Mathilde Wagner is Manager at Eagles Mount Care Home.
Welcome to Eagles Mount, a luxury 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!
