About Us

Tweedmouth House is a nursing home in Berwick upon Tweed. We provide nursing care for older people, we support people living with dementia, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places.

People usually come to us at a point of change, often after a hospital stay or when managing at home has stopped being realistic. That is an unsettling time, and much of our work in the first weeks is about helping somebody feel steady again: sleeping properly, eating again, having their own belongings around them and getting their medication right.

Nurses are on duty at every hour, so medication, skin care, nutrition, pain and mobility are managed here, and a change in somebody's condition is picked up by people who know how they normally are. Families often say the greatest relief is no longer being the ones who have to notice everything.

Being a long way from the larger towns, we work closely with local GPs and community teams, and we keep relatives informed rather than waiting to be asked.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.

If you are considering nursing care in this part of Northumberland, please come and visit and ask us whatever you need to know.
