About Us

Mountview is a residential care home in Stocksfield, Northumberland, supporting adults who have a learning disability and autistic adults. We also offer respite stays for people who need support for a shorter period, which can give a family carer a proper break while the person enjoys a change of scene.

The people who live here call it home, and our job is to help each of them live the life they choose within it, with as much independence as they want and as much support as they need. We help with personal care where it is wanted, with cooking, laundry and shopping, with medication and appointments, and with managing money and correspondence. We also support people to get out locally, to keep up the activities they enjoy and to stay close to family and friends.

Communication and routine sit at the centre of the work. Learning how a person asks for help, how they show that they are unhappy and what settles them when a day goes badly matters more than any written policy, so we take time over it and write plans in a form the person can actually use. Changes are explained in advance wherever we can manage it.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. We keep asking the people who live here whether this genuinely feels like their own home.
