About Armstrong House
Nurse-led support for adults with complex needs is available at Armstrong House, including people living with dementia, mental health needs, physical disabilities and other conditions requiring ongoing care. The home provides residential and nursing care for older people.
Daily life includes activities, shared dining and support from a care team that can serve meals in the dining room or at a resident’s chair when needed. Families can also consider dementia, respite and end-of-life care within the home’s stated service range. Residential and nursing care for older people makes the setting relevant when needs extend beyond ordinary residential support.

How much does Armstrong House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Armstrong House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Gateshead council paid on average £1,060 a week for a nursing care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £1,102 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
