My friend has been in Craighead for nearly two years and I have yet to find fault with the place. Obviously there are small issues with things like laundry being mixed up but as long as she's dressed this is nothing. The way staff are with her is exceptional as she can be very difficult at times.

As soon as you walk into Craighead it is welcoming. And it continues as you walk to the place my mum is. Walls are bright with pics/info to look at. Totally different to some other care homes she was in for respite. This is welcoming and helps let you settle before meeting her, as often I'm not sure how shes going to be.
