My mother was at Highlands Borders for 7 years and although she had
dementia, always said that the carers were lovely. I could see that for
myself. She was beautifully looked after. The home always seemed a happy
place. The staff were attentive to her needs and always kept me updated.
They acted with professionalism and compassion, always treating her with
the greatest respect. I felt so lucky to have peace of mind and the care
she received in her final days was exemplary.

My Mum was asked to leave the care home by management because I made a
complaint to safeguarding regarding bad falls not being informed and
them not knowing how it happened. Residents are left to soil in a bed
when they don't have their two main carers to take them to the toilet.
Nails not being clean and cut to the point it causes a fungal infection.
Same evening meal every day with no choice. Staff cannot fault but
cannot say the same for management. This care home should be
investigated so it does not keep happening.
