Overall Experience

My father came to Erskine Care Centre for the last few days of his life and it was perfect. I would like to particularly share my appreciation of a certain staff member on floor two, who from when I arrived at 11 pm provided a mattress and food, to her outstanding presence and kindness and her ability to manage a tricky situation.

Reply from Fran Donno, Customer Service Adviser at Erskine Hall Care Home

Thank you for your kind words. We are glad to help you and your family through such a difficult time and we are so pleased that you had such a positive experience with Erskine Hall. We hope Erskine Hall Care Home did everything possible to make the transition as easy as possible. Hopefully, you will go away from this feeling like your loved one received the best possible care.

Review from Michelle B (Daughter of Resident) published on 2 April 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Dad was sent to Erskine Care Home from hospital on initially a temporary basis until we found him a long-term home. We have since decided for him to stay at Erskine as a long-term resident as the care received there is second to none. In particular, there are 3 members of staff that are absolutely lovely and a credit to the home. The manager and several other members of staff were all so welcoming and cheerful and gave me the comfort that Dad is being looked after. Their warm and welcoming personas made the choice very easy and I would highly recommend this home to anyone.

Reply from Fran Donno, Customer Service Adviser at Erskine Hall Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review. We are very happy to hear you can feel at ease with your dad in our care and we are happy to hear you feel like a part of our Erskine Hall family. It is always nice to hear from family members feeling like their loved one is cared for and looked after. Hopefully, you will go away from this feeling like your loved one received the best possible care.

Overall Experience
The bedrooms were light and well-appointed, especially the shower rooms. The atmosphere in the home was friendly and relaxed but always professional. The food was nutritious and plentiful with sufficient variety. The staff were caring and attentive.

The activities were wide-ranging from musical acts to quizzes and everyone regardless of ability was included creating a pleasant event.

Review from F C (Sister of Resident) published on 21 February 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My sister has recently stayed at Erskine Hall for respite following surgery. From pre-admission to discharge, she, and us as a very concerned family, were treated with the utmost respect and kindness. Communication with my sister and with us was timely and informative helping to reduce anxiety at a very worrying time. All of the staff appeared to focus on her as an individual, recognising and managing her complex needs. The staff all demonstrated a team approach and were calm and resident-focused. All the facilities were clean and well-maintained which meant a comfortable stay.

Overall Experience

My dear mother spent the final few months of her life at Erskine Hall at the end of 2023. I recommend the home as excellent. The care provided was high quality, professional and above all showed a genuine interest in Mum’s personal situation. She enjoyed the food and entertainment that was provided, and she clearly felt very well looked after. Without exception the staff were excellent.

Overall Experience
My mother moved into Erskine Hall as she is no longer able to live independently.
With the help and care of the staff, she adjusted well to her new environment.
My mother has told me she feels safe and all her needs are met.
The staff keep us up to date with any changes to her health, and we are confident she is well cared for.
The environment at Erskine Hall is calming and restful. My mother’s room is always clean and smells lovely. Her food looks appetising and the staff caring for her are kind and attentive.

My father visits my mother daily and the staff are kind and caring towards him too, and always make him a cup of tea!

Review from A P (Son of Resident) published on 6 November 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother was a resident at Erskine Hall for 18 months until her recent passing.
The home felt like just the right place for her on our initial visit and I had no hesitation in placing her here. On my regular visits, the staff were always very helpful and caring and did not seem overstretched. As my mum's condition deteriorated, they paid close attention to her medical needs and kept me informed. The food always appeared tasty and there were organised activities. They seem to have all the equipment needed to keep residents comfortable and mobile. I would recommend this care home.

Thank you Erskine Hall.

Overall Experience

Extremely well-run home and very easy to deal with any problems. The staff are friendly and very caring. The standard of cleanliness is very high and there is always a pleasant smell. Because my mother-in-law is so well taken of it makes the family confident that she will be taken care of at all times and in an emergency. Very good activities.

Overall Experience
After a couple of months looking for best place for my dad, we find Erskine Hall Care Home. The manager has helped me a lot, how to talk with hospital (thank you). First month was very difficult for us, and for the staff as Dad was very sad. But now, Dad is so happy, we are happy too. The Erskine home is a home-from-home. Clean, welcome, warm.
The nurses and carers are amazing.

Activity lady, nothing is too much for her, she is never out of ideas, Dad adores her. Food is like 5-star hotel. All the equipment, social spaces, garden is in very high standard.

Review from Janet B (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 September 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother was a resident at Erskine Hall from April to August 2023. She moved in after a couple of spells in hospital. She felt safe and happy here. She was treated with respect and dignity by all staff, housekeepers, carers and nurses. Although my mum was not able to join in the activities, the list of things to do looked good. She enjoyed the carer's company. Her room offered a view of green trees and she enjoyed watching the television. The food on offer was varied and plenty of choice. Visiting could be anytime and all staff were welcoming.

Value for money is a difficult one as all care is expensive but we were happy to pay for the care my mum received here.

Review from Jeanette K (Daughter of Resident) published on 29 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mum moved into Erskine Hall in March 2023, after the sad passing of her beloved husband. From the first time we viewed the scheme, we felt welcome and at home. All the staff are friendly, enthusiastic and very caring. My mum has a lovely large room, which we have personalised for her, and she has settled very well. She has made friends and joins in with the activities, including the Hawaiian-themed party this week to celebrate the home's 'good' rating with the CQC, which they thoroughly deserve. The gardens are stunning and well kept and the outside terrace, on the first floor, is a favourite meeting place, especially in the recent sunny weather. My mum tells me that the meals are very nice and there is a good choice. She has her hair done in the salon and her nails done every week. Thank you Erskine Hall!

My dad spent the last month of his life in Erskine Hall. The care he received was exceptional. The staff were always kind and professional, most importantly to my dad but also to our family who were visiting. The food was excellent. I would like to thank all the staff for their genuine kindness and consideration during what was a very hard time.

We have been very impressed with the care given. My mother has become poorly, and the staff have cared for her beautifully, including accompanying her to the hospital overnight.
Special praise to a number of staff members, who have kept in touch with us through a difficult time and have always been sensitive and caring.

We have had contact with other care homes over the last few months - this has been our best experience by far.
