A huge thank you to all the great staff at Strathview for the real care and attention they give supporting Mum. She has been a resident for nearly 5 years and in this time has become increasingly dependent on carers to do everything for her as her dementia progresses. They truly know her and they are
so patient, kind and respectful of her needs and moods, whilst being mindful of others. We are always welcome to visit and be treated as part of the 'family'. It is such a comfort to know she is there and we are extremely grateful to the whole team who work so hard to make Strathview such a nurturing, safe and positive place.

Delighted that my father has settled so easily and happily at Strathview, having come from another home. The care team have really helped him without overwhelming him and has managed his needs and equipment very smoothly. The move means he is now in the same home as his wife and it's great to hear that
they spend time together when appropriate. It makes visiting as a family much simpler and the home is great at providing space and support for this to happen.

My father has now settled really well in Strathview. I find he is safe there and given attention, care and encouragement. He has nothing but praise for the taste and quality of the food. It's a busy and well-run bungalow. The staff are nice to him. They pay attention to when a member of staff needs
to take him for an appointment at the nearby surgery. Thanks so much, Strathview!

I would like to say a huge thank you to all of the amazing staff at the Strathview Care Home for the understanding, patience and care they show my brother who suffers from dementia. As I live four hundred miles from the home I am not able to visit as much as I would like, but when I phone the staff
always take the time to let me know how he is and occasionally they will arrange a video call for me, which I really appreciate.

Staff here care, all of them. My wife has lived at Strathview for a year now and is part of the Strathview 'family'. I visit frequently and see happy residents who are respected and cherished. I also see happy staff. The home is small and intimate. The food is fresh and tasty. The rooms are comfortable,
en suite and of a good size. There is nothing corporate, cold or matter of fact here. Be in no doubt, this is a very special care home.

My mother was lucky enough to be given a place at the care home. We were invited a few times to view the home and given plenty of info. My mother's move went well, and we were able to have her room all ready for her arrival. All the staff welcomed her, and she is very happy in her new home. She gets
lots of attention, and they have plenty of activities to keep her occupied. She is very happy, which makes my sister and I very happy. I can't thank the staff enough for welcoming and caring for my mum.

I love going to visit my sister in her care home. Strathview sits in a lovely location. The residents have a lovely outlook. On visiting, the staff all know who I am, and call me by my name and inform me of my sister. At the time of the pandemic, all the correct procedures were followed. I visited my
sister yesterday, we were in the lounge, and we were singing and dancing - love to see the laughter.

My brother has recently moved into Strathview Care Home, and I am really delighted with everything. The room is very comfortable, but the real 'cherry on the cake' is the staff. They are so caring and cheerful. I have nothing but praise for the people that are now looking after him. He is managed in
a gentle but constructive manner with a clear strategy of how to plan his ongoing care in the best possible way. He could not be in a better place.

Keep up the excellent work.

When visiting, I find the staff very professional and accommodating. My mother-in-law is well looked after and is included in projects and activities.
Food is tailored to her requirements, which she enjoys.
The home, in general, is clean and tidy with a bright outlook, like a large family house where
everyone is involved.
Minibus trips have recently restarted, which seem to be a hit with the residents, as have visits to a local shop and cafe.
Would definitely recommend this care home.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.984)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.984) out of 10 for Strathview Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.984 for Strathview Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (186 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 189 Ratings = 4.984

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Strathview Care Home is based on 16 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 25 registered maximum number of service users is 5, which has been reached with 16 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Abi Rose-Armstrong

Job Title: Registered Manager

I have worked at Strathview Care Home for more than 7 years and prior to that cared for my mum and also worked in the private care sector. At Strathview I have worked my way up from Administrator to Deputy Manager and finally Home Manager, so I know the team well. I have always worked very closely with my team, which is very important to me.


As a small home it is vital that we support each other and work well as a team, every member of the team knows they can speak to me whenever they may need to, and the same goes for our residents and their families.
As the Manager at Strathview Care Home, I enjoy seeing how even just the smallest interaction on a daily basis can lighten someone’s face and make a difference. I work with people who have given their all to everyone around them and now it is their time to be looked after.


We provide a home-from-home experience for our residents and this extends to their family and friends. I take my responsibilities very seriously and am passionate that we provide a safe and secure environment for each and every resident at Strathview, whilst providing the highest level of care. I pride myself in treating every resident and every visitor as if they were family – always remembering we are guests in their home and not the other way around.


I personally feel that development and training are very important for both the team and myself, every day is a school day! I am proactive in supporting my team in taking up all the opportunities provided as we want to be able to offer the best experience possible to our residents, delivering quality care.


Away from work, I enjoy baking and cooking, bringing in some of the treats whenever possible, I like to make people happy. I also love learning, and I am regularly buried in an online course. My ideal holiday would be camping in Northern France, although I do like to take a few home comforts with me.
