My partner's grandmother is in Lothian House Care Home and is very settled and happy there, she has made lots of new friends and loves the staff, the entertainment and the food. We looked at other homes before we came to look at Lothian House Care Home. The rest were not a patch on this home. We are so happy and so is all the family :)
After being temporarily in another care home, Lothian was like a "breath of fresh air". Staff from domestic to management are friendly, very helpful and all go that 'extra mile' building confidence with residents, family and visitors.

After being temporarily in another care home, Lothian was like a "breath of fresh air". Staff from domestic to management are friendly, very helpful and all go that 'extra mile' building confidence with residents, family and visitors.
I would describe Lothian as being a 5* hotel for elderly residents. We can now sleep well as a family, knowing that our mother is well cared for and safe.
A big thank you to all the staff for the care and love you gave to my mam during the four years she was at the home. To say to was appreciated is a high understatement.

It was a lovely feeling knowing she was in such a loving environment with wonderful people looking after her. A huge heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you - I will never forget what you all did for her.
Outstanding, dignified care provided by all staff. The home has a lovely calm feel. My family are forever indebted to the staff for the wonderful care my other received. We wish we had found Lothian House sooner!!

On Friday March 11th 2016. My dear friend was taken into Lothian House after her doctor was unable to get any nurses to sit with her during the night. Social services tried for hours to find her somewhere and she arrived there about 7pm the care and support she received was excellent, my friend is 94 years old in September and has not been out of her flat whilst been poorly and was treated like they had known her for years, now she says if ever she has to go anywhere again could she go there.

The only downside for me is seating for visitors in the main lounge. I have had to sit on a stool (foot stool) on occasion as I need to be close to my sister to understand what she is saying. This is not a great problem for me but could be for some people.
Activities are excellent, lots going on, my sister enjoys joining in, listening to he organist, chair exercises and trips out in the mini bus. I think Lothian have a good team who care.
There are various lounges within Lothian House for residents and their relatives / visitors. We do encourage residents and relatives to have visiting time in the residents in own rooms as this enables a more private and quality time. Should visitors prefer to sit in the main lounge with their...
There are various lounges within Lothian House for residents and their relatives / visitors. We do encourage residents and relatives to have visiting time in the residents in own rooms as this enables a more private and quality time. Should visitors prefer to sit in the main lounge with their relative there are dining chairs available that can be taken into the main lounge. We do monitor the amount of visitors in the main lounge as our residents do enjoy watching the TV, and too many visitors can prevent the residents from viewing the TV.
A pleasant and inviting environment with courteous management and staff, a nice clean odourless place for residents.

A very big thank you for the dignified manner in which you provided care and support to our dear mother and nanna. The staff always showed compassion, particularly at the end of her life. Thank you also for the support you gave to the family while she was on the end of life pathway.
