Greencross Nursing Home & Lodge

Greencross Nursing Home & Lodge is a listed building close to Cambuslang town centre. Originally an 1888 primary school, the building has been restored and converted, creating a modern care facility but maintaining the charm of the original school.

The home caters for 63 older people and a purpose built unit completed in 2004 has a further 31 en-suite single rooms providing specialist care for Korskakoff’s psychosis.

There are single and shared rooms containing a wash-hand basin, television and telephone point. Toilet and bathing facilities are close to all rooms and en-suite facilities are also available. The bedrooms are homely and residents are encouraged to bring in their personal items.

Greencross has an activities co-ordinator who organises events and helps residents find new interests. There is also a minibus for days out.
