I am the husband of a resident.
Overall, I am very happy with the care my wife receives at Derwent Residential Care Home. I am myself made to feel welcome at all times as I am there most days visiting my wife. The staff and carers treat my wife with dignity and respect at all times and this makes me feel comfortable when I leave at the end of the day. I hope this care and level of professionalism continues for the future care of my wife.

The Derwent Care Home needs a lift.
Those residents who reside in the rooms upstairs and have mobility problems would find it very difficult to descend the stairs. My mother is bed bound and could only get around using a wheelchair; noway could she join in with activities downstairs. There is a stair lift but would still be a problem for both residents and staff alike.

Overall Experience
Mum moved into the Derwent for temporary respite care and enjoyed her stay so much, decided to stay on a permanent basis. The staff are friendly and efficient, creating a happy safe and caring environment for the residents.
