The Depperhaugh Nursing Home

We are incredibly proud of Kesha and everything she has achieved.
When Kesha first came to the UK, she joined us at Depperhaugh as a support worker, bringing with her valuable experience as a qualified nurse from Sri Lanka. From the very beginning, she had a clear goal — to become a Registered Nurse in the UK. Through determination, resilience, and unwavering commitment, she worked tirelessly to complete all of the required English exams and professional requirements needed to fulfil her dream.
Balancing full-time work while being a devoted wife and mum is no small task, yet Kesha managed it all with grace and dedication. Her hard work, perseverance, and passion for nursing have truly paid off.
We are absolutely delighted to welcome Kesha as one of our Registered Nurses at Depperhaugh. You truly deserve everything you have achieved and all the happiness that comes with it.
Well done, Kesha — we are so very proud of you.

Residents and staff thoroughly enjoyed taking part in our Valentine’s cookery class this week. Together, everyone had a wonderful time making “Queen of Hearts” jam tarts, filling the room with laughter, delicious aromas and plenty of creativity.

It was lovely to see such fantastic engagement from our residents.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Jackie, daughter of our dearly missed and cherished resident, Heather Sorrell.

Jackie has generously created and hand-made the most beautiful stained glass flowers for our garden in memory of her mum. This thoughtful and creative gift means so much to us all. The flowers will hold a special place in our garden, where we will see them each day and lovingly remember Heather.

Heather was a treasured part of our community, and through these stunning stained glass flowers, her memory will continue to shine brightly among us.

Jackie, we truly appreciate your kindness, talent, and the love that went into creating such a meaningful tribute. Thank you for sharing this beautiful gift with us.

While many people celebrated Valentine’s Day with their loved ones, our dedicated staff were here caring for our residents.

We recognize the commitment it takes to work on a day that is traditionally spent with family and friends, and we are truly grateful for their kindness and professionalism.

To show our thanks and appreciation, we shared a rose with each member of our team and with our residents — a small gesture to express our gratitude, respect, and love for the wonderful community we are proud to be part of.

We enjoyed a truly lovely morning with residents from Depperhaugh Nursing Home, who took part in some retail therapy despite the gloomy January weather.

Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their time shopping, which was followed by a very warm and generous welcome from the new owners of the The Park Hotel 💜

The hospitality was exceptional and made all of our residents feel relaxed, valued, and genuinely welcome.

It was a wonderful way to spend the morning, and the experience was greatly appreciated by all involved! 🥳✨

Residents came together with the lovely ladies from Station 366 for an afternoon filled with singing and dancing.

It was such a special occasion as everyone joined in the music — and a true highlight of the day was when Phyliss joined the singing group to perform one of her favourite numbers 😍🎶

It brought tears to our eyes to see the pure joy on everyone’s faces as we sang and danced together, and to take a quiet moment to remember those we honour on 💜

We gathered to wish Deputy Manager Maria all the very best as she begins her maternity leave for the arrival of her second child 💜

Surrounded by colleagues, Maria enjoyed some cake, good wishes, and lovely gifts for both her and the baby.
