About St Marys
St Marys provides residential and dementia care for older people, with respite care and short breaks also available. The home is registered as a care home without nursing and offers support for people living with dementia.
Daily life includes organised activities, events and opportunities to socialise, alongside meals prepared around residents’ preferences. Families can arrange an in-person show round with the home manager or request a virtual visit. A pre-assessment follows when a resident is considering moving in, helping the team understand care needs and existing plans.
