About Red Brick House

Red Brick House is a nursing home in Prudhoe, Northumberland. We support people whose needs call for qualified nursing alongside daily care, and our nursing team is available throughout the day and night so that clinical needs are met without anyone leaving a place they have settled into. We care for older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia, people with a physical disability and people managing a mental health condition. Nursing is at the centre of the work, but it is not the whole picture. Comfort, dignity, decent food, company on the terms someone wants it and help to keep hold of familiar routines all count for a great deal. For people living with dementia we pay close attention to life history and to the small triggers that settle or unsettle someone. That knowledge belongs to the whole team, not just to a file. We also provide respite care, whether that is planned so a family carer can rest or arranged after a hospital stay while someone builds their strength back up. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Families are welcome here, and we would always rather have an honest conversation early than let a worry grow. Please get in touch if you would like to look around.
