Care Homes Owned by The Salvation Army in City of Edinburgh

welcoming and do everything to provide care, support and love to my mum.
I am extremely happy that I chose Davidson House to care for my mum.

updates to medication etc. My brother is very happy in the home and enjoys the activities laid on. He thinks of the facility as his home now.

fault. I especially like the beauty treatment salon which I know she will enjoy from time to time. Good size day room for activities, watching tv, having treats (ice cream/lollies etc) or just having a snooze and there is always plenty of staff around and have noticed they take the time to rotate and chat to the residents. My cousins room is always very clean, her bedding is changed regularly. I must commend the staff for keeping me up to date with my cousins welfare which makes me feel more at ease knowing she is getting the best care possible. I find that every member of staff is very friendly and helpful & would not hesitate in recommending this care home to anyone.

with the family. I really appreciate the effort put in.

is very happy thank you Eagle Lodge

Lodge is run.

and no real explanation just avoidance. They did care when she was on end-of-life care, won't fault that, but a lot of questions to be answered in time!

to keep residents stimulated and busy. The kindness of staff and activities make this place very special and I am very blessed that my mum is there. The staff are very receptive to any issues and are always adapting to help meet the needs of residents. Social media posts keep me updated about everything that residents are doing when I am at work which means I know my mum is having a good time and is very comforting. Thank you, everyone for all that you do.

sense I felt was the close loving feeling I felt from all the carers and management who kindly showed me around. It has taken a while for my partner to settle in but I can honestly say I never leave the home without the knowledge that he is being loved and cared for and if I have any issues at all they are dealt with kindly and with compassion.
I could not imagine my partner being anywhere else; that in itself is a reflection I have for this loving home.

what I have seen and what my Aunt has told me. Residents are not pressured to get up if they feel like a long lie in, or don't feel like taking part in activities. It is nice to see little things, like nails being manicured and painted. My Aunt always loves the sweet trolley doing its rounds, with plenty of chocolate and crisps to keep her happy! When we have visited in the past, we were often given refreshments and welcomed to join in with singing songs, or the various activities of the day. We had many a fun time visiting, and the Grandchildren enjoyed it too. Staff are friendly and on residents' birthdays, they are made a fuss of with gifts and cake etc. A real home from home!

on a daily basis are a testament to how well this home is run with a particular focus on music, hairdressing, and simple activities to keep the residents mentally active.
The first thing I noticed the first time I visited was the absence of any unpleasant smells, my sister's room was always warm and comfortable and well ventilated and spotlessly clean.
Keep up the good work and well done all of you.

the care home in a detailed way.
I cannot overstate how grateful we are to the team at Eagle Lodge for their wonderful care. The uplifting, Salvation Army spiritual emphasis, wonderful care and food combined with a busy and cheerful programme of activities; outings and importantly singing made Mum's stay at Eagle Lodge a pleasure.

excellent care she has received she is now approaching her 92nd birthday. As a family, we are also kept informed and we feel 'quite at home' when we visit. Cannot rate high enough.

and couldn't wait to share his experience with me. My dad is happy so that makes me very happy.

card making and is an excellent vendor of the cards at the bi-annual fairs held at the care home. It is heartwarming to see how caring and dedicated all staff are and all are welcomed whether visiting briefly or not! If I ever need to go into care, this would be my number 1 choice!

do consider Eagle Lodge but don't take my word for it, arrange a visit and see for yourself!
