Sadly Mum died 4 weeks ago and I will always be grateful to Cluny staff for their dedication to making this so dignified and peaceful and enabling her to die there and not be transferred to hospital. The care shown to Mum and us was exceptional and will never be forgotten.
I would not hesitate to recommend Cluny Lodge as a nursing home of choice.

The Review Score of 10 (9.969) out of 10 for Cluny Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.969 for Cluny Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (254 Excellents x 5) + (6 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 261 Ratings = 4.969
b) 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Cluny Lodge is based on 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
ii) 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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: Unit Manager
Joined: 2013
I have worked for Elder Homes for just over 10 years and started as a newly qualified nurse in the Balmoral suite. Over the years I have worked my way up to unit manager and now work in the Argyll Unit. I studied adult nursing and found my passion working with older adults. In my free time I enjoy both watching and attending rugby matches and following Scotland at Murrayfield. I am hoping to do the Lions tour of New Zealand in 2029. I have grand plans to do a world cruise when I retire. I enjoy movies and going to the cinema. I live with my partner, and we have a crazy cat called Luna. My nieces and nephews mean the world to me, and I love being the aunty who gets to spoil them with sugar and toys.

Joined: 2021
As General Manager I have a great opportunity to work with all the different teams at Elder Homes, bringing previous experience of process improvements and supporting the Digital Journey all care homes now must take. Moving into the care sector has been a very rewarding experience and one I continue to look forward to for many more years.
Away from work I love spending time with my wife, 3 kids and dog.
Job Title: Care Home Manager
Joined: 2003
With a career spanning over two decades at Elder Homes, I have cultivated a diverse skill set and extensive knowledge in the realm of senior care management.

As the Group Care Home Manager, I am deeply committed to upholding the highest standards of care and support, fostering a homely and welcoming environment for residents. Leveraging my wealth of experience, I lead a dedicated team to ensure an unparalleled level of service that goes beyond expectations.
Beyond the professional sphere, I enjoy reading, I am a passionate traveller, and cherish moments spent with loved ones. These personal pursuits enrich my life and contribute to a holistic perspective that I bring to my role as a caretaker and manager.

Job Title: Education and dementia co-ordinator
Joined: 2011
Part of my role is to support staff from their induction and throughout their progress within Elder Homes. This includes developing and delivering relevant training around all subjects, with a particular focus on dementia and end of life care. It is a privilege to watch staff grow in knowledge and confidence and know that this will help continue to deliver the best quality care to those we support. Within my role I also support family members and students, during their time connected to Elder Homes.
Growing up I always wanted to be a nurse or a teacher – I now get to do both! I trained as a nurse in the West Midlands, a long time ago, then moved up to Edinburgh in 1992, where I ‘fell into’ care home nursing but realised I loved it.
We recently moved out of Edinburgh and I am loving exploring Midlothian with my 2 year old dog, Bonnie
