Alexandra House provides residential care for elderly people with physical frailty and mental infirmity, as well as those in short or long term convalescence.
Alexandra House is a purpose built two-storey care centre situated in Gateshead on a main bus route, with easy access to Newcastle, Gateshead and the Metro Centre.The nearest railway station is Newcastle Station. Regular bus services stop near to the care centre.


Southern Cross Healthcare provides care homes and nursing homes for the elderly with a friendly and welcoming environment.

Our focus is our service users and their families. Our aim is to run each of our residential and nursing homes as a family unit - to create a “homely” feeling that our service users can feel safe and comfortable in.

Our holistic approach to care emphasises the importance of social interaction and activities. Our people are very experienced at listening, understanding and responding to the needs of service users.

Our people are central to the service we provide in our residential and nursing homes. We know the best care comes from a motivated and knowledgeable team. We are totally committed to giving our people the training and opportunities they need to help them deliver the standards of care and nursing we demand.

We set ourselves high standards in every aspect of the care we give service users in our nursing homes. We never forget our service users are individuals and we treat them with respect and dignity at all times.

What ever the type of care you or your loved one requires, you can rest assured, we will do our best for you.
