On Friday 20th June I came with the Forget Me Not Dementia Cafe for afternoon tea. The afternoon started off with a lady singer, she sang some really nice songs. Then we went into the restaurant for a really nice afternoon tea. The carers at the home had black and white outits on, as for the afternoon they acted as waitresses. The sandwiches and cakes were delicious. Everyone at Delamer House was very welcoming. The whole afternoon was lovely. It was a real pleasure to come to the home. My friend since he has been a resident of Delamer House. He is so much better healthwise and everything for him is a great improvement. Everyone looks after him really well. Thank you, Delamer House.

The wonderful manager suggested we bring a Dementia Cafe local group ( forget me not cafe) to join residents and staff for a special Victorian afternoon tea. We brought about 15 member and enjoyed a wonderful afternoon of music, memories and an afternoon tea. Staff members dressed up as waitresses and served sandwiches, cakes and tea in the dining room. Our group were treated like VIP's and individuals with individual needs. The venue is clean, well maintained and accessible. The manager and her team were just wonderful. It showed how Delamer House caters for all with love, care and dignity.

I didn't know what to expect from The Delamer, and frankly I wasn't looking forward to it. I found warmth, a competent, caring and ever-present staff for whom nothing was too much trouble. Good and plenteous food, and a happy atmosphere. Would I go back? Yes!!

Very efficient from 1st phone call to brother moving in. Staff all very friendly and pleasant, and take time to say hello, they work hard, a welcoming environment, other residents all seem very happy. Food of a high standard. Very efficient in ensuring professional services are involved in the care and treatment to benefit my brother. Only been a resident for 1 week and happy so far with what we have experienced.

I have a very dear friend who is a resident her care could not be any better. The staff are amazing they greet me like one of the family. Without the care and attention received by my friend she would not longer be with us.

Home has always treated my mother with care and dignity. I am very happy with the care home.

My mum was moved here from another care home (since closed) and I noticed the difference between the two immediately. Friendlier, more experienced and caring staff. Mum actually rallied will in here. The staff were very caring and informed me of every thing going on at no time was she left in her bed without being checked on often (she broke her hip at previous care home and never walked again). She seemed happy and well looked after at all times, enjoyed the food and cups of tea. I cannot fault this home in any way.

Always found the staff and management very efficient and friendly, and mum seems happy and settled when I visit. The manager is always approachable and is keen that even the smallest detail is correct.

The care team have gone above and beyond in making my dad comfortable and welcome. His room is a good size and bright with a full-depth window. All the meals are prepared on-site, and Dad generally eats the lot, including the dessert (his favourite!). Activities he enjoys too, including bingo etc. I would recommend anyone to Delamer

As my husband is a resident at the home. I have been visiting twice weekly. The staff are always pleasant. Helpful, nothing seems to be much trouble. When my husband was taken ill they went absolutely above and beyond their normal duties. They were so professional, calm and kept me informed.

My mother went to live at Delamer on 14th February 2025. The staff are very friendly and helpful. They will assist my mum and our family when it is needed with no hesitation. I cannot thank the staff and the manager for their understanding and patience during the settling in time with my mum. It has been and still can be very upsetting for my mum and the family.

My mother, came to Delamer, at the start of 2020, as Covid-19 was just starting, though she never caught it she had dementia and UTI. She was deteriorating. After inital problems she improved, began to socialise, and did well. Dementia progressed and she is difficult! The staff have been very good, the food and medical services, care and everything good. Now at 96 she is very frail, but with an awkward iron will. When UTI is controlled she is more content, but when it recurs she is very difficult but is handled well by the efforts. She speaks well of staff, food etc but in another breath is paranoid about missing items no one likes her etc.

After living at Delamer House for 3 years, I can only say that I am very happy. The staff are all very friendly. The carers are all excellent, they do all they can to look after us cheerfully.

My mother came to Delamer from hospital early January . She was incredibly frail and was very low in mood . As my father had been a resident at Delamer until his passing in September 23 , it was the natural and only choice of where mum would go. On arrival all the staff made a huge fuss of her and welcomed her . Her room had been got ready including putting up some pictures on the wall of her late husband . It really was like home from Home for her . 3 months in she is a different person , she is so happy there. She loves all the activities and has come alive . I can't put into words the gratititude we have to them.

My mum spent four months at Delamer House before passing away, and while this time was undoubtedly difficult for our family, the care she received was exceptional. The staff were consistently kind, compassionate, and professional. They went out of their way to ensure mum was comfortable, supported, and treated with dignity in her final months. Despite her declining health in her final days, she was still given well-cooked, nourishing meals, which helped her put on some weight, even though she struggled to eat. The home itself was clean, well-maintained, and welcoming, offering a calm and peaceful environment. Though the circumstances of her stay were heartbreaking, we truly appreciated the attentive care and warmth that the team provided. It gave us peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Thank you to everyone at Delamer House for all you did during this challenging time.

I was given the freedom to "do my own thing ". The level of care, compassion and companionship was amazing. The level of support I witnessed being offered to others was carried out in a compassionate, professional and respectful manner. The food was plentiful, varied and delicious.

I spent two pleasant weeks plus two days at Delamer House whilst my family were on holiday. The room on the first floor was freshly decorated, new furniture with a lockable drawer installed, and the requested electric bed. In addition a footstall and a deep cushion for the winged arm chair. The staff are friendly and helped me all the time. I enjoyed being accompanied on walks to the nearby cliff top, where one would sit and enjoy sea views. The delicious meals were well cooked, including fresh vegetables. Menus were varied with home cooked desserts and cakes at supper time. Although, toilet flush needed constant maintenance, seat low and required raised addition, and water topped in basin, so glad of assisted bath and showers.
