I cannot praise all the staff enough. I visit a friend in a nearby care home, which does not compare favourably! Either in food or activities, both of which are extremely important.

Reply from Cheryl Henderson, Marketing Manager at Chamberlain Road Nursing Home

We would agree that food and activities are really important parts of day to day life for us all, so feel strongly that it is important to get these right for those who live at Chamberlain and Cluny Lodge.We will make sure all the staff get to read your lovely comment about them too - we are fortunate to have such great staff!

We are extremely grateful for the extraordinary care our relative received at Cluny Lodge Care Home. Every member of the team showed immense compassion, patience and professionalism - qualities that never wavered, even on the most challenging days. They took the time to get to know her story, habits,
likes and dislikes. The environment was always calm, clean, and welcoming. The rooms felt like home, and the food was of a fantastic quality and great choices. The activity programme (shared with us by email each week) was diverse and enjoyable. We had regular updates on her well-being. The medical care was exceptional, along with the exceptional emotional support to the resident, friends and family.

Reply from Cheryl Henderson, Marketing Manager at Cluny Lodge

We are so pleased your relative and you feel we did get to know them, this is such an important part of our work and hopefully makes people realise that they are special and unique individuals.

From my first meeting with the manager, I felt assured that Mum would be valued and well cared for. It was clear that this home was about 'life'. Although mum was very low when she arrived, she responded to stimulation, attended activities and joined others in the beautiful dining room for meals. Her
room was always clean and bright, staff were attentive and treated her with dignity and respect. A special wheelchair was provided when her own stopped being suitable. I appreciated that the staff passed on happy stories of Mum when we visited. At the end, staff were on hand making sure she was comfortable, pain-free and passed peacefully. We were always welcome and couldn't have asked for better care.

My mum moved into Cluny Lodge in April 2023 and was there for 2 years. The care and treatment she received the entire time she was there was first class especially during the last 2 months when she needed a lot more help. The staff were so kind, helpful and professional and treated my mum with dignity
and respect. I was so lucky to get mum a place at Cluny (I knew it had a great reputation even before she moved in) and it gave her 2 more years of good quality life and happy memories. I will always be eternally grateful to the whole team at Cluny for this.

My father moved into Cluny Lodge in January 2024. What a wonderful place, with amazing staff. He is so lucky to have moved there, and it has taken so much worry from me as well. Everyone in our family and friends too who have visited have commented on how impressed they are with Cluny, and especially
with the staff.
They treat everyone with respect and I really am so grateful for the care they give my father every day.

from Kenneth W (Son of Resident) published on 18 December 2024

My mother moved from home to Cluny Lodge early in 2022. She had a non severe but progressive dementia. The care and treatment she received at Cluny Lodge was exceptional from start to finish. All aspects of maintenance and care are first class. Her room was beautifully decorated, spacious and always
spotlessly clean. The standard of medical and general care was gentle and thorough. I honestly cannot think of a single time when I felt anything wasn't dealt with perfectly. They staff were proactive in including the family if they had any concerns and they supported us sensitively when my mother finally left us on her 95th birthday.

I have been extremely impressed with the exceptional care that my mother receives in this home. The staff and management are extremely professional, friendly and caring. My mother has settled easily and often admires her surroundings. The staff are excellent at keeping my mother comfortable and go
out of their way to try to meet her every need whether it is trying out equipment, adjusting her diet or medication. The new namaste sessions which involves massages, gentle music and calming scents have been very beneficial for my mother. They employ their own nutritionists and physiotherapists which means these needs are easily met in-house. There is always different staff popping in for a friendly chat or just making sure she is ok. The manager is very open and friendly and is very proactive at looking for any possible improvements. She is very visible within the home and knows each resident. I am kept very well informed about my mother's health and feel we are all part of one big family.

Reply from Cheryl Henderson, Marketing Manager at Cluny Lodge

We are so pleased that your experience has been so positive. We are keen to hear from people involved in the service we provide, to know how else we can develop. One of these ways has been Namaste Care, so we are delighted to hear these have been beneficial too.

from Guy S (Son of Resident) published on 10 December 2024

My father suffered 2 strokes in late 2020, and after he was discharged from hospital in Edinburgh we had to find a care home at short notice. That turned out to be Cluny Lodge and how lucky were we that it was!
From Day 1, the level of care, attention and hospitality my father received was first rate.
That
despite dad arriving in February 2021 when COVID was in full swing.
Sadly, dad passed away after a short illness in September this year. 7-8 staff attended dad's funeral which says a lot. He had been resident in Cluny for 3 and a half years.
It's hard to single out anybody but special mentions are due to the Unit Manager; Staff Nurses; and 4 other staff members in particular. Also the Entertainment Team; the minibus driver; and a staff member on reception; - and all the Cluny Kitchen staff (dad loved his food!).
All under the watchful eye of the inimitable, the Group Care Home Manager.
Thank you for everything from all the family.

We moved our 95 year old mother to live in Chamberlain Road Nursing Home in July 2024. She lives with advanced dementia but is physically active. Prior to this, she lived at home with 24 hour care. The manager is excellent and demands excellence from all her staff. She listened to what our mum would
want for her room. The staff are all friendly and caring and our mum has thrived in their care. They were patient when she kept trying to leave at first and staff often take her out for walks. I really could not rate the home and staff highly enough.

Selecting a care home for my mother was one of the hardest decisions we have ever made. From the very start the manager and the entire team at Chamberlain Road Nursing Home showed empathy, care and compassion with, genuinely, my mother's best interests at the very heart of their thinking. This has continued
throughout. My mother is now settling in a lovely, clean, warm and bright ensuite room and really looks forward to three great meals a day having previously not had much of an appetite. She feels safe and secure and happy that her wishes are respected. We have found the management team always on hand to discuss any issues which arise from time to time and continue to proactively support my mother's transition to a care home setting encouraging positive social interactions through the varied group activities, 1:1 care plan and family liaison. Our thanks to the team for, in our experience, all their continued first-class care.

I had to find a care home for my mum's school friend three years ago after she had a mild stroke which meant she couldn't manage on her own at home any more. She always wanted to die of a heart attack on her beloved golf course and avoid ever having to live in a home, but a stroke caught up with her
before that happened. I still can't believe how lucky I was to find her a room in Cluny Lodge Nursing Home.
From the day she moved in to Cluny Lodge, every member of staff took time to get to know her well and treated her with dignity, respect and above all, care of the highest quality. She was always very happy living there and when the time came for end of life care the staff were absolutely fantastic.
Thank you all so much for looking after a dear old lady so very well.

My Dad was a resident in Cluny Lodge Care Home for nearly 3 years until 2012 and my Mum for over 1 year until 2024. Both were looked after exceptionally well and so were my family and me. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cluny Lodge to anyone needing or having relatives needing extra care.
I would find it very difficult to find anywhere better than Cluny Lodge.

My Dad came to Cluny Lodge in January for restbite as my Mum was unwell.
We were as a family worried my Dad would not adjust to being in a care home!
However, to our surprise, he loves it and is still there 6 months on and very settled.
The nurses and staff are fantastic with my Dad and he is enjoying
all the attention! There are lots of activities to keep his mind busy and again the staff are so attentive to all the residents individually.
My Dad loves music so they encourage him to play his mouth organ, he loves to sing and has watched the nurses and carers all sing along with him.
It's a home from home and just like one big family.
The staff are all amazing and with my Mum too who visits most days.
The cleanliness and hygiene are impeccable.
Can't praise Cluny Lodge high enough its just excellent.

My mother was in Chamberlayne Road nursing home for 18 months until she died in April 2024. She was very reluctant to go there and was at times quite difficult, but the staff, without exception looked after her extremely well and with respect, and grew to love her despite her idiosyncrasies! An example
of the care which touched me very much was that they recognised that she had always enjoyed cooking and collecting recipes. She would discuss the meals with the chef, and he invited her to “help” in the kitchen for a day only 2 weeks before she died. The manager sent us a photo of her that day, looking happier than she had looked for some years. The staff was very kind also to us, her family, and we always felt the respectful love that they gave my mum. She could not have been anywhere better.

My Mum passed away two weeks ago after spending her last 10 months in Chamberlian.
From day one she participated in almost all of the activities which she loved. She looked forward to all her meals, varied and delicious. Her room was always cosy and clean and she felt happy and secure there. The staff
were not only very caring to her but also to myself, very much a home from home. I cannot fault any of the management or staff, they were so kind right to the very end. Thank you all so very much.
