A life dedicated to care

A specialist Exeter nursing home focused on advanced dementia and Alzheimer’s care, with an experienced team, a dementia-aware environment and person-centred support designed around each resident.

Across BN Care Group, the shared values are kindness, independence, dignity, respect, privacy, choice and collaboration. Those values are intended to be visible in the small decisions of everyday care: how people are spoken to, how routines are protected, how families are involved and how staff respond when someone’s needs change.

Our approach

Barton Place specialises in advanced dementia and Alzheimer’s care. The team supports residents whose needs may be complex, working with families and local health professionals to protect dignity, reduce distress and maintain the strongest possible quality of life.

Triinu Poulter — Home Manager

Triinu Poulter

Home Manager

My 27 year nursing career been very colourful. Back in my home country Estonia, I worked in postoperative units for Vascular and Cancer surgery. Later on I joined the Estonian Army and worked on this path 4.5 years. After going to reserve I started to work in a Mental Health Hospital in the acute ward. In 2012 I moved to England with my family and started to work in a Dementia Nursing Home.

I discovered a passion for looking after people with Dementia, and studied in a variety of ways how to look after those suffering from Dementia in most person-centered way possible. In late 2025 I was made the Home Manager for Barton Place.
