Dementia Care Home in the Heart of Poole, Dorset
Eagles Mount is a luxury residential home and specialist dementia 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 and would like to enjoy all the other amenities offered by a central location.
We are proud to be the first care home in the UK to have achieved carbon-neutral status. We attained this through a number of strategic changes to utility providers, introducing food waste collections (which are not yet available in Poole), signing up for tree planting schemes, and swapping to more eco-friendly products – to name but a few!
Our care focuses on assisting residents so that they can remain as independent as possible, even if they are living with advanced dementia. Through bespoke care plans, we ensure each resident is able to enjoy their life to the fullest.

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,
- Hold detailed conversations with both the person moving in and their family members
This allows us to create a detailed, bespoke care plan that takes into account everything from daily routines to medication schedules.
Every staff member has access to each care plan and can update it if a person’s condition or needs change over time.
Sometimes permanent, full time care is not yet needed. To help, we’re offering:
Day care – now just £19.95 per hour or £145 for a whole day
Respite care – book for 4 weeks, and only pay for 2!
Specialist Dementia Care Home
As a specialist dementia care home, we understand the various challenges faced by those with dementia and have designed our care home to ease these difficulties.
The home has an easy-to-navigate layout, with bright colouring and clear signage to reduce confusion. We have also incorporated visual cues and sensory reminders throughout to help residents remember things more easily.
Our highly trained dementia care staff follow the behavioural staging model, which ensures that those living with dementia receive personalised care at the appropriate level for each stage of their condition.
