Rubislaw Park Care Home

My dad was a resident at Rubislaw for about four months and the whole experience was positive and faultless. Dad was treated as an individual and with dignity and respect. His assigned carers were patient with him and supportive of us as a family. We had regular photos of him enjoying the various daily activities. His room was always clean and tidy. The entire staff from housekeeping, nurses, activity coordinators and carers were professional and demonstrated a desire to provide a high standard of care. There is a lovely atmosphere in the home and we enjoyed visiting not just Dad, but interacting with the other residents and staff. The manager and team have created a very special community here and we can’t thank them enough for the excellent care given to Dad.

I would like to say a heartfelt thank you to your very professional and caring staff. They went above and beyond to care for my father at the end of his life. He looked so relaxed and pain-free for the time he was in your care (thirty days). Thanks to all the staff involved. Such a beautiful, peaceful place. God bless!

The staff are so friendly and attentive. Since my mother moved in on April 14th, she has started eating again, conversing and her diabetes is under control. It’s as if she has gone back to 2019 pre-pandemic, chatting more and walking around (with her Zimmer frame). She still sleeps a lot and asks the same questions (mixed dementia), but the nursing care she receives is brilliant. There are events or activities on twice a day and with the warm weather, they have been sitting outside in the courtyard in ‘happy hour’. Thoroughly recommend Rubislaw Park, the management and staff, to anyone who needs their specialised skills.

The care provided has been professional, friendly and efficient; this applies not only to the nursing staff, but also to admin and reception.

Rubislaw Park Care Home just becomes better and better! Not only is Ash being redecorated and is really brightening up every day I go in, but they made my partner's 75th birthday extra special this time last week. Clearly, his birthday coincides with St Patrick’s Day and the day, the therapist comes in to visit so, even before the birthday celebrations began, my partner was already feeling really spoiled! He had received nearly 40 messages, cards and texts before the Activities Coordinator came in wearing her tall green St Patrick’s Day hat and bearing a beautifully iced vanilla sponge baked by the kitchen staff with candles for my partner to blow out - which he did with gusto! He was given beautiful, thoughtful gifts by the home and was made to feel really special by all the staff. Thank you, thank you, thank you, all of you, for all your hard work. You make life so special for all of us - residents and relatives alike and make lives long-troubled by declining health so very much more bearable and even happier.

Rubislaw Park Care Home is an excellent care home. The staff are very attentive and caring. The activities group are a great help to the residents. They do lots of different activities to keep them amused.

It's not a nice situation for anyone to be in, but I know my mum is being taken good care of and that gives me peace of mind.

I was over visiting my godmother for the Christmas holidays, and the care she received was excellent. I am so happy to see her happy in a caring environment where she feels safe. She enjoys participating in the activities that Rubislaw has to offer, like crafts and trips out of the care home. The manager was also very lovely and so welcoming.

We, as a family, loved the care help and newsletters. There's nothing bad we could say about it. I just loved seeing pictures of my father-in-law doing activities - the ice cream van photos and happy hour on Friday.

My grandfather was in the residential unit and the care staff were so good and caring towards him and the activities staff were so good with helping him come out of his shell. I would recommend Rubislaw Park Care Home.

The home itself maintains high standards of cleanliness and is efficiently run by a dedicated team under excellent management. This is not always the case in such establishments, yet the staff's dedication here is visible at all times. They ensure the residents have an enormous range of daily activities although they can opt to stay in their beautifully appointed rooms if desired. Overall, I can only say that my experience of visiting a distant relative here was a lovely experience and I felt so reassured regarding their care, well done Rubislaw Park Care Home.

Rublisaw Park Care Home is a friendly, nice and caring place. Mother is well cared for with plenty of activities to keep residents occupied.

Could not speak highly enough of the care given and the friendliness and kindness of staff. Always a warm welcome and the building and grounds are beautiful very ambient and a homely feel which is comforting.

Rubislaw Park Care Home is a wonderful care home. All staff are very welcoming, always have smiles and are very enthusiastic. The care my family member receives is exceptional and always well cared for. I couldn't ask for more. Thank you all at Rubislaw.

Thank you to the manager and all her staff.

The care that is provided to my father is second to none. Nothing is too much trouble and he feels safe and always looked after to his every need. All the staff are friendly and the management run the home as if it was their own. All in all, an excellent service.

I would highly recommend Rubislaw Park Care Home. When I have been in to visit my friend all the staff are always so kind and friendly, nothing was too much to ask for. I love seeing all the residents at the choir and happy hour. When I was in visiting, you would often see the manager doing a walk around and speaking to staff, residents and visitors which was nice to see. Rubislaw is always kept clean and the food is of a high standard.

Food is good.

It is wonderful. Mum's room is beautiful, comfortable and spacious. The staff are lovely, very caring and friendly and know mum very well. There is a great variety of activities and the team works tirelessly to make them fun, interesting and appealing. There is a great menu and meals and snacks are very tempting. We have just celebrated mum's birthday and we have had a lovely afternoon tea with staff singing and lovely gifts. I do not live locally, so it is very reassuring to know Mum is happy. It is a home-from-home.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Rubislaw Park to anyone looking for a fantastic care home in the future.
