My grandad was put into the home for a short period. Throughout these last couple of weeks, the staff have been very accommodating, welcoming and reassuring. They answer any questions honestly, making a lovely environment for the family of the guests. My grandad struggled to settle but the staff would not let that stop them from trying. The facilities have a range of activities like day trips, barber and movies.

Maryrose is a fantastic manager and has helped us through the whole process, always taking the time to answer any questions we had and keeping us reassured throughout my Grandad's stay.
Although he has only been at St Columba's for a couple of weeks, it has been incredibly reassuring knowing that he has been somewhere he is safe, comfortable and genuinely cared for. Every member of staff we have spoken to has been friendly and welcoming, and it is clear how much they care about the people they look after.
As my Grandad gets ready to leave, I just want to say a massive thank you to Mary-Rose and the whole team at St Columba's for everything they have done for him and for our family. We couldn't have asked for better care!
We are truly grateful that you entrusted St Columbus Care Home with the care of your granddad. Knowing that you felt supported and reassured by our team means a great deal to us. Our staff work hard to provide a caring, compassionate, and welcoming environment, and it is heartening to hear that this made a positive difference to your family. Thank you.
Thank you for the love and compassion you gave to my sister, Rose during her final chapter. I will always be grateful to all the nurses and staff for making her feel safe and valued.

My aunt had a lot of difficulties in accepting she needed help. She was so understand afraid and angry about losing her independence. St Columbus have been amazing at helping support both her and the family in trying to deal with how difficult the whole process has been. My aunt has now settled down and is seeming happier.

Of particular note are three ladies who have had a good understanding of my aunt and how best to help her.
