Spring is finally here and we have some exciting news for this season. Springfield Health Services is proud to unveil our new branding, including new logos for our care homes Springfield and Prinsted, as well as a fresh, contemporary website.

Our rebrand represents a renewed energy and commitment to providing the highest quality residential care for our residents. While our branding has evolved, our dedication to compassionate, personalised nursing care remains the same. We’re still the same team you trust, with a bold new vision for the future. Stay tuned as we continue to build on the values that make Springfield care homes a place where residents feel valued, supported, and truly at home.

The Benefits of Nature

At Springfield care homes, we understand the positive impact nature has on our residents’ physical and mental wellbeing. With Spring upon us, and the temperature rising, it’s the perfect time to embrace the outdoors and enjoy our beautiful surroundings. Our landscaped gardens and outdoor spaces cater to all mobility levels, providing a peaceful environment where residents benefit from nature’s therapeutic effects. With our comfortable seating areas, you can sit and enjoy time outside with a tasty refreshment. Plus, we’re delighted to share that we have recently hatched baby ducklings, bringing even more joy and a touch of nature’s wonder to our homes.

Accessible Outdoor Spaces for All

Our beautifully landscaped gardens are a key feature of life at both our homes, offering a welcoming space for residents of all mobility levels. With accessible paths and seating areas, residents can relax, take a gentle stroll, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings. As spring approaches, our skilled gardeners are preparing the beds, and soon, vibrant flowers will begin to bloom. We’ve ensured that everyone, regardless of mobility, can benefit from the fresh air and tranquil outdoor spaces. Whether it’s supportive living or dementia care, we provide a setting for all to enjoy the changing seasons.

Health and Wellbeing Benefits of Being Outdoors

Spending time outdoors offers numerous health benefits, particularly for our older people. Natural sunlight helps produce vitamin D, supporting bone health and the immune system. Fresh air and outdoor activities can also improve mood, reduce stress, and enhance well-being. For our residents, time in nature offers a valuable opportunity to reduce isolation, encourage social interaction, and boost mental health—vital aspects of residential care, nursing care, and dementia care.

Day Trips to Local Attractions

At Springfield and Prinsted, we love getting out and about. We regularly organise trips to local beauty spots, scenic walks, and charming country pubs, helping our residents stay connected with the local community. We also take part in local events whenever we can, bringing plenty of fun and joy. These outings allow residents to explore new places, socialise, and make lasting memories, all while enjoying the fresh air.

At Springfield Care Homes, we’re committed to enhancing the lives of our residents by helping them make the most of every season. As we welcome spring, we invite everyone to enjoy our outdoor spaces, participate in our outings, and celebrate the season with us. Whether it’s through residential care, nursing care, supportive living, or dementia care, we continue to ensure that our residents live with dignity and joy.
