Very happy with Mearns View Care Home. Facilities are excellent, staff efficient, friendly and caring. Activities over the festive season varied, extensive and much appreciated for the residents. Parking is an issue! May prove more of a problem when full capacity is reached.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My aunt and uncle have been residents for the past 6/7 months, what started off as respite soon became their home and has changed their quality of life. They have been made to feel safe and secure knowing there is someone at the end of a buzzer and this is a credit to the professionalism of all staff.
Everyone goes above and beyond their duties to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents is a priority treating them with dignity and compassion. It has been a pleasure getting to know everyone, from the moment you enter you are welcomed in a friendly manner, the surroundings are immaculate and the staff are knowledgeable. The chef definitely has his work cut out for him meeting the very varied diets and demands but always leaving residents satisfied. The other facilities like the cinema, the cafe lounge and the hairdressers are again all of a very high standard, definitely five-star hotel standard. It has been my pleasure to get to know everyone. You should all be very proud.

I have been staying here for three weeks now and can say it has been a very easy transition. From my first introduction to the staff, I felt so comfortable and at home. Not only have I made new friends but I have discovered that my new friends share connections within our local community. The food is
of good variety and quality. There is a cinema which has become the centre of our everyday entertainment where we choose the evening's entertainment.

Both my parents were admitted on an emergency basis, my mum first then my dad. My dad has now passed away and my mum has settled well into the care home. The staff provide good personalised care for my mum, which provides her with the support and structure she needs due to her Alzheimer's.

My sister has been a resident at Mearns View Care Home for a few months now. The care she is getting is first-class and the accommodation is very nicely done with beautiful rooms and gardens. The cafe is a favourite place to meet with her and have a chat over a coffee and some homemade cake! The cinema
room is also a favourite. The staff are just brilliant and nothing is too much bother for them. The manager, deputy manager and team do a really great job looking after her! She is very happy at Mearns View and as a family, we are content knowing she is getting first-class care and attention at all times. I would highly recommend Mearns View for anyone wanting and needing the exceptional care this home gives.

My mum was recently in Mearns View Care Home for respite care while I was on holiday. This is her second stay. She enjoyed it so much she wanted to go back. The facilities are excellent. Lovely rooms and public areas with beautiful furnishings. All the staff I encountered were exceptionally kind, thoughtful
and considerate. Nothing was too much trouble. My mum is very fussy about her food and she really enjoyed her meals during her stay. I would definitely recommend Mearns View Care Home.

My mum went to Mearns View Care Home for respite while I was on holiday. She really enjoyed her stay. She was kept busy with daily activities and enjoyed the company.
Mealtimes were enjoyable with nice meals, she also enjoyed the entertainment room with movies.
Getting her hair done was an added
bonus as she cannot manage this herself. She tells her friends that she had a great time and wants to go back when I next have a holiday. This was great to hear.

I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at Mearns View Care Home. From the manager, the nursing staff, activity organiser to the housekeeping staff all have been amazing. They welcomed my husband into their care which in turn lifted the heavy load of caring for my husband from my family’s shoulders.
Great food and comfortable living and socialising areas and a variety of activities, mean that residents have all they could wish for. As a family, we are so grateful that this place exists.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Our mum was in the care home (which we refer to as the luxury 5 star hospice) only for a week for end of life palliative care, before she passed away peacefully. We cannot rate Mearns View Care Home highly enough, we had the most positive experience during a very difficult time. Our mum received exemplary
care and was treated with utmost dignity, respect and compassion. Her room was so homely and she was very comfortable there. We filled it with family photos, personal bits and bobs and flowers. The whole care home is beautifully decorated, and very well thought through with incredible attention to detail. Our daughter very much enjoyed the beautiful gardens and playpark when she was visiting too. All of the staff are incredible and made us feel so welcome and at home, so that we could be at Mum's side during her last few days. They took the time to get to know us and were so supportive and understanding. We are delighted we found this place. Highly recommend. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Mearns View is a brand new care facility who were able to accommodate my mum when we needed emergency respite care. She is now a permanent resident, and although leaving the same home she had lived in for 57 years she has settled incredibly well. Every member of staff is warm, welcoming and caring.
The facilities make friends and family welcome - having a cafe, outside seating and flat garden paths to walk around. A play area is perfect for visiting great grandchildren. My mum really enjoys the food which is a great compliment from her!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.916)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.916) out of 10 for Mearns View Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 33 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 33 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.916 for Mearns View Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (364 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 395 Ratings = 4.916
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Mearns View Care Home is based on 33 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 67 registered maximum number of service users is 13.4, which has been reached with 33 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
