We offer a person-centred approach that is delivered through quality care, recreation and activities, and food and dining.
At Northlea Court in 2023 we supported over 350 families with their care enquiry. A recent visitor said: “I am very impressed, it feels clean, airy and the staff are friendly and caring. Everyone took the time to introduce themselves to my aunt and ourselves. I can see my aunt being happy and taken really good care of with all her needs being met.”
We are here to help, so please get in touch with our friendly team.
At our care home in Cramlington, we provide a comprehensive range of services, including residential care, nursing care, and specialised nursing dementia care, alongside dedicated residential dementia support, respite care, palliative care and intermediate care.
Here at Four Seasons Health Care Group, we run regular baking sessions as part of our Magic Moments activities programme. It can be a relaxing time and a great way for our residents to practice their culinary skills and benefit from the great social occasion. The delightful smells and satisfaction of baking a sweet treat is hugely rewarding and helps create a happy and comforting experience.
Baking is not only a delicious and enjoyable activity, but it can also have positive effects on your mental health. Here’s why:
Stress Relief: Baking provides a therapeutic outlet for stress. The process of measuring ingredients, following a recipe, and creating something beautiful can help distract your mind from worries and promote relaxation.
Mindfulness: Baking encourages you to be present in the moment. It requires focus and attention to detail, allowing you to practice mindfulness and engage fully in the task at hand. This can help reduce anxiety and promote a sense of calm.
Creativity Boost: Baking allows you to express your creativity through flavours, decorations, and presentation. The act of experimenting with different ingredients and techniques can stimulate your imagination and boost your mood.
Sense of Accomplishment: Successfully baking something from scratch gives you a sense of achievement. Seeing the finished product, whether it’s a perfectly risen cake or a batch of golden brown cookies, can boost your self-esteem and provide a sense of pride.
Social Connection: Baking can be a shared activity that brings people together. Whether it’s baking with family members or sharing your creations with friends and neighbours, it fosters social connections and creates opportunities for bonding.
