As his wife I find the staff also treat myself & family as part of the caring team. This makes the whole atmosphere an extension of our family life. The Home is kept spotless & rooms deep cleaned regularly. The laundry service for clients clothes terrific all items tagged so returned to room. The food is excellent & always very varied. If the client not happy with what on menu that day. The chef can usually help to do something else. I would find it hard to understand how any family or client could find fault with this Home.
I would also say as someone who has worked as a manager in day care facility for the elderly & has on occasion visited most of care homes in East Lothian I find this one excellent.
I am happy with my relative care , a welcoming atmosphere in the home , staff is very kind and friendly to the residents .My auntie enjoys most activities within the home , especially bus trips . I would recommend it to anyone looking for a care home .

All staff are very welcoming & approachable. If our family have an issue it is resolved fairly quickly. The food is excellent from what I see & what my father in law tells me. Down side I feel the bedrooms & bathrooms need updated. Much brighter paint on walls & new bathroom facilities, they are...

Thank you for highlighting areas you feel we can improve on in Tranent Care Home. We acknowledge your concerns regarding the bedrooms and bathrooms and will update residents and their families as upgrades are planned. Any repairs needing to be undertaken in the meantime are addressed as they are identified by our colleagues. If visitors to the home identify areas of concern, we are very appreciative if these are highlighted so we can take action to address them. We want our residents to feel comfortable and at home while they are staying with us and are happy to decorate their bedrooms to their wishes. It is important to us that residents feel at home and have input into the environment they are living in. Residents’ needs are assessed on an ongoing basis, and any equipment identified as being needed for safety and comfort are purchased. Once again, we would encourage relatives and friends to speak with colleagues if they have any concerns. Resident safety and comfort are our priority. Activities are on offer 7 days a week in the home. Each resident is given an activity planner at the start of each month so they know what is happening in the home each day. There is also a copy on the noticeboard in each community. Our colleagues will be more than happy to provide a copy of the planner to friends and relatives if requested. All residents have a care plan in place detailing the types of activities they enjoy participating in and are encouraged to do so regularly. We are always open to suggestions and ideas for new activities that our residents may enjoy.
Warm welcoming staff who treat residents and family members as if they are one of their own. Facilities are very good and always clean albeit some updating of fixtures and fittings would really make it stand out.
Meals are second to none and I know Dad looks forward to these each day especially...

Meals are second to none and I know Dad looks forward to these each day especially as we look on enviously!
Location of home, and ample parking for visitors is perfect, and makes Dad still feel part of the local community.
Overall good in how the care home is run and how my mother is treated. Staff show a good level of training and dealing with residents. Staff are very approachable and nothing seems to be too much of a problem for them.

I am at the care home every day, visiting my wife. Each day is different of course. The staff are pleasant and helpful. They seem to enjoy their work under the conditions that they work in.

On arrival on October 18th 2022, he was given good support by the care staff. He settled fairly well, after two to three weeks I met with the manager to discuss two issues and she listened and suggested an alternative - the matter was done promptly.

My first experience of a nursing home and I was very impressed. My father needed intense care and was so well looked after by all levels of staff. His end of life comfort was wonderfully dealt with. A special mention to all the amazing laundry team who brought a ray of sunshine to every visit they made to his room. This home does a hard job really well and the staff make the place. A huge thank you to all involved in his care. You were excellent!
When I got in for the first time my dad's shoes were covered in food stains, and his TV was all splattered with juice; this is the first time I have come across an issue. Also, from day one, his toile never flushed right - still doesn't.

We are very sorry about your experience during your first visit, and it's good to have heard that you are now happy. I can also confirm the toilet is now fully functioning.

It was the hardest thing I have ever had to do, putting my dad, who has Alzheimer's, in the care of others. However, my experience with the care home has been excellent, and I can't thank them enough for the support they have provided my dad. They have a good understanding of his needs, and he seems settled now, which makes the whole experience easier for me. I can't thank them all enough.

While visiting the care home during the pandemic, the staff have been very helpful. The centre is clean and organised, and all members of staff I have met are very friendly. They have been very supportive during the death of one of my grandparents while the other still resides at the care home. They are a very caring well-staffed facility, which makes them go the extra mile.
I have only visited the care home indoors once so far, and I am happy with the service. Staff are friendly and kind, supportive in times when no visiting. Kept me informed about Mother's care.
