We aim to make life at Briardene as enriching as possible. Our team of qualified nursing staff and carers are trained to the highest standards where we aim to provide a warm and inviting environment in which to relax and enjoy a healthy and enriching lifestyle. We are located to the west of Newcastle upon Tyne, with 60 large and airy, stylishly decorated and refurbished bedrooms which we encourage residents to personalise to make their own.

We recognise that mealtimes are a focal part of anyones day. Nutritional well-being is vital to maintaining a healthy mind and body. Our regularly reviewed menus with resident input, provide a well-balanced nutritious choice of food which also caters for people who require special diets. There is also an alternative menu available just in case people would like a change. Drinks, snacks and nibbles including fruit are available through the day and the night. We welcome residents who like to bake, cook or help themselves whenever they would like. We can also cater for parties and celebrations for residents, and their families and friends.
Testimonials
Kim Chambers
We are delighted to introduce Kim Chambers as Home Manager at Briardene. Kim has been an integral part of the Mariposa Care team for a number of years, most recently in her role as Regional Manager - which she has chosen to step away from in order to commit herself full time to Briardene. Kim is an exceptional manager and we are confident the home will excel under her leadership.
