Supporting Wellbeing and Independence

Living Well at Carntyne

Our approach to wellbeing is centred on helping residents live well every day. We encourage residents to remain involved in the activities and interests they enjoy and maintain their social connections. At the same time, residents are supported to make choices about how they spend their time by a team that knows them personally.

Don't just take our word for it...

Lucy M (Daughter of Resident)
My mum spent the last years of her life at Carntyne and and received exceptional care. This included the very challenging period during COVID and the Carntyne staff became her family during lockdown.

My mum was registered blind and in her latter years also suffered from dementia, but the staff dealt with these complex needs admirably. The staff turnover is minimal which meant that the same carers looked after my mum throughout and got to know her very well. They were also quick to spot any deterioration or changes in her health and acted immediately.

Carntyne itself is a lovely house with well appointed rooms, a beautiful garden and is in a great location. We were able to take our mum out in Hexham in her wheelchair to the many tea shops and restaurants and into the park across the road which she thoroughly enjoyed. The Carntyne staff were also willing to take her to mass on a Sunday at the catholic church next door.

Jenny T (Daughter of Resident)
My father spent the last year of his life here, was very content and settled and received excellent care. This was no mean feat given the Covid pandemic! The staff were so kind and caring, and did everything they could to enable me to have conversations with Dad through the window, when I was unable to visit in person due to lockdown.

I would have no hesitation in recommending them to others and am very grateful for all they did for Dad, in challenging circumstances for everyone. Thank you so much.

Norma
I find all Carntyne staff kind, and friendly. They are my extended family and they help as much as they can but still maintain my independence and are excellent. The other residents are friendly and we get on really well.

I like the arts and crafts and help with seasonal decorating, love the singer coming in and helping with the fundraising alongside my daughters. The food is great and tastes good and we always have freshly prepared menus.

I love my little room which I call my penthouse, I have a lovely view of the park and it is very private. I would not want to be anywhere else.
