About Amelia House Residential Home

Amelia House Residential Home is in Exeter, providing residential care for older people and younger adults who need support close at hand. We aim to run as a household rather than an institution, and the day belongs to the people living it. We support residents living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions, and people living with a physical disability. In each case the approach begins with knowing the person properly: their history, their habits, what settles them and what does not. Routines are kept familiar, changes explained in advance, and distress treated as something with a cause rather than as behaviour to be managed. Our team helps with personal care, medication, mobility and meals, and equally with the things that make a day worth having: conversation, company for those who want it, quiet for those who do not, and fresh air whenever the weather allows. Rooms are personalised and relatives are welcome whenever they can come. Respite stays are available for people needing care for a short period. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good. If you are looking at care homes in Exeter, please come and see us at an ordinary time of day and ask whatever you like.
