My Auntie had a good experience at Craigieknowes. The home itself could do with some modernisation but they are working on that, however the team here are excellent. Although my Auntie had her down days she also noted on many occasions how she felt safe and cared for. From her familie's perspective we could see that was the case. I particularly appreciated how I was included at every step with her care and her situation. It was clear that there is a high level of professional expertise at Craigieknowes along with compassion front and centre.
Thank you for your review Rhiannon. It was our privilege to care for Auntie and we are delighted that she felt safe and cared for and that you were happy with her care and felt included. We are always striving to improve the home and a programme of refurbishment continues . Thanks again Rhiannon

Overall the staff were very caring, professional and attentive to helping needs. Were always very welcoming, genuine and could see they generally care for the residents in their care. At times the communication between staff members could be slightly better as occasionally found to have to repeat information multiple times. The end of life care was exceptional and felt really reassured at such a sad time.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you found our staff caring, professional, attentive, and welcoming, and that you felt reassured by the exceptional end of life care provided during such a difficult time.

N.B., My only lower score (value for money) is because I believe the cost of care homes is remarkably expensive.

In the beginning, I was very upset about putting my mum into a nursing home, but since then, I now realise this is the best, and safest, place for her to be and I am very thankful to all the staff for their constant supervision of my mum.
Another year and I have nothing but absolute respect for all the Staff looking after my Mother in Law. The manager and the team continue to provide a very personal and caring service to my whole family. Great job.

Mum has been in Craigieknowes Care Home for over a year and I feel very lucky that she has gained a second family who takes such care of her every day. The home is clean, bright and welcoming and every member of staff stops for a chat with both Mum and myself anytime we meet them. I feel all the staff know Mum well and the affection they have for her is evident in all the little things they do to meet her individual needs and preferences. The atmosphere is calming and Mum loves the pets who bring her much amusement and fun. There are regular activities available and although Mum doesn’t always take part, the staff go out of their way to find her something she will enjoy and we both like a wee tea party for a special occasion! I cannot thank the manager and her staff enough for the care they give Mum every day.
The staff and management are all fantastic at Craigieknowes Care Home! They are very friendly and welcoming every time you walk through the door, they are amazing with my mum as she is always doing some sort of activity. I would highly recommend.
