Residents at Cramlington House had a lovely trip to Azure Garden Centre last week!
As well as enjoying a lovely cuppa and some cake, the residents absolutely loved looking around Azure’s renowned Christmas shop with its glistening and glittery Christmas decorations, trees and lights. They responded really well to the festive delights, especially with all of the colours and effects.
The highlight of the morning, of course, was meeting Azure’s reindeers, which brought a huge smile to faces and created a lot of interaction with all the excitement of being able to see and stroke Rudolph and his friends!
Socialising in the local community is so important to our residents, and our weekly activities programme are developed with this priority in mind. To truly provide first class care, there needs to be a big focus on activities away from the home, as it really does provide amazing benefits to those in residential and dementia care, which is why our out of care home activities are a key element of our care plans for residents.
