I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every member of staff for making my mother's transition from her own property to her new home at Kirk House. The home has a dedicated and professional team of staff, who are well-managed by their senior management team. The senior management team took the time to understand my mother's specific needs and created a bespoke care plan. Nothing is too much trouble. My mother has only been in the home for a month but we have seen such a difference in her mental health and general well-being. My mother is now showing interest in hobbies she enjoyed previously, such as painting, which the team have been able to facilitate. The food is amazing which my mother so enjoys. This has led to a physical change in her appearance for the better. All staff have been most welcoming and have encouraged us to visit freely. This has allowed regular visits from family and friends. I would have no hesitation in recommending Kirk House to anyone.

Kirk House is a well-run and happy residential and nursing home with a lovely family atmosphere. The staff are very helpful and make sure everyone is well looked after and cared for and their individual needs are met. The activities that take place from time to time are always very well planned and organised and are enjoyed by everyone too.

We are happy with the general running of the home. Staff appear caring of the resident's needs. Personally, I would prefer more activities or even an outing with some of the more able residents, or maybe having some entertainment in the home ie: Bingo, singer, music etc. I don't like the fact that all residents are to be in bed before 8pm. I also don't like that there is only three staff on of an evening, as more able residents get neglected or left to own devices a lot.

Excellent staff can't be more helpful. The manager and all the staff look after my mother as if she were their own. They have lots of activities and things to make her stay a happy one.

Mum has been in Kirk House for almost 3 years now. During that time, she has received wonderful care. All her needs are met and she seems happy and content. Kirk House has a lovely homely feel and the staff are amazing.

This is Mom's first month in Kirk House. The care home manager and staff have made the transition from hospital to the home very smooth. Enabling a weekend admission was greatly appreciated. The care staff have taken very good care of Mom and have been welcoming to family and friends. We are very pleased that Mom is being managed without the need for daily sedatives which were being used in hospital.

I am very happy for my wife to be here. She is being looked after in a very considerate way and I am always made to feel very welcome and encouraged to stay for meals if they coincide with my visit. All the staff are very friendly, polite and helpful and any concerns about her well-being are recognised and acted upon in an appropriate manner.

They have given excellent care and consideration to my husband, sometimes going above and beyond.

My father has settled in extremely well. He really enjoys life here, he has improved beyond our expectations, this is due to the very high level of care and attention he receives daily. He can't praise them highly enough and for that we are grateful. Long may it continue.

My father has received stirling care here since arriving coming up on 2 years now. Quality care for elderly people. Independent living at it's best. Highly recommended. The place to be, highest quality staffing and each resident has their own apartment within the complex. Hope it's here when I get older!
