I received a phone call to say that he was unwell & waiting on an ambulance.
The nurse was great. So calm, caring, and reassuring. I really felt that
she genuinely cared.
He was admitted to the hospital and spent 4 days there. I brought him back to Cumbrae Lodge today after he was discharged.
Again the welcome he got was lovely.
The lovely carers got him settled back in.
My husband said he was happy to be back among his carers & Nurses in Islay.
He has settled back in well. His room was all cosy & warm, water all in place for his return.
Thank you all again. You are a great bunch who do an amazing Job of caring from the heart. I will sleep well knowing he's back in your care.

My sister has been a resident in the Churchill Unit at Gilmerton Care Home for now the past 3 years and our family's experience has been outstanding. Every family member who visits very consistently, says now highly they would recommend the care provided here.The staff are exceptionally kind, professional,

The environment is always clean and well maintained and the warmth, respect and compassion is shown to both residents and families, is truly commendable. I would confidently recommend Gilmerton Care Home to anyone seeking excellent care.

My mum has lived in Cumbrae Lodge for just over a year. The unit set up is good for someone with dementia. Care home staff, and particularly staff on the unit, have been excellent. The home has fully met our expectations and my mum is significantly happier and more relaxed than she had been before moving
in.

The care he received in Guthrie House was, truly, outstanding. The staff genuinely cared. They took an interest in him, remembered
things about him, and us - our names and relationships. They brushed crumbs off his lap and tidied his hair. They sat with him and listened, and were patient and kind when he could be challenging or angry. They went on excursions, and flagged if they had concerns about his health.
When he declined further, they gave us space and privacy to be with him - offered us food, cups of tea, and hugs. When he passed away, he was cared for with respect, love and care. They recommended a Funeral Director with whom we had an amazing experience. Some of the staff came to his funeral.
Thanking them all for making a truly traumatic and heartbreaking period of our lives so much more bearable.

Dad moved into the care home in October 2025, it took about a month to settle in properly and he is starting to enjoy his new home. He is very happy with the services provided, i.e. staff are all nice. His room is lovely, plenty of activities to get involved in. The food is superb, everything is homemade,
etc. Us as a family could not be happier. Gilmerton Care Home as a full package is superb and gives us peace of mind he's getting well looked after from start to finish. This gives us great peace of mind. Thanks to you all.

My wife is 79 years old and she has dementia. Eight months after leaving home she was transferred to Gilmerton Care Home (G.H.C) I am in my mid eighties but I have managed to visit her almost daily. I think that the attitude and competence of the staff is, by far, the most important factor and, here,
G.C.H is superb. Without exception they have been patient and caring for an eccentric, and often confused and cantankerous old lady. After just a few weeks my wife looks the picture of health. She tells me she likes the staff and that they are kind to her. I can see that she is clean and does not have B.O. She is difficult to feed but they manage. I worried about her long term care. You hear such awful tales but I am very pleased with G.C.H and what they do for her.
Reply from Susan Macdonald, Regional Director at Gilmerton Care HomeThank you very much for your kind review. At Gilmerton Care Home the staff strive to care with compassion and understanding and I will share your kind words with the team

Review of
Gilmerton Neurological Care Centre

It's been nearly 4 months since my partner was admitted to Gilmerton Neurological Centre. He has came on very well in the time he has been there. ALL staff are great with him and understand that he is younger and may not be as interested in all the activities but they like to keep him involved. I have
every hope that they will manage to get him to a place where he will be able to come home. I just hope they have the mini bus back soon so there was more outside therapies. Although that hasn't stopped them taking them on little outings and out over the festive period.
Reply from Catherine Forrest-Smith, Deputy Manager at Gilmerton Neurological Care CentreThank you for your feedback. We are very happy to work with you and your family to get your loved one in a place where he can return home with his family, hopefully his rehabilitation keeps progressing to the level of expectations

Mum has only been in Cumbrae Lodge for 4 weeks from a long stay in hospital, but what a difference they have made ! From bed bound + completely dependant, mum is up in day room every day, having walked with support + showing a massive increase in independant eating+ drinking. Staff have shown mum
+ myself such kindness, + given me great confidence in their care in the way they have quickly picked up on mums needs + habits, ( mum is mostly non verbal) .
Reply from Lee gove, Home Manager at Cumbrae Lodge Care HomeCan i take this opportunity to thank you for your amazing review.
