Muirfield, built in 2017 and completed to an exceptional standard, is fully compliant with current best practice. There are 60 beautiful single rooms and full wet floor shower room en-suites including finishes of Porcelanosa ceramic tiling and underfloor heating.

Residents choose between standard sized rooms or larger premium and deluxe rooms offering enhanced finishes. Each bedroom has telephone and Internet access, a wall-mounted TV and a nurse call system, for prompt assistance. There is also a choice of comfortable open plan lounges with widescreen TV, and dining areas. The charming garden is always a popular place to sit with a cup of tea, or for gardening activities when weather permits.

Events and activities are hugely enjoyed at Muirfield and the dedicated team, full calendar and the availability of their own minibus ensures that the level of participation is high. Residents also enjoy the Art Deco Ballroom Parquet dancefloor. This is a beautiful space at the top of the nursing home for residents to enjoy music, dancing and socialising.

An excellent Chef and kitchen team offer nutritionally-balanced, freshly prepared meals. The menu changes on a four-weekly cycle and they try to accommodate different tastes and diets as far as possible. Residents choose where to eat. Some people like the privacy of their own room, whilst others enjoy eating together in the dining room.

Review from A M (Wife of Resident) published on 6 April 2020 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband has been a resident at Muirfield Care Home for six weeks now and feels happy and settled there. All the staff is so kind, caring and helpful. Nothing is too much trouble. The accommodation is well planned and spacious and there is a wide range of activities and outings available. His room
is very comfortable and I feel so relaxed there. He really enjoys his meals and there is always a good choice. When the better weather comes, he is looking forward to spending time in the attractive gardens. From the moment I first went into Muirfield, I was struck by the warm and friendly atmosphere. A very happy nursing home.
Reply from Julie Kennedy, Marketing Manager at MuirfieldThank you very much for your feedback. We are so delighted that you feel your husband has settled well and is being very well looked after. It is so pleasing to know that your husband enjoys his meals and the facilities available. Let's hope too that there is some nice weather soon.

Lovely welcoming home. Staff take good care of my mum and I know she is safe and very happy there. She is encouraged to make her own decisions regarding her meals choices and participation in activities.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has been a resident at Muirfield for over two years. Having visited Mum on a regular basis, I have found the general atmosphere to be positive and welcoming. The warmth of all the staff is genuine, both in person and on the phone. Their care of Mum is sensitive, patient and kind. The facilities
are excellent with a beautiful garden. Rooms are light and bright and kept spotlessly clean. The activities staff provide an excellent programme of activities which caters for all residents. Any concerns/questions are addressed in an understanding, efficient manner.
Reply from Julie Kennedy, Marketing Manager at MuirfieldThank you very much for completing feedback. We really appreciate you taking the time to let us know about the care that your mum has received over the last two years and this is very pleasing as we aim to offer a level of care that is individual and meets these high standards.

I couldn't rate the care home highly enough. The staff are excellent, caring and professional. As a visitor, I am greeted with a smile, and the staff listen to any questions I may have, they listen to me for any concerns and requests I may have.

Review from Martin G (Guardian of Resident) published on 31 October 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am the guardian of my cousin, who has been a resident since 2017. I visit about twice a week. I can say that I have always been highly impressed by the professionalism and friendliness of every member of staff, whether administrative or caregivers. The staff have an excellent rapport with the residents
and take a real interest in their welfare. This creates a happy well-adjusted environment, which is important for my cousin who has some learning difficulties. In addition to the welcoming atmosphere in Muirfield, there is also a great range of organised activities with a full programme each week. As with any fairly large group living situation, there have been very occasional areas that have had to be drawn to the attention of the staff, but these have been rectified or otherwise dealt with pleasantly and efficiently. The home is a very modern construction, and the facilities are superb and very well maintained. I am very happy that my cousin is well cared for.
Reply from Julie Kennedy, Marketing Manager at MuirfieldThank you very much for your feedback. We are so pleased that you feel your cousin is cared for in a happy and welcoming environment and that the staff are approachable and able to resolve any matters to your satisfaction.

Review from Jean H (Daughter of Resident) published on 26 April 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
For 14 years I was my mums main carer. It became impossible to provide the nursing care mum required. Muirfield nursing home kindly responded to an urgent request by the hospital at home team and social worker for emergency care. A small but adequate room was made available at short notice. Mum was
admitted on 4th March 16. Family members visited mum on a daily basis all were impressed by the standard of care provided and the friendly manner and consideration by all staff without exception. Sadly mum died on 28th March 16, having spent nearly 24 days there. I and my family would have no hesitation in recommending this nursing home as an example of how such establishments should be managed.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.658)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.658) out of 10 for Muirfield is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.783 for Muirfield is calculated as follows: ( (158 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 189 Ratings = 4.783
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.875 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Muirfield is based on 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 3.875
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 15 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
