From the management to the carers, nursing staff and entertainment staff - everyone is kind, and caring and can be counted on. They all go above and beyond to provide a valuable, happy caring home. There is a wonderful feeling of peace through and everyone looked after as well as this the meals are great provided by a wonderful catering team. There is also a handyman who works diligently but also takes an interest in everyone - we are extremely happy with the care provided to our mother.

My husband has mixed dementia and has been a resident for 9 months. He sees his stay here as temporary and is often sad/upset that we are not taking him home with us. However, all the staff, carers, nurses, activities and housekeeping are very kind and understanding/patient. He often thanks them for helping him. There is a good bunch of residents there with him. His room/furniture is quite basic, but enough. Invoicing is a bit erratic for my liking but I'm sure there is a good reason for this.

My Mum went into this care home in August 2023. We viewed several care homes before deciding to place Mum here. Elsie Inglis was fresh, clean and had a very peaceful and homely atmosphere. The staff were very welcoming and we were shown around the full home including the kitchen and laundry, which were all immaculate. All staff members took the time to get to know us and always offered us a drink and snack on every visit. The food the residents are served is all homemade and catered to their individual tastes, nothing was ever too much trouble. Mum was always treated with dignity right until the end and I knew going away after every visit that Mum was well cared for. The home has lots of daily different activities the residents can take part in should they wish and residents are encouraged to mix with each other. The manager and the management team are second to none and always available to speak to directly and deal with queries efficiently. Would recommend 100%.

My dad had been a resident at Elsie Inglis for a year. The home is a great place, the team are friendly and welcoming to family members. It is bright and modern and has lovely views of the local park. Nothing is too much trouble and at the weekend we hosted a small engagement party for my son, mainly for Dad’s benefit. The Chef arranged a fabulous buffet for us and baked a delicious cake. It was really special for Dad and great memories were made for us too. I really can’t thank all the team enough for taking such good care of Dad.

My sister was given interim care here for 5 weeks after a couple of months stay in hospital. The care she received from all the staff was amazing. The home itself is clean, modern and very comfortable, the food that I witnessed being served to residents looked appetising. There seemed to be lots of activities for residents to take part in if they wanted to. I was sorry to see her leave.
