Report published 11 July 2023 · Last inspected 5 May 2023

Inspectors describe YourLife (Ponteland) as an assisted living scheme for older people where personal care is provided to a small group of residents, with the service rated good overall. Staff are described as kind and attentive, residents said they felt very safe, and the registered manager was seen as approachable and supportive, with staff trained and well supported.
