Fantastic Care Home, Mum arrived in January 2024 and settled in quickly. So many activities for residents and staff can't do enough for them. I can't praise the staff highly enough, they are all kind, supportive, and very welcoming. Thank you.

Reply from Kirsty Cartin, Home Manager at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your kind review. We aim to ensure that everyone feels welcome at Rashielee, including residents and those close to them.

Best wee home ever, staff very caring and attentive to all the residents. Staff in the sitting rooms at all times during the day. Nothing's a bother. So much to do, so many activities, lots of different ones to suit everyone. Wee trips to the coffee van which is great for getting out in the fresh air.
My relative is very happy here and the staff are so good to her. Wish there were more homes like this.

Reply from Kirsty Cartin, Home Manager at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre has a warm and inviting atmosphere, the staff, who always work as a team, are extremely friendly and approachable. They go above and beyond for residents and genuinely treat them as family members. My mum has been a resident at Rashielee for around four years. In the
period of time, her physical and cognitive function has declined, but the care she receives has always been person-centred, which has continued to improved her quality of life. She may not be able to join in on certain activities but again activities that are suited to her needs are provided, such as namaste. Her needs are constantly reviewed and there is always clear and concise communication between staff and our family. My mum is extremely well looked after and I couldn’t fault the home in anyway, I would and do 100% recommend Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre to anyone who needs to consider care for their loves ones.

Reply from Kirsty Cartin, Home Manager at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

From the moment you enter Rashielee you just know that it is a homely and pleasant place for your mum/dad. Reception staff are always welcoming and take time to say hello and chat. First impressions are important. My mum who has been with Rashielee for just shy of two years now is very well looked after.
Mum is still very sharp witted and the staff take time to chat and yes they have fun. They are also very good at encouraging Mum when she is reluctant to engage with activities. Every time I’m at the home to see Mum, staff stick their heads around the door and say hello. It’s like a big family. Mum also receives great healthcare. I can rest easy in the knowledge that my mum is safe and well looked after.

Reply from Kirsty Cartin, Home Manager at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your kind words about Rashielee. We know that health and wellbeing are intrinsically linked and we do our best to encourage residents to live active lives with opportunities to be active, feel a sense of purpose and to have fun!

All the staff at Rashielee provide an outstanding service, they go above and beyond for all the residents. My mum has settled in very well, and it has proved to be the correct choice of new home for her. Great activities for the residents, and family members are very welcome to join in. Always a warm
and friendly welcome when visiting. Thank you.

All the staff are friendly, fun loving and definitely go above and beyond while caring for the residents. There is always a welcoming friendly atmosphere around the home and it is always clean and tidy. The staff do a great job entertaining the residents every day. They could do with someone on the
reception desk at the weekends as the care staff are very busy caring for the residents and it seems a shame distracting them to answer the door for visitors and deliveries.

Reply from Andrew Watson, Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience of Rashilee care center. We are delighted to hear your impression of the atmosphere and cleanliness of our home and will carefully review your thoughts in respect weekend reception cover.

Mum moved in during the first lockdown, the manager put me at ease right away and made the adjustment for her as seamless as possible. My mum is well looked after, the staff are all lovely, and if you ever need something answered someone is always around to answer any queries. Most importantly my mum
is safe. The team do a cracking job and keep them regularly entertained with theme days and activities. When care needs come to me I hope I find somewhere as good as this to stay.

Reply from Andrew Watson, Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you so much for your review of our care home. Activities and entertainment are so important to wellbeing and it is lovely to hear your thoughts on this aspect of our care.

My mum has been cared for in the home for several years. She settled in well straight away thanks to the thoughtful care and security which all the staff in the home provide. Within weeks of moving in she was saying ‘ I should have moved here years ago ‘ which was comforting to hear. The staff team
are open to helping to support mum and to keep her happy and go out of their way to manage the physical changes that she is experiencing. Communication between staff and family is very good and we are promptly notified of any change to mum's health or care needs. In short, it’s a great care home!

Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre is an exceptional place. The level of care is above and beyond. They truly care about the residents.

This care home has been fantastic for my aunt. Every single need is taken care of. The staff do so much for the residents, every day staff and residents can be seen with smiles on their faces. Residents have sensory time which definitely benefits my aunt.
The home is very clean and tidy. All residents
are treated with dignity which is of huge importance. Another thing I admire is management do not hide away in an office, they are out and about taking part in activities and mixing with visiting relatives. The staff members are hard working but again acknowledge relatives. The home has a beautiful garden and weather permitting is used by residents to relax in with their visitors. Rashielee has a real family feel to it, we can rest knowing my aunt is being well looked after.

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for taking time to post a review of our care home. If your care needs determine that the best place for your safety and care is admission to a care home, then make time to choose the best care home you can. We know how hard it can be giving up the home that you love and feel comfortable in and we we work hard to make this care home the best care home. The staff at Rashielee are amazing and understand that it is the people who live, work and visit here that make it what it is.

My dad has been a full-time resident for 3 years. He has settled and he is cared for extremely well. I don't know where we would be without the care, support and expertise of the wonderful staff in this care home. The staff keep me up to date with anything I need to know and the manager sends out a
weekly email informing everyone of what’s been going on in the home and Covid restriction updates regarding visiting. There’s always themed days arranged which residents seem to enjoy and by the look of it I think the staff do too, the enthusiasm and laughter they’ve brought to many residents, to keep their spirits up through this pandemic has been amazing. Thank you all so much for everything you do each and every day!

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your review. There is no question that the staff at Rashielee look upon their jobs as more than a job. They go the extra mile to make sure our residents are cared for and their needs are being met. The theme days are always good fun, it certainly brightens up the day. We will be making improvements later this year and we will look for ideas and suggestions. Thank you.

Ever since my aunt went into the care home, she has been very happy. It has also given us and my uncle peace of mind which is also really important. The staff work really hard to look after the residents and give them a variety of activities.

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your review. It is very satisfying to read reviews that support the work that all our carers and support staff do. Our priority is our residents, their care and meeting their needs.

My dad came into Rashielee Care Home in May 2021. Dad had community carers and myself looking after him but it wasn’t enough. Since coming into Rashielee it has given him a new lease on life
Dad has all his needs met with a loving caring staff. He has his physical, mental and nutritional needs met.
He also loves the activities shared with other residents.
The staff take part including the management dressing up on theme days.
He loves the music with the glitterball on the ceiling and the wall. Playing bingo, painting pictures, he will try anything!
As a Christian, he loves me to read his bible with him and pray. I would like to thank all the carers, management, cleaners, kitchen staff, activity coordinators handyman, gardeners and anyone else I’ve missed every one is a team and meet all the residents' needs. Dad is happy he has company, which is important. He loves using a wheelchair and calls it his bike.
Thank you all staff and hope dad is able to enjoy his time.

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your review. We are pleased that your dad has settled well and is enjoying life at Rashielee, that is the goal of everyone who works here and it is satisfying to know that aim is being achieved. The great work that the staff do will continue until solid 5's are achieved, and it won't stop there. We need to ensure that we keep getting 5 stars from you and everyone else who has a stake in our care home. Thank you.

Getting my dad to Rashielee care home was a real breakthrough. Prior to this, he was at risk at home, falling regularly, having bad hallucinations and the worst of it all was loneliness. He was going downhill fast. Now, after a few months at Rashielee, he is a changed man. All of the staff are amazing
and keep him involved with the many stimulating activities they arrange. He told me he loves it and everything is free. Well done and thank you to the whole team. Best regards.

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your review. Sadly it is often unintentional self-neglect that leads to frailty as people get older and especially if living alone, my own father was that person. With acceptance and even a short stay in care, it is extremely satisfying to see dramatic changes in their life and a new chapter open up. Fantastic. The staff at Rashielee work hard to make life better for our residents and encourage involvement in everything that goes on in the home. It has been difficult in the last 2 years with Covid-19 and the risks it brings to our residents, the fear of coming into a home and the stress put upon relatives not being able to visit. We are working on areas in the home to make improvements to the rooms and will seek suggestions from residents and relatives when the programme starts. I will be happy to discuss your score in respect of cleanliness, I don't think we have ever hit a 3. Thank you.

The care my family member received at Littleinch was great, no complaints at all. The staff are fantastic, from management to nursing staff, carers, everyone! They have a real genuineness in their care for the patients and making sure their needs are met, as a family member I was very comfortable that
her needs were met, always lots happening to get involved in and felt very relaxed that she was safe.

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your review. The staff at Rashielee do not consider their work as a job, it is a vocation. Their dedication and attention to detail are reflected in the faces and reactions of the residents. Our goal is to ensure that when you, as a visitor, leave the building you will be confident in the knowledge that your loved one will be cared for as you would do yourself.
We will be making some improvements to the home later this year and hope that you may help with some suggestions. The staff will let you know when. Thank you.

My mum has been here for 6/7 weeks now and her overall general health has improved significantly in this short period of time. Mainly due to the high level of care and attention, she has received from both the medical and care staff alike. They are in constant communication with all family members to
keep us updated on Mum's progress and nothing is ever an issue for them. Would totally recommend this facility to anyone who may find themselves in the same position as we did recently and requiring a safe, caring environment for a loved one. So glad we chose Rashielee Care Home!

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your review. We have all gone through the mill with Covid-19 and your input is very gracious considering we have some catching up to do in some areas of the home. It's a bit like painting the Forth Rail bridge just when you get things organised you have to go back to the start. We'll keep you posted with our plans as we move forwards and trust you will be happy to make suggestions.

My mum has been a resident for just over a month. Staff are very professional and caring, nothing is a problem to them. Management and staff are very welcoming when we visit the home and are very good at communicating with the family. Myself and my family have peace of mind that my mum is being well
cared for and firmly believe we have made the right choice in choosing Rashielee.

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your review. It is very kind of you to take the time to submit your thoughts. It's people who make the home the way it is and residents, relatives and members of staff make it so. Later this year we will be planning to revigorate the rooms and your input will be sought. I'd like to investigate why we scored only 4 stars for safety and security so perhaps when you next visit you could ask for me or relay your thoughts to the staff. We are in between activities staff, we'll ask you more about that soon.
Thank you.

It's almost a year since my mum was welcomed as a resident at Rashielee. Neither she nor I had any idea of what to expect following her stroke but, as we both live in Erskine, Rashielee was the obvious choice for full-time care. Having never even visited a home before, and hearing horror stories of
treatment in others, I can honestly say I terrified of what to expect. However, from the very first meeting with the staff any concerns I had disappeared. I have never met such caring and loving people, not only towards mum but also to me. I've laughed and cried with them all, and am so grateful they are who they are. The home is immaculate and clean. Mum's room is just as she wants it and nothing is too much trouble. Mum said to me the other day that she loves where she lives and can't imagine being anywhere else. I think that's high praise indeed. Thank you one and all.

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

There aren't too many reviews that remind me of why we set out in this journey of providing care for vulnerable people and support for relatives. You described exactly how I felt when I was looking for care for my mother. We couldn't find what we were looking for and my wife who is a retired nurse set out to make a difference. I hope we have, it is a struggle at times but everyone mucks in and helps and that's what counts. We will be making improvements to various areas of the home soon and trust we can count on your input.
Thank you.

My mum became a resident in February 2020 and the team have made a very difficult transition much easier for the whole family.
The whole team are very caring and look after mum and all of the residents very well. One staff member, in particular, is a life line between myself and mum and there is nothing
she won’t do for anyone.

Reply from Irvine Watson, Managing Director at Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre

Thank you for your kind words of support. The staff at Rashielee are amazing and I am proud of the way they put the care of our residents above themselves. Without a dedicated team, we would be lost. It has been an exceptionally difficult time since your mum came to live at Rashielee, the worry of how Covid-19 would affect all who lived here has been an enormous strain on relatives who were not allowed to visit. We have made it through with strict controls and staff who went to exceptional lengths to keep everyone safe. We will soon be catching up on some areas that need attention in the home. I trust we can rely on you to make suggestions.
Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.893)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.893) out of 10 for Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 25 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 25 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 4.893 for Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre is calculated as follows: ( (268 Excellents x 5) + (30 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 299 Ratings = 4.893

  • 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 Rashielee Care Home and Day Centre is based on 25 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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4, which has been reached with 25 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.

Jennifer has always enjoyed supporting older adults, both in the care home and NHS - a passionate advocate for person centred care. She attained 'Nurse of the Year' in 2022 at the Scottish Care Home Awards, a career highlight. Jennifer is a proud mother of two daughters who are following her lead, pursuing careers in health and social care. When not in Rashieee, Jennifer enjoys going to the gym and movie nights with her fiancée.
