Erskine Edinburgh Home

My father was a resident in Rivers for 5 years suffering from Alzheimer’s. The care he/we received from everyone at Erskine Edinburgh Home was exemplary. It was an extremely difficult time for our family as we slowly watched our Dad/Husband slip away. As we all came to terms with losing him in mind
but not body and had no idea how long he would stay in that state. Our family were comforted by the excellent care he was receiving and the fact that he was in such good hands. We visited regularly and became part of the Family in Rivers. As Dad got worse they adjusted effortlessly to the next step in his care. This weekend Dad finally broke free of the prison that was Alzheimer’s and passed. Erskine Home once again were there supporting us and Dad right up to the very end and beyond. We can not thank them enough for being there for our family for the whole journey.

The care my friend received at Erskine Edinburgh Home was superb, above and beyond the call of duty. His room, meals, care, social life in their care were all first class. The staff and carers are just wonderful. My friend enjoyed and loved the time he spent there which was a tremendous relief to friends
and family.

I am always thankful to the staff on their overall genuine care they give to my husband and their support to me especially when there is a down day.
The decoration of bright colours of orange/yellows/reds and creams in their sitting/dining room is lovely for the residents and visitors. The friendliness
from the reception as you enter goes a long way to make this care home a very pleasant place to be.

I recommended Erskine Edinburgh Home for a friend who was struggling to care for her 97-year-old mum at home. Within three weeks of putting her name on the waiting list, a bed became available. Although my friend was only in the Erskine for just over three months, she was treated with dignity and the
utmost respect.


Particular thanks to the staff of Craiglockhart House, for the excellent care and dignity shown not just to my friend but all the family, especially in the last three days of her life - your kindness will never be forgotten! I will always recommend Erskine Edinburgh Home to anyone requiring nursing home care.

An excellent facility with caring staff who are well trained and managed. Lines of communication for families are clearly indicated and all requests and suggestions are quickly carried out. The level of care and communication between residents and staff is first class.
Without exception, the staff
are friendly. Positive and fully committed - often in very challenging circumstances.

I cannot describe the many sleepless nights I had before selecting a home for my dad. All the fears and anxieties melted away when he became a resident in Edinburgh Erskine home. The care, support and friendship is exceptional and this goes throughout the organisation at every level. There is always
a positive atmosphere and a lot of laughter and it often feels that staff, residents and their families are just one big family and this provides invaluable comfort and support.
It is wonderful to think that men and women who gave so much are treated with dignity, respect and warmth making them feel wanted and valued.
I cannot thank everyone at Erskine enough.

From the management to the carers, everyone is so hands on. Nothing is too much bother. To watch your loved one change before your eyes is very hard to understand but the staff are always there to help you cope. I couldn't ask for a better "gang" of people to look after my beloved husband. Thank you.

I am visiting from the USA to spend time with my 91 year old brother in the dementia wing. I had visited him 6 months ago when he was in a private care home and was worried about his well-being. But no such worries here. He is so much more brighter and so well-groomed. It is a pleasure for me to see
a huge smile of his face whenever a carer attends to him and to see the encouragement and support he receives from all the care and activities staff. It has been truly inspirational for me to witness the joy that you bring into the lives of our veterans. Thank you.

My father has been a resident for the last three years, it was his wish when his dementia got worse that he wanted to be admitted to Erskine House. He has been very happy in this home, he will be 100 years old in March. He thinks it is the best home in Scotland and I have to agree with him. He is well
cared for, his accommodation is excellent, staff are very friendly and take good care of him. The food is very good and they are entertained well also. I am wanting to put my name down on their list.
