In this guide, we’ll explore the benefits of nursing care and how our unique approach at The Fleet provides a truly exceptional experience.

Why Choose Nursing Care in Devon?

Devon boasts a rich network of healthcare professionals with a wealth of experience in elderly care. At The Fleet, our nurses are not only highly qualified but also deeply embedded in the Dartmouth community. 

This strong local connection ensures seamless collaboration with nearby hospitals like Torbay Hospital and local GP practices, facilitating swift access to specialists, prompt response times for emergencies, and a comprehensive understanding of the unique health challenges faced by residents in the Southwest.

Devon’s Naturally Calming and Restorative Effect

Our care home, nestled in the picturesque town of Dartmouth, overlooks the stunning River Dart and the rolling hills of the South Hams. Residents can enjoy tranquil strolls along the riverbank, breathe in the fresh sea air on boat trips from the harbour, and savour the sight of sailboats gliding across the water.

The Fleet builds connections with local organisations and community groups. Residents can participate in tailored outings to nearby attractions like Dartmouth Castle or Greenway House, enjoy visits from local choirs and theatre groups, and even attend events like the Dartmouth Food Festival or the Royal Regatta.

These connections help combat isolation, create a sense of belonging, and ensure residents remain engaged with the vibrant life of Dartmouth and the surrounding area.
