At Prince’s Court Care Home the staff pride themselves on giving visitors a warm and welcoming greeting when they arrive, whoever they are. That’s what you’d expect, because Prince’s Court is in North Shields, close to Newcastle and in the North East people are known for their friendliness and hospitality.
Staff at the home are very professional, committed and caring, and work hard to forge close relationships with residents, getting to know as much as possible the residents’ individual needs, their likes and dislikes – to really know and understand them. They do the same with their families and friends, who they encourage to visit and get involved in activities, as much as possible.
Regular resident meetings are held, where they discuss what’s happening in the home and every effort is made to get them to be part of the decision-making process and to be involved in the running of the home.
One of Prince's Court’s priorities is to enrich the residents’ lives, physically and mentally and so give them the best quality of life that they are able to enjoy, depending on their abilities. This can be as simple as having a chat, doing person

Thank you for your lovely review. Your kind words will mean the world to our team and home.
Although my mother was more or less at the end of her time, the experience of Prince's Court was nothing short of outstanding from day one. Excellent staff and management who really do care. Really nice facilities throughout the building. Nice touches like hairdressing on site and tea/coffee...

A nurse changed my dressings on both feet. They were the best ever! She took great care, no pain etc. Healing was great.

Excellent care and attention from all the staff. Very sociable and hard working. All in all, a great intermediate step from the hospital and then home. A great, very dedicated and knowledgeable team.

I found communication with staff and residents' relatives slightly difficult because of the constant change in staff. Staff were thin on the ground, especially at weekends.

I arranged a room and care for a friend who has no family and for whom I had a POA. The staff were always responsive and helpful. He was doubly incontinent throughout the three and a half years he lived there. I never smelled any urine or found him dirty. Hair, nails, teeth and clothes were always tidy and clean. No mean feat! I am profoundly grateful for the care he received.
Thank you for your lovely review; your praise is much appreciated and will be passed to the team.
My husband received 100 per cent care. Also, my own care during these difficult times. Special thanks to all carers, especially the cook, looking after his clothes.

My dad who at the time was 70 came into the care home in October 2020 after having an accident in April. He is unable to walk, talk, or eat (he is peg feed) We got told by the hospital that there was nothing more they could do for him and that he would never improve. Well after the dedication of...
Thank you Prince's Court I don't think any of this would have been possible without you.
Thank you for this incredible review - this will certainly be passed on to our Princes Court care team who I know will be deeply touched by your lovely words.
My mother was transferred to Prince's Court from hospital and was cared for as an end of life resident. The nursing and care staff were clearly very caring, professional and helpful. My mother died after three days and the staff were very caring and respectful after her death.

My mother was in Princes Court in North Sheilds during 2021 and 2022. The care and support she has from the staff was outstanding. the personal touches and kindness they showed to my mother made this difficult time more manageable. In Covid times, there were days and weeks when we could not visit more, and it was always a consolation to know that she was being booked by such warm-hearted, professional and caring staff. They has such a human touch. Thank you.
Thank you for such a lovely review and glowing comments about our team, your feedback will be passed on to the Princes Court team.
My mother is looked after very well by the staff, very friendly and my mother is happy there. The home is very clean and well organised. The atmosphere is really good. I know I'm leaving my mother in good hands.

During my husband's stay in intermediate care, he was very well looked after with respect and good attention. Management and all staff were excellent.

My aunt settled well in Princes Court and found the staff friendly and caring from the outset (February 2020). As her condition worsened, we were very pleased with the level of care and attention she received. All of the care and nursing staff are to be greatly thanked. The only downside to Princes Court is the seemingly inadequate telephone contact system. It was frequently poor and contact with relevant staff difficult.
Thank you for your positive and kind words about our Princes Court team. Feedback is very important to us and we have been working hard to improve all communications including the telephone system. Thank you once again for your lovely review.
All staff have my best interest when helping me. Thanks.
