Dementia Care Home in the Heart of Poole
Welcome to Eagles Mount, a dementia and residential care home overlooking Poole’s picturesque harbour. Located only a few minutes away from Poole Hospital and local doctors’ surgeries, Eagles Mount is perfectly situated for those who would like the assurance of nearby medical facilities, while also benefiting from all the other amenities a central location has to offer.
Eagles Mount is the first care home in the UK to have achieved carbon neutral status, in line with ISO 14064 and GHG Emissions Protocol Accounting Standards. We did this by taking several measures to reduce our environmental impact and promote sustainability.
These include strategic changes to utility providers, introducing food waste collections (which are not yet available in Poole), signing up to tree planting schemes, and swapping to more eco-friendly products – to name but a few!

Exceptional Residential Care
At the heart of high-quality care is a deep understanding of each individual.
Before a new resident moves in, we conduct pre-assessments, review medical records, and hold detailed conversations with both the person moving in and their family members. This allows us to create a detailed care plan that takes into account everything from daily routines to medication schedules. Our team work closely with GPs, mental health organisations, and nurses to provide comprehensive care on all levels.
We provide a copy of each resident’s care plan summary to every staff member, and we update it if a person’s condition or needs change over time. Our top priority is the health and happiness of our residents, and we make sure to consistently monitor and evaluate our staff to make sure they’re providing the highest level of care possible.

Dementia-Focused Support
Living with dementia can be a very frightening and confusing time, as people may forget large chunks of their past, have trouble speaking, or not remember how to do everyday tasks. At Eagles Mount, we understand the challenges faced by those with dementia and have designed our care home to ease these difficulties.
Our home has a simple and easy-to-navigate layout, with bright colouring and clear signage to reduce confusion. We have also incorporated visual cues and sensory reminders throughout the home to help residents remember things more easily.
Our highly trained dementia care staff are dedicated to providing the right support for each individual and their family members. We work closely with residents, their families, and medical personnel to create personalised care plans that cater to each person’s unique needs and preferences.
We follow the Dr Gemma Jones behavioural staging model, which ensures that those living with dementia receive the appropriate level of care and support for each stage of their condition. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where people with dementia can live with dignity and respect.
