My mother was given a warm welcome from the moment she arrived. The staff are very caring, often go the extra mile and pay attention to detail, enabling my mother to feel happy and secure in her new home. Her room looks like home too with some of her furniture and pictures on the wall which were put up as soon as she arrived.
I have been here for 2 weeks and I am extremely happy with my treatment and the staff are wonderful. The food is very good. It is kept beautifully clean. The activities are very good - plenty to do. I am never bored. The decor is very pleasing to the eye and modern.

All staff and helpers I have met have been most professional. Their compassion of a situation shines through and all have been cheery and welcoming over a somewhat stressful festive season. Thank you all so much.

Choosing Thirlestaine Park was absolutely the right decision - Mum was so happy there. All the staff were so friendly and caring, the food was delicious and the rooms were kept spotlessly clean and fresh.
Nothing was ever too much trouble for the staff. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for the best possible care for their loved ones.
I came to Thirlestaine Park Care Home after a "whole new knee operation" on the 12th of October. I have enjoyed my stay, the nurses were supportive and the food extremely good over my two-week visit. A friendly atmosphere, with a lovely garden to walk in.

I carefully chose my respite with family and carer and here I am, which is a beautiful, well run, friendly and homely place. I consider myself lucky to be here. The multidisciplinary team, from housemaids, to carers and managers, all work together putting individual and patient care first.
The staff are kind and really do care about the extremely high standard of care they deliver. Nothing is too much trouble and it is a home from home. I shall use on a regular basis if there is availability.

The care that he received was outstanding - the love and understanding were outstanding.
My siblings and I spent the last 3 days of his life with him and without exception, every person working at Thirlestaine was professional, compassionate and caring to all of us.
Everyone went well beyond the call of duty.
We can't thank you enough.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience of our home. I will ensure the whole team hear your wonderful feedback. Warm wishes.
The care for my father was exceptional in every way. The staff were always on hand - checking my father and the whole family way beyond the call of duty. I cannot thank every single member of staff enough for everything they did for him and us.

I came to this home for a limited period for respite care after a back operation, although I am conscious that most of the residents, because of their needs, are there for longer term. During the first few days of my stay, I suffered a critical medical condition. The staff were excellent in their response and ensured I was taken to the critical ward at hospital. One member of staff was very involved in this and I am very grateful for their care. Five days after I returned to the home as I was in a very anxious state. I received excellent support and encouragement to return to my own home.

All members of staff, without exception, looked after our dad with professionalism, compassion, gentleness and love - nothing was ever too much for them and they guaranteed his dignity and well being to the end.
He lasted just three weeks in the home but they made his life as easy and pain-free as was possible.
They were amazing with our entire family and so caring with our mum who outlives our dad.

I am pleased to have chosen Thirlestaine Park for my respite care following shoulder replacement surgery. Right from the moment I arrived the welcoming care was evident throughout my stay. All my needs were anticipated and taken care of by the efficient and cheerful staff. Nothing was too much trouble. There is a good atmosphere in the home among the residents too. In all, it has been a good experience for me, and in many ways, I am sorry to say goodbye - for now anyway! Thank you to everyone.
My experience at Thirlestaine Park has been a fantastic time. Nothing is too much trouble and all the staff are second to none. Everyone workes together and that is shown by the standard throughout the home.

My father came to Thirlestaine as he had high dependency nursing needs and I wanted somewhere who could care for him until the end. Like anyone I felt guilty about having to take this step but from my initial call, I could not have been more impressed by the professionalism of everyone involved....
My father came to Thirlestaine as he had high dependency nursing needs and I wanted somewhere who could care for him until the end. Like anyone I felt guilty about having to take this step but from my initial call, I could not have been more impressed by the professionalism of everyone involved. The home is beautiful, clean, welcoming and the food is fantastic (and I ate enough of it myself there to vouch for this) - nothing was too much trouble to tempt dad's failing appetite. Visitors were welcomed, and his medical care was excellent, with regular GP visits, qualified nurses etc able to deal with all aspects. However the main thing was the excellence of the staff and towards the end of dad's life, I spent so many hours, day and night there, to be able to see that all staff were outstanding and some exceptional. They cared for my dad, and me, with dignity, compassion and kindness throughout. I had so much support when the end came. I'd recommend Thirlestaine to anyone unreservedly.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience of Thirlestaine Park. I will share this feedback with a very deserving team, Kim.
Difficult to put into a few words. The home is utterly beautiful, wonderful decor akin to a four-star hotel! - but more importantly a warm caring and loving atmosphere. Always spotlessly clean. All the Carers from the most junior to the most senior are caring and compassionate. The dining staff...
The entertainment and trips out always entertaining and interesting. I'm so sorry my mother was there for only 9 months. At least her final months were as comfortable as possible.
We were pleased to be able to care for your mother and my team will be thrilled to hear such lovely feedback. Warm wishes
I came to the care home for post operation care. It was perfect, very comfortable with excellent food. The staff were so helpful and sympathetic and the sitting room and dining room. Lovely bright spaces.

Hello, my name is Sherin, and I am the Deputy Home Manager here at Thirlestaine Park.
I am a nurse with 15 years of experience in the care sector. I have been in management for 8 years, supporting and guiding staff in delivering high-quality, compassionate care.
What matters most to me is our residents. I make it my priority to be present, to listen, to offer reassurance and to support their physical and emotional well-being. I believe feeling heard, respected and cared for truly changes a person's quality of life.
I am a mum to two wonderful girls, which has shaped the way I care: with patience, empathy and compassion. I truly believe the smallest acts of kindness can have the biggest impact on somebody's day.

Hello, my name is Tracey, and I am the Residential Care Manager here at Thirlestaine Park.
I have worked in various business sectors throughout my career; however, venturing into adult health care was the best career decision I ever made. I thoroughly enjoy meeting, caring for and working with such a diverse community.
In 2023, I achieved my Level 5 in Leadership and Management in Adult Care with my optional subjects in Staff Appraisals, Dementia Care, End of Life Care and Infection Prevention and Control. I hope to commit to further learning experiences soon.
I am passionate about the well-being of our residents and team and always make myself aware of everybody's uniqueness, being available throughout the day to stop for a catch-up or to provide support through difficult times with compassion and respect.
I take responsibility for all aspects of care and support delivered for our residential residents and always work in line with relevant legislation, regulations and local policies and procedures.
I am a very organised and responsible individual with high standards, and I always look for ways to continually add to my experience and improve upon my knowledge.

Hello, my name is Jessica, and I am the Home Trainer here at Thirlestaine Park.
I have worked in the care sector for 31 years, and during that time, I have developed a real passion for supporting both residents and the teams who care for them.

I use my experience to help build team member confidence, skills and understanding, so they can provide the highest standards of person-centred care. I believe that compassionate, well-trained team members are key to creating safe, happy and welcoming homes, and I take great pride in playing a part in ensuring our residents and their families feel supported, respected and reassured.
