About The Company
At Ashmere, we’ve been supporting communities in Derbyshire for three generations with a proud heritage in elder care. Across our seven care homes, we deliver a full range of services including residential care, nursing, dementia support, complex continuing health care, and end-of-life care — even providing a dedicated household for Deaf and hard-of-hearing residents cared for by BSL-fluent staff. We tailor care plans around each individual, offering 24-hour support, nutritious meals, meaningful social and therapeutic activities, and a warm home-like atmosphere.
Our mission is simple: to offer care as if our residents were family — ensuring comfort, respect, and quality of life every day.
