Lornebank Care Centre is a purpose-built nursing home nestled in the heart of Hamilton, South Lanarkshire, providing a welcoming and supportive environment for up to 74 residents. The centre offers comprehensive, person-centred care, including advanced and early-stage dementia support, general nursing care, and respite care stays. Each of the 74 single rooms is equipped with en-suite facilities, and residents are encouraged to personalise their private space.
The facility is spread across two floors with a lift and features five units, each with shared and private communal spaces. Social life is a priority, with a popular ground-floor café serving as a hub for residents and visitors. Lornebank is celebrated for its varied and high-quality activities program designed for personal fulfilment, cognitive stimulation, and emotional support. It is particularly proud of the purposeful lifestyle it offers residents living with dementia, who enjoy stimulating, meaningful activities and tasks.
Residents enjoy a diverse range of pursuits, including group activities, regular visits from entertainers, and meaningful one-to-one sessions tailored to individual preferences. The programme is particularly strong in engaging residents with dementia through reminiscence and sensory experiences.
The home also has a spacious, secure garden with seating, which residents are encouraged to use for relaxation and gardening. Lornebank is committed to promoting independence, dignity, and a sense of community for all. The home has recently undergone major management changes, with a completely new senior team brought in to lead improvements in staff training and clinical practice.

Lornebank is currently under a refurbishment programme and what they have done so far is looking good. Other areas are tired and will hopefully be upgraded too. There have been several changes in personnel (Management) which is not so good. Sometimes I feel they are maybe understaffed. The staff are friendly but I have felt at times they have gone on the defensive if concerns have been raised. Overall I think the care is satisfactory.

Although the facilities are slightly reduced due to renovations, the care provided by the staff is excellent. They are very attentive, taking the time to get know Mum and she is much better socialised than she was at home.

Overall Experience
Very friendly staff, always helpful from the management to the carers to the caretaker.
The only issue I may have is my mum could be taken to the toilet more often as she is found to be wet too often, and then her chair is just given a wipe down rather than completely sanitised.

My mother has been very well cared for at Lornebank Care Home. Over the past two years, any problems re her health/mobility have been quickly and professionally dealt with. Recently her health suddenly deteriorated but the staff called for her GP who admitted her to hospital. The doctors started her on an IV and also antibiotics, but after a few days it was found she had developed a problem with her heart rhythm and after treatment, she recovered woke up and started to eat again. On return to the home and she was warmly welcomed back by everyone who cared for her. She is happy to take part in the many activities and recently won a price at the bingo. Although my mother can be difficult at times I would be very happy to recommend this home to anyone looking for a good home for their relative or friend. She is
looking forward to her 90th birthday in June.

I recently joined Hudson Healthcare in May 2026, previously having worked across the NHS and private sector, covering roles such as general manager, senior general manager and recently regional director. I qualified as a nurse in 2006 and achieved my degree in nursing at Stirling University. Fifteen years of management experience have allowed me to bring experience that I am sure will benefit resident outcomes and make Lornebank a great home choice for the residents.
I am fortunate to have two grown-up children and four grandsons who live close by to me. I share my home with my partner and Baillie, who is my loveable boy, pet shih tzu.
Swimming and walking are how I enjoy my free time, alongside reading the odd Danielle Steele novel.
