We’re passionate about providing the best quality general nursing, residential and dementia care for older people.
As an established provider of care services, we are a highly professional organisation whose ethos revolves around quality, as well as having the wellbeing and care of residents as our highest priority.

Kenton Hall is a 60 bedded residential and nursing service, approximately four miles from Newcastle city centre.
Set in landscaped gardens on the outskirts of Gosforth, with excellent road and public transport links we provide dignified, professional person centred care for our long term, respite and interim residents.
Our qualified nursing team, supported by a strong care team provide support for varying needs, from those needing just that bit more care than can be provided at home, through complex nursing care, up to and including palliative care.
As well as welcoming private residents we work closely with Newcastle City council and the NHS, accepting Local authority funded residents with no additional top up on fees, and CHC nursing clients.
We pride ourselves in our diverse community, catering for many cultures as well as all faiths and none.
