About Ashwood Court
Ashwood Court provides residential, nursing, dementia and respite care for older people, younger adults and people with mental health or physical support needs. Its purpose-built home accommodates residents in comfortable en-suite rooms and separates care into wings for male-only EMI, mixed EMI and younger adults with mental health conditions.
Specialist support includes dementia care from trained staff, nursing care for people needing medical monitoring without hospitalisation, and temporary stays after an operation or when family carers are away. A dedicated activity coordinator organises sensory exercises, films, music events, seasonal arts and crafts and family activities. Gardens have wheelchair access, and families can join activities or meals. Respite care is available after an operation or during a carer’s absence.

How much does Ashwood Court cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Ashwood Court for its weekly fee. As a guide, Sunderland council paid on average £1,028 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.
