Note: Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate residents at Kendal House who require the full time use of a wheelchair.

Our Birch Hill, Carntyne and Melbury House care homes are all fully accessible for wheelchair users.

Support with Mobility

Kendal House can support residents who have some mobility difficulties and may need assistance moving safely around the home.

However, because of the layout of the building, Kendal House is not suitable for residents who depend on a wheelchair for mobility.

Real Experiences From Kendal House

Jane
I love it here; everyone is so friendly, and the staff are marvellous.  I love my bubble baths!
Joyce
It is a very nice place here with pleasant people who are all well behaved and lots of fun... (laughing)   Thank you for asking!
Margaret
I have been at Kendal House for over a year now and have got to know most of the residents. Most people are friendly and the staff are helpful and ready to assist when necessary.   Living here is handy for shopping in Whitley Bay when we can go out. It is also handy for people to visit.
Joan
When I first found out I was moving into Kendal House I was very apprehensive because I thought I was going to be staying with my husband.   A few months have passed now and I feel I am settling in very well, the staff are very friendly and helpful and make me feel at ease.

I have made a few good friends and find I can join in with conversations and activities as I would at home.   I am very content.
