Hawkhill House Nursing Home

from Ken L (Power of Attorney of Resident) published on 10 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The resident has just started her sixth year at Hawkhill House, and with firsthand experience of other friends in other care homes, I am confident Hawkhill House is one of the top care homes in the North east of Scotland. This view relates to her wellbeing and health, standard of care and cleanliness,
food and drinks, her room and the wider environment and her overall satisfaction.
From a personal perspective there are some niggles; getting in and out of the home is too often frustratingly slow, but other homes can be slow too. A few carers can be inclined to forget not all residents have dementia, and the turn-over of care staff is disappointingly high, but again, these are a common challenges for all care homes.
For anyone looking for a care home that has more of a homely feel rather than a clinical institution, Hawkhill House would be a good choice.

Hawkhill House Nursing Home

from Malcolm M (Son of Resident) published on 8 July 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I arrived to visit my mother this morning to find she was recieving personal care. I waited outside her room before going in when the task was done. I have been involved in social care for 34 years, 14 in practice, 20 of those as a trainer, 11 as an SVQ Assessor. I would like to compliment the carers
for the manner in which they carried out the care they provided. Two members of staff in particular spoke with Mum in such a nice way whilst still being very professional. I could get a sense of the Health and Social Care Standards implemeted in a person-centred way. They encouraged Mum to do what she could, maintaining her abililities, and reassuring her if she needed to rest during the process. They used humour, which my Mum loves, just chatting and having a laugh whilst carrying out a very personal task.
I told them how I felt about their practice and also passed it onto Management. I am so happy that Mum is being looked after by such nice and professional carers.

My mother has found every person connected to the home to be so caring, so friendly and yet so friendly. They treat her as they would treat one of the family.
I cannot express how kind everyone is but I can say that I am now able to sleep at night know that someone is looking after mum. We visited
a number of nursing homes in Aberdeen and we can honestly say there are none that match the care and protection given at Hawkhill House. Please continue to provide this excellent service as Mum feels, as we do, that she has just moved home. Thank you so much.

A warm and welcoming environment with a home from home feeling. Staff are friendly and helpful.
Some residents enjoy sitting in the foyer where they can chat to visitors as they pass. There are comfortable well appointed sitting rooms where activities and entertainment take place . As there's always
something going on they are well used!
Rooms have ensuite shower rooms and are newly refurbished , with adequate storage and very comfortable.

My dad was in for respite whilst my mum was in hospital. He has early stage dementia and is at risk of falling. He was well cared for and some of the staff went over and above to look after him. The food and activities were all good. There was a lot of upgrading of the outside area whilst Dad was there.

Hawkhill House Nursing Home

from Judy M (Daughter of Resident) published on 7 November 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum moved into Hawkhill in April after not being able to cope with looking after herself in her own house. As she has memory issues, this wasn't easy for her to agree to moving out of her home of 45 years, however, the lovely caring staff, tasty meals, great activities and entertainment soon had
her settled in no time. She commented on everyone being "so very nice and helpful" and I can very much agree with that comment. Anytime I've been visiting I've had first-hand experience of just how helpful everyone is - this covers all staff and not just nurses and carers. With the death of my dad in September this year, everyone gave great care and compassion towards our family who all came together to console my mum and help her through such a big event in her life. They had just celebrated 66 years of marriage together in July where Hawkhill had provided a cake and party facility for them both on the day. A devastating blow which Mum is now slowly coming to terms with thanks to all staff.

Mum moved into Hawkhill just before her 100th birthday. The kind and caring staff helped her settle quickly and smoothly. They constantly checked with me and her what she did/didn't like - including what she wanted to do on her birthday. They then set up her birthday party exactly as she wished - right
down to the type of cake. We had a wonderful memorable day. Thank you all so much!

from Bill D (Son of Resident) published on 17 September 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My dad moved to Hawkhill in March this year. His mobility was his main issue and staying at home was no longer viable. My first visit to the home was very pleasing indeed. There is a happy atmosphere in Hawkhill which is obvious as soon as you enter. The staff are all very friendly, helpful and cheerful.
My dad unfortunately did not wish to participate in any of the many activities available, preferring to stay in his room. Staff looked after him very well. There was always someone popping in to see that he was okay day or night. He had his meals served in his room. He often commented on how varied and how good the food was.
Sadly, my father passed away at the end of July, but in his last days, the nurses, carers and domestic staff bent over backwards ensuring that he was as comfortable as possible and in keeping me informed on how he was.
I can only thank everyone at Hawkhill for helping my dad. It was comforting to know that he was being well looked after during his stay.

My mum moved into Hawkhill House earlier this year. We were very anxious as all indications were that my mum would not be happy. However, despite my mum's health issues, she is clearly living her best life at Hawkhill. Mum's quality of life is immeasurably improved even though she may not realise it.
All staff are incredibly caring and we can see often how they deal sensitively with all the issues that can arise within the home. The online feedback tools are very useful to get real-time feedback on my mum's day-to-day activities and medical history. Every day there are activities for Mum to take part in - many of which will be new to Mum but the coordinators do a great job of encouraging and facilitating participation. The food is excellent and consequently Mum's diet has improved significantly. Every single member of staff we have encountered are gentle but professional, they clearly know my mum and it provides great comfort to us to know Mum is being well looked after.

We were impressed after our initial tour of Hawkhill House for my mum who has dementia and didn't feel that we needed to view anywhere else. Hawkhill House is very homely, the rooms are a good size and all with ensuite and tv's. It has an open-door policy so you can visit at any time, staff allow access
and is therefore very secure. There are daily activities displayed on their wall which we like to look at. The staff are caring and treat residents with dignity. Mum has settled in and appears relaxed and happy there. Relatives are encouraged to make suggestions and feel involved. Excellent overall.

When I felt I could no longer care properly for my wife at home, I was very apprehensive about her moving into a nursing home.
From the moment I entered Hawkhill House, I was impressed by the general atmosphere and friendliness of the staff I met. Sadly, my wife was only in the home for four days and
was unable to take part in activities other than watching the lovely pantomime put on by the staff. Throughout that time, everyone was extremely kind and caring and I knew she was being very well looked after.
I was impressed by the professionalism of the staff and the very obvious positive team spirit. It was clear that everyone enjoyed their work in Hawkhill and this good feeling is transmitted to visitors and residents.
The manager should be very proud of the team she has built up.
Thank you all very much for helping me and our family through such a difficult period in our lives.

My father is 96 and was admitted to Hawkhill House, a couple of weeks ago. Since that day, I have felt a sense of relief that my father is being so well cared for. He says the food is ‘first class’ and the nurses and staff are kind and caring. My experience with the Manager and her staff is that they
are exceptional, kind, knowledgeable, professional and friendly. Every time I go to visit my father, they tell me where and how he is in the home – before I even ask.
I first rang Hawkhill 2 weeks ago to get help for my father (I live in New Zealand and had just arrived). The Manager and a senior Nurse came and assessed him within 3 hours, and with both his and my agreement, moved him into the care home the same day. Since then, his appetite, general demeanour, mobility and conversation have all improved beyond expectation. I can only thank them all for their continued kindness, calm professionalism and genuinely caring attitude, which prevails throughout Hawkhill House.
