Blackfaulds House Nursing Home

My mum has lived at Blackfaulds for over 2 years now I cannot praise all the staff enough for all that they do, we are always made to feel very welcome when we visit. The home has a lovely homely setting and the gardens are beautifully presented and well looked after. Mum enjoys the food options and there is always cups of tea and cake on hand. They have good relations with the local school who often come to visit/entertain the residents and they invited us to watch their nativity dress rehearsal which was great fun. They often have singers in entertaining the residents and in the better weather they enjoy days out away from the home as well. Blackfaulds is an all round great home which has given us peace of mind that our mum is being well looked after and that she is safe.

Fantastic team

We are absolutely delighted with the superb level of care my papa is receiving at Blackfaulds. The difference in his wellbeing compared to other homes he has previously been in is remarkable. He is visibly much better cared for, far more comfortable, and happier.

The staff show real warmth, professionalism, and attention to detail, and it's clear they truly value the people they look after. Knowing he is in safe and caring hands gives our family peace of mind. We are so grateful to everyone at Blackfaulds for the outstanding support they provide.

My uncle has recently moved to blackfaulds and has settled in great . The staff are all really friendly and welcoming and I love when you go into the sitting rooms the staff are interacting with the patients - ie playing games - singing - reading etc etc it's lovely to see . I think it's a great wee home and the guys there are doing a grand job . Well done Team Blackfaulds

Absolutely brilliant care home

The care that the residents receive in Blackfaulds Nursing Home is second to none. the staff are all lovely and friendly and for us it's just like having an extended family. There is a lovely atmosphere in the home and the residents are well taken care of. There is always plenty of activities and entertainment to keep the residents amused and the food looks and smells amazing.. I would have no hesitation in recommending this care home to anyone looking for somewhere for their loved ones.

Can't thank the staff enough for the great care they give.

My Pupa has recently became a resident of Blackfaulds Nursing Home. He is always presentable, clean and happy when we visit every week. The staff are so friendly and very supportive and helpful to all the residents. They go above and beyond by having celebrations and always keeping the residents happy and occupied. They also have live music occasionally for the residents, which is nice to them participating in dancing and enjoying themselves, and the staff join in also. There is always something fun for the residents to do. Me and my family appreciate everything they do, so kind and caring! The care home overall is always clean, never had any issues at all, and the meals always look and smell amazing. We are so thankful to the team at Blackfaulds, such a great place.

There is always lots of a activities for the residents and we are always kept informed of any up and coming family events .

Thank you to all at Blackfaulds for all that you do.

We were especially delighted with the level of effort in love shown during my gran's birthday where they did go over and above to make it special.

Staff go way beyond the care of residents and are always happy and caring. Great to see my brother singing along with songs of his era and more. There are plenty of outings and entertainment indoors.

Keep doing what you do.

Thank you all the staff for everything you do for my friend and other residents.

The activity programme is excellent and is tailored to meet the needs of all residents with varying levels of capabilities. They organise day trips to local attractions and there's an excellent programme of exchange visits to and from the village school. The children provide entertainment, pamper days and help with the gardening. There are also singers and musicians which the residents enjoy. They sing along and if they can have a wee dance. The staff are very professional, helpful, friendly and caring, ensuring the residents' needs are met at all times. They always keep Mum well looked after and try to keep her spirits up which can sometimes be a challenge. She's recently been very ill but with the care she's been given here, she's now back on track. The staff quickly realise when she is not quite herself, needs extra attention or geeing up. They have been supportive towards the family and we can't thank them enough.

Mum is well looked after. She was ill and still not herself. Due to the persistence of the staff, they discovered a deficiency in vitamin D which made all the difference. She is now back to her old self. There are lots of entertainment for them. They have parties throughout the year bringing residents, families and staff together. It is like an extended family.

My brother has now resided in Blackfaulds House Nursing Home for nine months, during which time he has received excellent care. Staff are diligent, patient and extremely caring at all times. Visitors are made welcome at all times and kept abreast of the excellent programme of activities designed to keep residents active, entertained and happy. I have the highest respect for everything that goes on in Blackfaulds. Thank you.

My dad who sadly passed away in April had been living here since September my mum was already here since January 2021. Blackfaulds is bar none the best nursing home. My mum and dad had the very best care they could have wished for and the love and respect the staff show to all residents is unsurpassed. It is a true team and genuine work-family atmosphere. I could never recommend this wee home highly enough and will always be grateful for my mum and dad's happy days there.

My grandmother has dementia and has been living at Blackfaulds for 3.5 years now. She is cared for with dignity, love and respect and this has been demonstrated even more so with the way the team have handled her end-of-life care. As a family, we have been embraced by the Blackfaulds community with compassion, especially during the difficulties that come with end-of-life care. On a day-to-day basis, the atmosphere at the home is jolly. There’s a great variety and quality of food for residents and the cleanliness is impeccable. A lot of effort goes into planning a range of fun activities throughout the year, which family members are encouraged to participate in and this enhances the feeling of community.

Both my mother and good friend have been at Blackfaulds House Nursing Home in the past and now my husband, who has Alzheimer’s. I was so pleased that a room became available for my husband. I know that he is being cared for very well. All the staff are brilliant, so friendly and caring. The family and I are always kept informed of any issues. The social media group keeps us up to date with activities etc. and it is lovely to see the residents enjoying themselves. My husband has put on weight since he arrived and looks so much happier. Thank you to all at Blackfaulds. I would definitely recommend you.
