Why families choose Walfinch Newcastle

Every care arrangement is different, but the things families tell us matter most tend to be the same. These are the principles we build our care around.

  • CQC rated Good

    Walfinch Newcastle East is rated Good overall by the Care Quality Commission, with Good ratings in all five inspected areas.

  • A small, familiar team

    Wherever possible, you are supported by a small and consistent team of carefully matched carers, so you see familiar faces.

  • Care built around you

    Your care plan reflects your routines, preferences and goals, and is reviewed as your needs change.

  • Locally based and managed

    Our office at Royal Quays in North Shields keeps our team close to the communities we support across the North East.

  • More than tasks

    Through our Time to Thrive approach, support can include hobbies, appointments, outings and staying connected to your community.

  • Easy to talk to

    You can call the office, ask us to call you back, or speak with the team during a visit. We would always rather hear from you early.

Quality you can check

We are registered with and inspected by the Care Quality Commission. You can read about our rating, what the inspection found and how we keep quality under review on our Quality and CQC page.
