From our initial contact seeking respite for Dad, we were so pleased with the immediate and professional response we received. After visiting Muirton House, we felt assured and confident that this would be a good place. During Dad's respite, he was well looked after with staff going above and beyond to reassure him he was treated as a welcome guest.

My mother-in-law has been a resident for the past 8 years. She is happy, extremely well cared for and looked after. The staff are amazing, professional, caring and approachable for anything. The activities and outings laid on are wonderful. We live in Dorset and visit whenever possible, but happy and content to know my mother-in-law is in the best place and being cared for by the best staff.

My mother-in-law is doing well with the care here. Some days she says better than others. She has Macular Degeneration and although looks like she can see, staff need to know she can't see well at all. Needs help with such and her balance is very poor.

My mother gets good care and is very comfortable. I am happy with the care she gets.

I have been visiting my sister for 18 months and am very happy with the care she receives there. Not an easy lady - staff show patience, compassion, all understanding in dealing with her. I also get support from the staff nurses in dealing with my own emotions. I would recommend Muirton House to people looking for a place that deals well with dementia sufferers.

Mum has been a resident of Muirton House since October 2023. It was a hard decision for my sister and I to find a care home for Mum, as she had lived in her own home till that point. Staff were supportive and helped Mum and us settle her into her new home. Knowing she is in a safe and caring environment means so much to us. Mum has now fully settled in and enjoys the company of other residents. She joins in some of the many interesting activities that are regularly scheduled for the residents. The lady who organises the activities is always cheerful and welcoming. The grounds are lovely, and we look forward to taking Mum outside for more than a quick walk, in warmer weather. Staff are caring, attentive, respectful and nothing is too much trouble.

My wife was on an interim care placement in Muirton House Nursing Home following an extended medical stay in hospital. The staff throughout the home were all courteous and friendly, nothing was a problem. The meals and kitchen staff were excellent too. She particularly enjoyed the gardens, entertainment and exercise classes. Special thanks must go to the team at Ericht View and the activities staff for being professional and inclusive, and to the home managers and handyman/gardener who helped ensure a smooth transition home.

Following a couple of respite admissions to Muirton House for my mum, I made the decision to put her on for full-time nursing care. I want to take this opportunity to thank the manager, nursing staff, carers and the dedicated staff at Muirton House. I have no regrets about my decision, my mum is well cared for, treated with respect and her dignity maintained at all times. I highly recommend anyone struggling with a loved one with dementia, to entrust them into Muirton House.

I feel the service at Muirton House is excellent. Myself and family are very happy that our loved one resides there. I cannot comment on the activity events as my wife is not able to participate in anything due to her health condition.
18 April 2023
My wife has been a resident at Muirton House Nursing Home for over three years. It has a warm and welcoming atmosphere and I am happy and content that she is well cared for in an excellent and safe environment and is being looked after by well-trained, caring and friendly staff who are always happy to take the time to discuss any worries or concerns you might have.
14 March 2023
Very happy with the care given to my sister. She is very well looked after and is happy.

My sister moved here in September 2022 and has settled in well. The unit is a good size and has the feeling of a family environment. There are always plenty of activities going on, and the residents regularly have outings in the minibus, which they all seem to enjoy. The staff are all friendly and caring and seem to have genuine empathy with the residents. I have been very happy with my sister's care and am delighted that she moved here.
28 February 2023
I have found the staff to be very proactive in seeing to my sister's needs. I am satisfied that my sister is receiving the best care and attention from staff who continually show compassion, kindness and consideration. One aspect of the home that I think can be improved is with regard to the bedroom and ensuite facilities. Although adequate, they are showing signs of wear and tear and, in my view, require upgrading.

Our relative is hard of hearing and very little sight. The resident is 98 years old and is not the easiest of residents as he speaks his mind sometimes upsetting make staff in particular who he feels do not always give him the attention she thinks is appropriate. Because of staff shortages, I know it is difficult to provide instant attention when it is required.
01 March 2022
I can't praise the staff at Muirton House highly enough. My father received the very best of care and staff went to such efforts to make his room lovely and homely for him. The staff took fantastic care of his belongings and took the time and trouble to always ensure that Dad felt able to take pride in his appearance. His care plan ensured he was treated as an individual and with the utmost respect and dignity at all times.
25 November 2021
My father was extremely well looked after in the short time he spent here. The staff turned his room into a home for him and in the late stages of his life, made him very comfortable and treated him with respect.
07 July 2021
I visit Mum weekly and am always greeted with a friendly face. Despite staff having the difficult job of doing lateral flow tests, they manage to make you feel at ease, so much so that after a few times you don't even feel it. Mum always looks smart and well cared for and her room clean and tidy. Mum's mood can be up and down but the staff appear to deal with it well. Mum's dementia has deteriorated slightly during the pandemic but she is always happy to see me and my brother. Mum was still very reliant on us when lockdown happened but you can see that she is now comfortable in her surroundings and with the carers.
28 June 2021
Although my mother was only with Muirton House for a short time we found the staff to be wonderfully caring and very kind to both Mum and ourselves. Muirton House provides patient centred care, is friendly and clean and is set in the most beautiful grounds. Our family would like to thank the staff for looking after Mum, and us, so very well.

Very caring staff who look after my wife very well. Although her health has worsened she seems very settled.

I cannot fault the service, and the staff are excellent.
