A Warm Welcome, Even for a Short Time
Most residents at Devonshire make their home here permanently, enjoying the full rhythm of community life. But not every stay needs to be long term.

With 24/7 staff, balanced meals, and daily activities, it’s an easy place to rest, recover, and feel at home.

“
Throughout my stay it came to my realization just how much support I needed. I felt very supported by the management and the wonderful staff. This made my decision so much easier to become a permanent resident.
What surprised me the most being here and getting involved in the activities, I realised I still have my independence and control of my own well being. The activities allowed me to become more social and meet new people.
Living here at Devonshire has made me feel safe again. My health is not the best but knowing I have so much support here is incredible and reassuring. I feel so comfortable and well taken care of here.

My transition was very easy as I lived in another retirement home and Devonshire was surely a better fit for me. The people were very nice to me and I gained a very Best friend Stella right from the beginning.”
Whenever I need something there is always someone who will help you at any time. They help make sure my health is good and I have fun things to do.
I would recommend Devonshire because I can count on them for my care needs and emotional support. There are so many contagious laughs.
