Mearns View Care Home

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.

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.

Amazing facilities are always kept to a very high standard - never have to worry about cleanliness. Nurses are on hand 24/7 and have a wide variety of activities.

I can’t praise the staff enough, nothing is ever a problem. It is welcoming, always clean with all the facilities you would expect at home with so much more. As a regular visitor, I find it comfortable and relaxing with all the privacy we would need available at all times. Highly recommend.

Staff are amazing standards really high. My father-in-law loves the place. Everyone in the home is very caring and attentive. Would recommend 100%.

My dad has lived in Mearns View Care Home for 10 weeks now and it’s been a huge positive life changing experience for us all as a family. My dad is the happiest he’s been in so long and it’s making a huge difference to our family. The staff have been so supportive of our family and for friends and family visiting it’s such a positive experience and nice place to catch up.

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.

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.

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!

I could not ask for more for my husband. The staff are very helpful and keep me informed about him. I think he is set in his way and will join when ready. I see improvements every week.

The nursing care given to my friend was exceptional, The nursing staff were very attentive and caring during his brief stay. He was very comfortable and peaceful. We we're very pleased with the personal care and attention he was given as an individual. They couldn't do enough for him. It felt like a five-star hotel accommodation and would certainly recommend this home to anyone.

The care that my mother got at Mearns View was above and beyond what I and my family could ever have imagined after her six months in the hospital. The staff from the nursing and care side were fantastic. All the staff were so friendly and made the family so welcome at each visit. The nursing staff kept us informed with very important information at the times when my mother's health was deteriorating, very professional, and totally empathised with the situation. Was so comforting to know that Mum was being cared for by the staff and was with family through the most distressing time of our lives at the point of losing our dearest mother. I could not fault any care my mother received at the home and was only glad this was where she spent her last days in your care. The facilities and rooms are of excellent standards, unfortunately, Mum was not well enough to have more time there. Thank you to all the staff again for your care. It is very much appreciated.

The staff were kind and attentive, and nothing was too much bother in the settling-in process. During this time, it was decided to make the placement permanent as another family member needed nursing care. Again timing, placing, and conditioning were excellent. The comfort and beautiful surroundings are apparent, but the quality of the management and staff were the deciding factor in the decision to stay.
