The care my parents receive at Abbotsford Nursing Home is so wonderful. The staff treat them with such kindness and respect. They genuinely treat them like they are members of their own family. The staff are warm, gentle and amazing. Always there with a joke and a cuppa and a biscuit. Every member
of staff you come into contact with gives you their time.
There are lots of activities on offer and nothing is too much trouble. They will accommodate any requests with a gentle touch. We are so well informed of every aspect of their care.
As a family, we cannot express the happiness and gratitude we feel that our parents are so well cared for.

Mum became a resident in Abbotsford in June 2023 after a shocking experience in another care home.
Over the next 3 or 4 months they managed to get Mum back to a similar condition to when she entered the first care home.
There are many activities run by staff and all the residents encouraged to participate.
Her condition meant that she thought that she was back at work as a cleaner. The staff would play along and gave her a pinny and her old carpet sweeper. She would boss the staff about and tell them how the cleaning should be done. We celebrated her 91st Birthday party in the lovely big room that looks across to Arran with most of the staff singing Happy Birthday to her.
The professionalism and care of all the staff allowed us to spend quality time with her for the last year of her life. They always made us so welcome, were friendly and nothing was too much effort. Dinner with residents for visitors was available at no extra cost and there was always plentiful tea/coffee & biscuits.

This is my second review as Dad has been living here for nearly a year. Everything that was right from the beginning continues to be excellent. I am constantly delighted by the wide range of activities for residents and that he has the choice of taking part or not depending on how he feels. He has
so much contact with staff, whether he is resting in his room alone, or having his meal in the dining room, or attending events in the lounge. It's lovely to see him so well groomed and cared for in a homely and clean setting. He's been on the ferry to Arran for the day which is great, as he's always been keen on the boats and we didn't imagine he'd ever be on it again. We picked the home partly because of the lovely views of the harbour. He has put on weight and his colour is so much better. A couple of times he's been poorly and had very quick attention from the local GP. I know a bit about care homes professionally and I could not ask for more. I am so impressed and also grateful.

Dad came to Burnlea straight from hospital. We were overjoyed when we heard a room was free for him as, being local, we knew he was about to receive the very best of care.
The first big surprise was when we visited the day after he had been admitted, after languishing in hospital for over 3 months,
and found him in the sitting room looking as if he'd never been in hospital at all. He was fully clothed, washed, shaved, looking a 'million dollars'. What a relief! On looking around all the residents looked really well turned out, there was none of the 'old people stench' I'd experienced when Mum had been in care, the whole place was spotlessly clean and fresh but most of all the staff were all bright eyed and genuinely friendly. It honestly feels like Dad is being looked after by members his own family.
After so many years of looking after my Dad's concerns it's a huge relief not to be worried about his care.
This is an exceptionally well-managed home!

My mum has been a resident at Burnlea since autumn 2023 - I have been really impressed with the standard of care she has received. Mum's care, both in terms of general care and nursing care, has been of a high standard. Prior to entering Burnlea, there was not a day that went by without Mum telling
me about her pain - now she never reports being sore. She has gained much needed weight. She has been very well looked after by a friendly and happy team.

My brother has been a resident at Abbotsford since October 2022. He is dependent on the staff for all of his needs, eating, drinking, personal care etc. He was warmly welcomed from the first day and settled in very well. His general health and mental well-being have improved enormously and he feels
very safe and well looked after. The staff are friendly, professional, and caring and make sure that my brother's needs are met.
I visit weekly and can see for myself how much improvement my brother has made and how settled he feels.
They are regular activities laid on which has helped him to feel part of the home community. A staff member took him out to the local cinema on her day off, and another recently took him out shopping for new clothes. In July he and 11 other residents, with 12 staff (again on their days off) made a day trip over to the local town for fish and chips and some sea air.
I feel reassured that my brother is receiving the care he needs in such a supportive and homely environment.

Abbotsford staff are amazing. In their spare time, on June 29th, they took eight residents across in wheelchairs to the Isle of Arran on the ferry for a few hours. This was no mean feat and such an incredibly generous act. Two of those residents come from Arran, one of them my mum, and it meant the
world to her. I was there to see how much everyone enjoyed their day out, including the staff, who are clearly a close-knit team who have a lot of fun together. Nothing is too much trouble for them - they go above and beyond when it comes to fulfilling the wishes of the residents and caring for them in general. We feel so privileged to have been able to get my mum into Abbotsford. The rooms are nicely decorated, comfortable and kept clean. Mum enjoys the food, the activities and the company. Most importantly, the care in every sense is truly excellent. Every resident is made to feel special. Can't recommend Abbotsford highly enough - can't thank the staff highly enough for all they do.

The overall impression of Abbotsford is of a caring, friendly, welcoming community.
All staff know all the residents, visitors are welcomed, and family are kept well informed. Staff are very approachable and helpful.
Abbotsford has a homely feel. It is very well maintained and presented; attractive
both inside and outside. Food is excellent and plentiful.
There is a great variety of activities on offer for residents, who are gently encouraged to participate, but without pressure. Staff engage enthusiastically.
The excellence of Abbotsford comes from the remarkable staff who work there, across all job roles. Their commitment is outstanding; for example a number of staff volunteered to take residents on a day trip to a specific island in their own time. It's impossible to put a value on that.
Mum refers to Abbotsford as "our place" - it really is her home, and we are very grateful that the medical care, personal help, and support she needs is provided in a great and vibrant environment.

As a family we never envisaged our mum having to require care that we couldn't provide. However, some decisions can sadly be out of your control and this was the case when our mum required 24-hour nursing care.
Our mum was a resident in Abbotsford for almost 2 years. During that time the staff got
to know her and our family really well. She was so well cared for by everyone. She was encouraged to socialise and to be involved in the many activities run by staff. At the same time if she wanted a day relaxing in her room her wishes were respected. As a family we always felt involved with Mum's care at Abbotsford. We were always kept informed and we could visit at any time. We can't express our gratitude enough towards the caring, professional staff at Abbotsford. They work so well as a team and in turn that comes across as such a friendly and welcoming atmosphere to both residents and visitors.
My sister and I could rest easy knowing Mum was safe in Abbotsford.

I really cannot fault anything about Burnlea. The care is excellent and the general attention to detail is very high.
Even though the main building is old, it is kept in a very good state of repair. I think many of the residents feel very at Home there.

With support and advice from Abbotsford management, my dad entered Abbotsford in April 2023 and immediately felt very much at home due to the warm and caring nature of all the staff. I feel very lucky that my dad has settled in well and I feel confident that he is well looked after. The staff are all
very caring and compassionate, not just to my dad but to the wider family and I've always felt very welcome. I've always been impressed with the different daily activities whether it be quizzes, singalongs, Football Memories sessions, bowling etc. My dad loves music and has really enjoyed these types of activities. There is always something going on to stimulate the residents. The meals are always excellent and varied and I know dad is often given an extra cake or two! I am particularly impressed how the staff contact me and advised if dad has had an accident etc. I feel very lucky and relieved dad is placed in such a lovely, caring nursing home.

Everytime I visited the care home I received a warm welcome from all the staff. I always found my mum well-presented and clean and tidy. Her room is very clean and tidy too and her toilet and shower area well kept. Mum is pleased to see information kept on her whiteboard in her room and new information

Mum was having a terrible time with Alzheimer's and had bad experiences with other care homes before we were lucky enough to find Abbotsford Nursing Home. Everyone was just lovely, so kind and caring, compassionate and professional. The standards of care, hygiene, cleanliness and cosiness are all outstanding.
It is quite a small home in an excellent, homely environment so Mum felt comfortable and got to know all the staff really well. I know she was relaxed as she got back some of her cheerfulness. She loved her pretty room and view of the garden.
We feel blessed to have had such a good experience for Mum when she needed it most. I can't thank everyone at Abbotsford enough for everything they did for us.

After a terrible experience in another care home, I observed intently all staff. The family are always so welcome at events, and I soon relaxed as I observed staff/residents interactions. They are so aware of residents' needs/abilities and were caring to all. It has a homely ambience, and the cleanliness
is excellent. Residents were treated with dignity and respect. The food and drink was amazing and plentiful. Five stars to this fabulous place.
Mum passed away on the 18th of June, and the support and care we all received as she slipped away was so comforting.
They all lined up as she was leaving.
