About Eothen Residential Homes - Gosforth
Older people can receive residential and dementia care from Eothen Residential Homes within a charitable organisation guided by Christian values. Care is centred on physical and emotional needs, with relaxed routines and staff encouraged to spend time getting to know residents’ histories, preferences and priorities.
At the Gosforth service, dementia support is delivered through a small-household approach, while the organisation’s residential care is based on person-centred support. Eothen accepts self-funded and local-authority-funded residents, although local-authority placements require a top-up based on individual circumstances and discussed before admission. Its charitable structure means any surplus is invested in maintaining and developing the homes. Local-authority placements require a discussed top-up before admission.
