Inchinnan Care Home

He is mixing well with staff and other residents. I was so pleased with Littleinch that I requested his stay be made permanent. I was very happy when this was accepted. I would recommend Littleinch to anyone who is looking to place a loved one in a care home.

My mother was moved to Inchinnan Care Home on the 25th January from sheltered housing due to her decreased condition, on arrival at Inchinnan we were met with two members of staff who were very friendly and made my mum feel at ease very quickly. This also made myself and my wife feel a lot better too, while one of the staff took my mum's details another staff member spoke to my mum and made her feel welcomed and eased her fears about moving to a new home. While I can't really comment much more about the home itself due to current circumstances what I can say is on first impression this is a very well run home with caring staff and I feel my mum will be very happy here.

It's hard to give an honest opinion regarding ratings, but I can only praise all the staff for their excellent efforts to keep the home running under extremely difficult circumstances. I've been able to speak to my mum by mobile phone and on a video call, and have also watched recordings on social media. She looks and sounds very happy in her new surroundings, which is down to the care and attention she gets from the staff. When things return to normal, I would be happy to complete the full survey. In the meantime; please take this as a 10/10 from me.

My sister-in-law was in Littleinch for almost six years. She was well looked after and in some cases loved by some of the workers in the home.

The staff were so helpful. They helped my husband settle in and looked after me. The place is so clean and tidy, the room is lovely and all the staff are so caring. When I went to visit, it just felt like coming home, that's why we picked it. Out of all the homes we had seen, this was truly the best.

Both my mother and uncle have been a resident in Littleinch Care Home. Sadly my mother passed away in April 2019. Her care was without fault during her last weeks she was cared for with compassion and respect. My uncle has been in Littleinch for over 2 years now and his care is also without fault lovely calm caring staff who work well as a team.

My mum was in the home for 4 years, until December 2019. One of the first things the staff did when my mum moved in was to organise her 90th birthday party to make it special. Littleinch has been a second home to my mum and the staff were more like friends. The home is safe, welcoming and has a pleasant garden including a pond with koi carp. During my mum's final days in the home, the staff and nurses could not have been more kind, to the extent of taking breaks in my mum's room so she had company while ill. I would like to thank the staff and management for the caring service they provided.

My mother spent just over a year at Littleinch, and the care she received there was exceptional. Having become fairly reclusive in her later years and very reluctant to go into full-time care until her dementia made this unavoidable, Mum became more engaged, sociable and happy in a friendly, stimulating environment she quickly adapted to. She made new friends, rediscovered her love of singing along with Scottish music and was made to feel at home. Her medical care was first rate, the frequent minor infections which had resulted in several hospital admissions while living at home, being prevented or dealt with by the nursing staff before they became an issue. The staff's supportive approach to the family made a difficult time much easier for us as well as Mum, and the room in which she spent her last year was bright and homely. In her 93rd year, Mum sadly passed away, but the palliative care she received in her last days was respectful and of the highest standard. Thank you Littleinch!

Quiet rural location. Purpose built care home with full height windows allowing residents to see the grounds, trees etc. Friendly, caring staff who engage with the residents. Proactive medical care attending to problems as they arise. Communications between Littleinch Care Home are excellent and I have complete trust that they will contact me immediately should there be a problem. Choosing a care home was a difficult decision. Faced with the decision one year on, we would select Littleinch Care Home without hesitation.

I have complete confidence that my wife is receiving a very high standard of care. All staff including management are knowledgeable and very caring. My wife has been a resident for three years and I have had no cause for concern. Her medical needs are well understood and met. I can always contact someone if I need to. The staff are welcoming and I feel part of a community when I visit. The ongoing improvements to the building are making the home brighter and more interesting. I attend regular meetings with staff and feel that I am listened to and I am also well informed. I would recommend the home without hesitation or reservation.

My brother had just a short time in the home before he died. I felt he could not have had better care. He was treated with care and dignity. All his needs were met when needed. Very happy with the home.

I have found the care, patience and respect of the staff towards residents of an extremely high standard, giving me complete peace of mind. I have seen occasions where my patience would have been tried but gentle firmness with humour seems to do the trick. This applies across the board be it dining, medical, cleaning or caring staff watched over by a dedicated management team.

Mum was diagnosed with vascular dementia 15 years ago, after a stroke. The hospital's prognosis was for recurrences until death. With nothing possible medically, we sought a suitable care home. Littleinch seemed ideal having a pleasant location, attentive, friendly staff, well organised, with the residents' well-being foremost.

On her discharge, we expected mum's end anytime. Once in Littleinch, she was carefully nursed. She improved physically, recovering somewhat from the stroke.

The care gave her another 11 years. As predicted, her condition declined slowly. There were more mild strokes, all acted on immediately. Eventually, she died peacefully with no distress or discomfort, the staff being particularly attentive.

Littleinch was excellent re communication, and administrative matters, promptly informing of developments. Staff were friendly, helpful, professional, and were like Mum's "second family". We appreciate all their devotion, including their attendance at her funeral.

My dad was in a bad way before coming to Littleinch, having gone downhill rapidly after being admitted to A & E but with the care given to him after entering Littleinch he pulled round and began to thrive. I found the home to be a cosy and cheerful place with caring staff. Everyone was treated with dignity and respect. The entertainment provided, which I witnessed on visits, was very uplifting and generated a real feel good factor for users and their families, unfortunately dad, had Alzheimer's and it is a progressive cruel disease with no cure, but the staff did all they could possibly do for him in the sixteen months he was there until he passed away aged 96 in July. I have lovely memories of him sitting in the peaceful courtyard.

Staff always informed us of any issues with his health or any falls. He was always well dressed, had his hair cut regularly and saw out his last years with dignity. Staff were always very helpful and friendly and always pleased to see us when we visited. Staff were brilliant at the end and made sure he was peaceful and given the best attention possible.

This is a peaceful, relaxing care home. The staff are very attentive and attend to all my mother's needs. She appears to be settling well now after a shaky start and that is all due to her care and attention received.

More than 50 years married my wife had to enter long time care. Supported by my family it was decided Littleinch Care Home would provide her care. That was 4 years past and I would say to families making this decision today, if every care home was like Littleinch Care Home, "The care inspectorate" could be made redundant. Not just carers at Sharp End, the management and administrators. It is not unusual to see house keepers, laundry staff etc take a resident by the hand caringly, considerate and respectful to all residents in their daily living.

My experience is that the home is well run with management and staff genuinely trying to do their best for all the residents and their families. Therefore I am happy with the overall situation.
