The Sidmouth Nursing Home

Home is an organised and very well-run home, and I would have no hesitation in recommending it to anyone. The staff are lovely, and the environment is clean. My mother has been there for over 2 months now and they all look after her and me. The manager is great and very supportive and I thank them all.

with their very cheerful manner and patience, the musical activities etc are really good! All her needs are well provided for there! Thank you very much.

is nothing they wouldn't do or provide for those in their care.
The high standard of facilities, food, hygiene and cleanliness is very evident at every turn.
The place is essentially like being within a family unit, with each client recognised as an individual and cared for with great understanding and compassion. This is well reflected in the happiness and security in residents' demeanour.
No matter how difficult a situation occurs, it was always handled competently and with great empathy.
I cannot praise the whole team highly enough.
Thank you all.

how well she understood our concerns about getting the right kind of palliative nursing for our very independent mother, who had always been opposed to the idea of 'going into care'. Our visit was followed up with a call from the manager, who instead of going through a preconceived 'tick list' of questions, appeared to be genuinely committed to discovering my mother's personality, her preferences and what was really important to her.

Mum was welcomed to her new home by the Matron who'd given up her own day off! All fears about 'losing her autonomy' were allayed with kindness and sensitivity. Compassion, respect and love were what my mother needed and they were delivered unstintingly by the staff, until the end.
