Dalkeith Residential Care Home

My Mother became a resident following a protracted period in hospital. She had restricted mobility and was suffering from the onset of dementia. Dalkeith has a warm, friendly and caring environment. The staff were all highly capable and professional in caring for him. Unfortunately, my mother deteriorated and this period was when the total dedication to providing a compassionate, loving and comfortable level of care came to the fore. Mum loved the atmosphere created by the staff, struck up new friendships and enjoyed the activities provided by the care home.

It is so lovely seeing Dad settling in so well.

First class nursing home with caring nursery staff. A very nice and friendly home where I am happy for my mother to stay and I know she is safe.

Two members of staff have really gone out of their way to make my mum as comfortable and a "home from home". After a recent spell in hospital we were relieved that mum returned to Dalkeith and regained her well being to a faster degree than in any other environment. I believe it was down to the familiarity and expertise of all the wonderful staff and management. I would not hesitate in recommending Dalkeith as a residential home for those making sensitive and emotional decisions ref their family.

We had to move my mother in October 2014 at short notice, we expected problems as she is 88 years old. But the staff and management at her new home were excellent, she was welcomed with open arms, made new friends over night and seems better now than every. All this we feel was down to the management and staff at the home, who do such an excellent job for all the people in their care.
