This care home does better than I dreamed possible.
All the residents here are so happy.
I didn't know a service for people with dementia can be this good. Family care is often thought to be the best for our parents in my culture. But this care home does better than I dreamed possible. They are looking after my mother very well. They also accommodate for special dietary requirements and all the residents here are so happy as now they have lots of new friends to chat with. It's a bit like a 5-star all inclusive hotel, but with medical teams ready for any incidents.

Living with us and our approach
At Sherrell House, we support people to maintain their existing interests, routines, and hobbies - as well as developing new ones too! This helps create a real sense of belonging and promotes movement, sociability and cognitive ability.
We offer various holistic therapies to improve peace of mind and wellbeing. These are particularly beneficial for people who are living with dementia. For example, our sensory room is a relaxing and calm haven which helps to stimulate the senses. We also arrange regular visits from animals, who always bring joy, comfort and companionship!
