Devonshire Dementia Care Home and Day Centre

My Mum had asked to stay in her own home and it was difficult for the family when this was no longer possible. It took a while for us to decide that Mum would benefit from specialist dementia care. I researched online and found the Devonshire. The initial visit convinced us that the Devonshire was going to be able to provide the kind of care Mum needed. Mum lived in the home for seven months until her death in December. During that time the family spent many hours at the home and were continually impressed by the standard of care and the ethos of the home. Everyone working at the Devonshire has training about dementia and this provides a safe and stimulating environment for the residents. Mum settled in quickly and was able to go out most weekdays on 'fresh air drives' to places she had loved all her life. The staff are endlessly kind and there is humour and fun that I would not have expected. I have no reservations about recommending this home.
