Kirkwood Court is a lovely, purpose-built care home with 72 beds located in a peaceful residential area of Kenton, near Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The home offers residential and residential memory care, for those living with dementia.

This friendly home offers the choice of several tastefully decorated sitting rooms and dining areas. The large garden, which is looked after by some of our Residents, is a popular spot to sit and relax with friends and family. Some rooms have direct access onto the garden. All our stylish, bright and comfortable bedrooms and living areas are easily accessible by wheelchair.

The home’s caring team has created a family atmosphere, encouraging everyone to eat and celebrate special occasions together. Residents are invited to decorate their rooms with small items of their own furniture and treasured belongings so that it feels just like home. Daily life at Kirkwood Court is thoughtfully designed to support mind, body and soul.

Kirkwood Court’s Home Manager will make sure that every single Resident receives the kindest possible care. Our extensively trained team deliver all the specialist care and support services that your loved one could possibly require. Personalised care plans consider not only medical, personal care and dietary needs, but also the individual’s likes and dislikes, religious preferences and suggestions from family members that might make their stay with us that little bit more enjoyable.
