My mother has been a resident at Almond Valley since late November 2024. So, we have had a good number of weeks to assess every aspect of the care home. The management team are excellent. They have dealt with all the family in a professional and friendly manner. The nursing staff have been thorough and attentive. They have also been very good at keeping us informed of any medication changes or medical issues regarding Mum. The care staff have also been great, looking after Mum in a friendly manner. All in all, I am very satisfied.

Almond Valley is a lovely, homely place for my Mum. The staff are absolutely brilliant, and as a registered nurse myself, I recognise good care when I see it. Nothing is too much trouble, especially for Mum and our whole family. Going through a recent traumatic bereavement, we very much appreciated the support given to us all. I'm very happy that Mum is well cared for in a supportive and friendly environment. Thank you.

My dad arrived into Almond Valley a very frail man who was bedbound. The care and support he has received is beyond expectations. It has taken a while but he is now very settled. The team take care to do things at his pace, making sure he is comfortable and happy at all times. With their support and encouragement, my dad is now able to walk short distances. My dad feels safe, happy and at home at Almond Valley. Initially, I thought Almond Valley was a little pricey, but the fact is, you can't put a price on having the best quality of life possible for him. All I can say is a big thank you to all of the team, the difference you have made to my dad's life is fantastic.

My dad was a resident until the end of January and was the first one to move in. The care and attention he received were second to none. His last 4 months living in the care home were full of fun. The activity coordinators are fantastic and put on so many activities for the residents. All the staff are lovely and made sure we were included in any decision making. Mum was invited to outings also which was lovely for her too.

When the time had come to choose a care home for my mother who has Alzheimer's, I always thought I would visit various homes before making the decision but as soon as we started the search at Almond Valley the search ended. Not only did the place look fantastic and is spotlessly clean but the staff immediately made us feel this was the right choice and a place where my mother would thrive. We receive regular calls with health and well-being updates which really puts our mind at ease. The staff have made it easy for my mother to settle into the home, and daily events keep my mother occupied and engaged with others. The events coordinators are fantastic and post regular social media updates so I can see what activities have taken place and I can see that my mum is enjoying her time in the home. It was a tough decision to put my mother into a care home at the time but it is 100% the correct decision and Almond Valley is 100% the correct choice.

Almond Valley Care Home is a clean, bright, caring and happy home, the activities and social aspects of the care home shine through with regular outings and activities planned daily. The activities team are incredible. The home is modern and kept immaculately clean. All the staff are friendly and approachable. The carers and nurses do an amazing job. My mother-in-law has Alzheimer's and we struggled as a family to give her the care she needed. It was a tough decision to make but Almond Valley made it easy. From the moment we met the staff, we knew she would be well looked after and in safe hands. She has settled in well and it's peace of mind now knowing she is cared for and is safe. I can not recommend Almond Valley highly enough.

Mum was a resident at Almond Valley Care Home until January 2025. The care and experience she received was exemplary. She was looked after so well and we as a family had every confidence in the staff as a whole. Mum engaged in some of the social activities and loved having her hair done. The manager was so approachable, caring and compassionate and always had time for us. We would highly recommend Almond Valley to anyone looking for care.

A very warm welcome awaits you every time you visit. It has a very homely, relaxed ambience. The whole team are very passionate in their work and totally committed in everything they do for their residents. You can feel the positive energy throughout. I would certainly highly recommend Almond Valley Care Home.

The staff are all welcoming, friendly and approachable in all areas My mum is well looked after and there are lots of activities for them to do and mum is always looking happy and enjoying herself in the photos I see of the daily activities that they are doing. I can see that Mum is getting great care which relaxes me in knowing that she is in a great care home and cannot thank them all for the care she is receiving. Can't praise the staff enough.

Beautiful home with lovely facilities and caring, enthusiastic staff. There are always different events or projects residents are encouraged to be involved in and one-to-one time doing whatever the individual wishes. Overall excellent care.

Very caring staff with contact made with me (as Power of Attorney for my relative) to constantly update me with health issues and socialising so that I have felt reassured as to my relative's care and well-being. The accommodation is lovely and I have no issues or worries so far that have posed any problems for us at all.

I couldn't have chosen a better care home, for my husband, the whole team go above and beyond for him and myself. I can leave him, knowing he's in the best and safest place and that he'll be well cared for, which puts my mind at rest, he was the first resident in the Almond Valley care home, in Livingston. The team made his first day so special for him, the whole team are amazing and I can't thank them enough.
