and people live in our nursing homes. Residents have great humour, are great storytellers, provide exceptional friendship. The excellent care provided by outstanding staff in nursing homes is committed to enhancing the lives of residents. They continue to enjoy their favourite past-times and embrace new interests. They sing and dance, create arts and crafts works, enjoy games, watch movies, participate in a range of physical activities, gardening, reminisce, engage in writing and art workshops. In Spring 2018, Nursing Homes Ireland undertook this special initiative to provide some insight into the talents possessed by nursing home residents.

Gently lunging melodies combine to produce a bustling tapestry of sound. Turn literally turns over its phrases, varying upon each repetition. Once I decided to dedicate this piece to my mother, an inveterate knitter, it struck me: that’s exactly what a turn is in knitting, a reworking on top of an already established stitched pattern! On a larger level Turn pushes towards build-ups that end each time with a literal turn in direction. This in a major way constitutes the modus operandi of the piece.
