Review of
Morningside Manor Care Home
from Lesley-Anne R (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Mum moved into the Home in late September until she passed away in June. We always found the home and surrounding areas spotless, the laundry staff made sure the correct clothing was returned and if anything went a miss they would search for them. The management team were always available to answer

any queries whether by telephone or email. Every month on the notice board would be a list of activities available to the residents Mum took part in several of these during her stay and thoroughly enjoyed them. Mum enjoyed the Xmas afternoon tea with her granddaughters and although quite ill at the time spent a lovely couple of hours at the Summer picnic with the staff, residents and their families. Every member of staff knew Mum by name, they were very patient, caring and attending to mum with dignity also were a great support to the family. We can't thank them enough for everything they did for mum while she was there.

Overall Experience

Had a wonderful afternoon at Lorimer House annual picnic. The food was delightful and the staff very attentive. Great music and all the residents seemed to enjoy themselves. They even managed to organise the weather considering it had been cold and raining all day the day before. Thank you so much

to ALL the staff for all your hard work, we really appreciate it

Overall Experience

I have only positive experiences with Thorburn Manor. I am very satisfied with the care and find the staff excellent. It is always kept to a high standard of cleanliness and is beautifully appointed and the gardens are a pleasure to be in and a lovely place for residents in the summer to sit out in

such a peaceful setting. I find it nice being a small home and everyone is so friendly.

Staff are excellent and the home is well maintained. Daily activities each morning enjoyed by all. Regular trips also take place but with no pressure to attend. Gardens round the building at Thorburn road are well maintained with lots of seats should you wish to sit outside.

Overall Experience

Dad is very well cared for. All the staff are caring and friendly which gives us the comfort that any issues Dad may have are dealt with professionally and compassionately. We get regular feedback and constructive interaction relating to Dad's care. Being a smaller home there is a real personal feel

throughout.

Review of
Lorimer House
from S H (Husband of Resident) published on 31 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My wife has been living with Alzheimer's Dementia for more than 6 years and I cared for her at home as I thought that would always be best. My health was suffering as a result of disturbed nights and the stress of caring for her 24/7. After discussions with the family, social worker and her doctor,

we decided that the time had come for her to receive full-time care in a nursing home.
Lorimer House provides the care she needs. The staff are excellent and provide personal attention as and when required. The individual rooms with ensuite bathrooms ensure she has privacy whilst the shared sitting room and dining room allows her to interact with other residents. The Home is well maintained with high standards of cleanliness and hygiene. My wife has settled in well and seems very happy with her surroundings and the level of care she receives. For my part, I am relieved that she is relaxed and content, and I am confident that she is in safe hands.

Overall Experience

A huge thank you to all the staff for the delightful Christmas high tea, prepared for my mum and her visiting family and friends.
It was delicious, beautifully presented and very much appreciated.
Our mother has received excellent care within the Lorimer setting. The staff are extremely welcoming

and caring and I particularly enjoyed seeing the gentle encouragement given to my mum to participate and enjoy a dance with staff at the Christmas party.
We would like to thank all the staff for their continued hard work, warmth and cheerfulness.
We appreciate your efforts every day.

Overall Experience

My friend went into Thorburn Manor following a sudden bereavement and deterioration in her own health. From the start the staff were reassuring and kind to both her and to us. I was also reassured to know that many of the staff have been there a long time and still seem enthusiastic in their roles.

The staff have not been fazed by the difficulties my friend has had settling in showing a tremendous degree of knowledge, professionalism and care for her during this time.

Overall Experience

I visit my aunt in Morningside Manor on an unannounced basis and am thus so impressed with the level of care maintained. All staff are so helpful, friendly and attentive to all needs. Nothing is too much to ask of them. The home has a lovely feel and positive energy as soon as you enter. I was lucky

enough to be invited to my aunt's Christmas afternoon tea last week. The food, presentation and service was truly wonderful. Thank you to all for doing an amazing job. It's such a relief to feel my Aunt is in good hands.

Overall Experience

My mother has been living at Lorimer House for over two years. There has been continuity for many of the staff over that period of time so they get to know the residents and understand their needs and moods. The staff are cheerful, patient and caring. The care home is always bright and welcoming with

the garden a huge asset.

Morningside Manor Care Home
from Amy E (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 December 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mum moved into Morningside Manor in early October and I am so pleased with the care she receives. The staff at all levels are so kind and really make an effort to get to know my mum and encourage her to join activities where she can. We went to a festive afternoon tea in a quiet lounge today just

for Mum and a few families and the delicious food and effort that went into arranging that were really appreciated. I feel we were really lucky to get a room in such a supportive caring home. It's also exceptionally clean and "new" and efficiently run- everything you ask about is followed up. I would recommend this home to others, it felt like a good place on first viewing and has exceeded what I hoped it might be like from that visit.
