The residential home will host summer parties, with open-air dining and live music sessions. Casa Antonia says it places special emphasis on traditional Maltese festivities — or “festa” as the Maltese refer to them — including, but not limited to, the feast of Imnarja on 29 June and the village feast of the Annunciation.

Casa Antonia will be hosting further events such as the annual “majjalata” — a traditional Maltese food gathering — in August and fish night on 10 September.

The residents are able to attend specialised swimming sessions with an aqua therapist in order to help them with water exercises and relaxation, says the press release.

“We ensure that each senior resident is well cared for with love and that they receive our full attention. We enjoy organising such traditional family occasions that give our residents a sense of home. They really appreciate it,” said Dr Sarah Cassar, General Manager of Casa Antonia Nursing and Residential Home.

After classic pop revivals sang by soprano Ruth Sammut Casingena, Casa Antonia’s resident hairdressers Maria Gatt and Maria Zammit gave the home’s “mothers” hairdos, while students from the International School of Beauty Therapy led by Sharon Warrington applied facial treatments.

Casa Antonia Nursing and Residential Home employs a staff of over 120. The home says it offers “holistic services and truly personalised care” for its residents.
