About our home

Tucked away on a quiet street in Kenton, a few miles from the buzz of Newcastle city centre, Kirkwood Court is a purpose-built care home where days are full, doors are open and the kettle is never far from the boil. We offer residential and residential dementia care for older people, along with respite stays, day care and support for anyone finding their feet again after time in hospital.

Every bedroom is a single room with its own en-suite, and each one is free to fill with the photos, furniture and keepsakes that make it home. Beyond the bedroom, there’s always somewhere to be. You’ll find lounges for a natter, a quiet corner with a good book, a family room for birthdays and catch-ups, a hair salon for a weekly pamper, and gardens to enjoy when the sun comes out.

Life here is built around the people who live here. Our team takes time to learn what makes each person tick: how they like their tea, the music that gets their feet tapping, the stories they love to tell. Their care is shaped around all of it, with plenty of input from family along the way.

Families are part of everyday life at Kirkwood Court, not just visitors. Pop in for lunch, join in a bingo afternoon or come along on a trip out. There’s always something going on, and always a seat for you.
