About Us
Uncle Eddie’s Home has served the senior citizens of Georgetown and beyond since 1975. Located on a 3.1-acre site at Tucville, Georgetown. We’re a long-established, trusted residence for reasonably able-bodied seniors who prefer community living, companionship and supportive care in a welcoming environment.
Recently we completed major upgrades to the facility (plumbing, kitchens, accommodation wings) thanks to the support of the Rotary Club of Georgetown Central and other donors. We are focused on dignity, comfort, security, and meaningful daily life — especially for families abroad looking to place loved ones in a reliable Guyana-based residence.
