About Us
Classic Care Homes (Devon) Limited (often trading as Classic Carers) is a high-quality provider of residential care, domiciliary care, and live-in care based in South Devon. The organisation specialises in supporting older adults, particularly those living with dementia, Alzheimer’s, and complex physical health conditions, within both dedicated care homes and their own private residences.
Who We Are
Classic Care Homes (Devon) Limited operates as a personalised care provider and management group for small, family-oriented residential facilities. They function as a strategic partner for families in the Exeter and Teignbridge areas, offering a transition from visiting home care to 24-hour residential support as needs evolve.
The organisation is led by a dedicated management team that emphasises a person-centred philosophy, ensuring that every resident or client has a voice in their care delivery. They focus on maintaining a "family feel" across their services, particularly within their smaller homes where high staff-to-resident ratios allow for deeper emotional and social engagement.
Their approach is built on stability and consistency; the provider has moved away from using agency staff to ensure that residents are supported by a core team of vetted and familiar carers who understand their unique histories and preferences.
What We Do
Residential Care
Operating specialist facilities like Pottles Court (Exminster) and Summercourt (Teignmouth), providing 24/7 support for older people in a safe, therapeutic environment.
Domiciliary Care (Dom Care)
Delivering visiting care and personal care services to individuals in their own homes, ranging from simple companionship to complex medical support.
Live-in Care & 24 Hour Support
Providing intensive one-to-one care where a professional carer resides with the client to manage complex care needs, stroke recovery, or end-of-life care.
Dementia & Specialist Care
Offering expert support for residents with Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and Dementia, utilising sensory engagement and creative activities to promote mental wellbeing.
Respite & Short Term Stays
Providing temporary placements to aid recovery post hospitalisation or to offer a "well-deserved break" for family caregivers.
Approach & Values
Classic Care Homes (Devon) Limited focuses on dignity, respect, and holistic wellbeing. Their approach is designed to nurture the mind and spirit as much as the body, featuring beautifully maintained gardens and bespoke social calendars that include arts, crafts, and community outings. They value transparency, keeping families actively involved in care planning through regular updates and open communication.
