A lifestyle rooted in wellness.
You’ve heard the proverb, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. At Newcastle Place, we believe a more fulfilling and happier life is built on a healthier lifestyle. Our wellness services philosophy focuses on the 8 dimensions of wellness — physical, emotional, spiritual, vocational, environmental, social, intellectual and health services — to promote whole-body wellness.

Opportunities to make a difference.
It’s important to the residents of Newcastle Place that we stay connected to the larger community. That’s why we offer a wide variety of resident-led community groups and organizations. We also play a vital role in providing the healing power of music to area veterans. As a local chapter of Guitars For Vets — a nonprofit organization that helps veterans cope with PTSD by teaching them guitar — we’re making a huge difference in the lives of people beyond our campus.
Staying fit.
If you have personal fitness goals, we offer a variety of classes and a heated indoor therapy pool to help you meet them. We also have a fully furnished fitness center attached to our pool that features treadmills, ellipticals, a NuStep recumbent cross trainer, free weights, and rigid motion machines – leg press, lat pulldown, row machine.
Patrick Gilbertson, our fitness manager, is an American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) certified personal trainer. He’ll create a wellness plan that will perfectly fit your fitness level and abilities and work with you one-on-one twice a week, at no extra charge.
“We work with Newcastle Place residents to help them enjoy their lives. We get down to business, but we have fun along the way.”
