Northcare Residences Stirling

Northcare in Stirling is an excellent and modern home. The furnishings and surroundings are of 5 star quality. Staff are excellent and could not be more helpful. They have helped my friend settle in which took a while as he very anxious in leaving his home due to his need for 24 hour nursing care. The staff are very helpful at all times and care for all his needs. Would definitely recommend this care home and all their e collect staff.

First 6 weeks at Northcare, couldn't have gone better.

Attention to detail is outstanding, as is instant responses to queries.

We made the right choice after an extensive search.

Long may it continue.

Our thanks to every single one of the individuals who make our Mum's life as easy, safe and happy as it can be.

We have just placed our mum here. We used this site to help us pick the best care home so wanted to write a review to help others. First of all you have to visit multiple care homes to make a judgement and when you do that you will see that Northcare Residences is head and shoulders above the rest. Care homes are expensive but at least here you can see and feel where the money is being spent. It's very much 5* All inclusive. Everything is to the highest standard from the furnishings and activities on offer to each member of staff. This is reflected in their Care Inspectorate reports too so not just our opinion. The welcome we received from the management, nursing staff, care assistants and hospitality team have been exemplary. They have all been friendly, professional and kind. We dreaded this time in mums dementia journey but that has been completely turned around and we are excited for her to make new friends and have new experiences that will definitely enrich her life.

My friend has had excellent care since moving to Northcare Residences. All the staff have been so kind and friendly. We can now be reassured that our 98 year old friend is cared for and safe and can live out her years in a stimulating environment.

Myself and the family are very happy with Northcare Stirling, with caring for my Mum. The staff, care, support, facilities, cleanliness, activities, and food, are all excellent and I would not hesitate to recommend Northcare.

We feel very lucky that this facility was available to her when she needed care and gives all of our family peace of mind that she is being well looked after.

Northcare Residences have been brilliant for my brother who is just 66 and lives with Frontal Temporal Dementia. I am his only relative and cared for him as best as I could, getting in social care etc too his home or should I say house. He was lonely and depressed as he became more insular and less mobile. I moved him into Northcare in September 2024 and it has been a joy from the beginning. From a lovely room, which I have personalised, great food, social spaces such as the brasserie and bar, cinema and hairdresser. He is happy and settled there. The staff are lovely and make sure he is always ok, checking regularly and chatting, a cheery wave which he loves as well as the necessary nursing skills that they need to have. They are all lovely. The activities are all well planned and interesting. They all communicate regularly. I am so much more relaxed knowing he is so well looked after. It is absolutely worth the slightly higher fees for the 5 star accommodation, food and drink and staff.

Thank you Team Northcare for taking such good care of my mum.

My father moved into Northcare in Stirling in October 2023 and still lives there. The facilities and food are top-notch. I can't speak highly enough about the staff there. The general manager and front of house manager have always been extremely helpful and attentive to my requests. The nursing team led by two particular members of staff has been first class and, again, I am very thankful for all the care and affection they have provided to my dad, spending one one-on-one time with him, ensuring he gets involved in social activities, getting him to laugh and smile despite his dementia, hearing difficulties and immobility challenges. Two particular staff members in the hospitality team always ensure my father always enjoys his time there. I live overseas so it was particularly important to find a home where I could safely entrust the staff to take good care of him. Northcare have exceeded my expectations. They have been truly brilliant with my dad and I will be forever grateful.

My dad has thrived in his time there and he's genuinely happy to be living in such a well-run facility. All staff members are professional and show real compassion and pride in their work. It's such a weight off all of our minds knowing he's being taken care of by staff there. It's a pleasure to visit him and I could not recommend this place any higher.

Great facilities and stimulation for the residents.

My husband stayed at the care home for respite for 8 nights. We can't thank the staff enough for providing such a five-star service. Everyone was very friendly, helpful, accommodating and caring at every step of the way. Excellent facilities, food, care, nursing care and extras, such as a cinema, rooftop terrace, cocktail bar and brasserie. We will definitely return.

The use of outside space for meeting and relaxing is so good and helps us all to relax. Concierge staff very attentive and helpful.

My mum has been a resident in Northcare Stirling for 7 months now. She has settled so well and continues to do so. The standard of care is met with all mum's requirements to the highest of standard. We were able to make her room familiar with family pictures from home. On entering the home you can tell immediately how clean and welcoming it is. All staff are extremely friendly and welcoming while remaining extremely professional. I'm so happy Mum is a resident of Northcare. As a family, it has given us total peace of mind.

The care that our dad is receiving at Northcare is exceptional. All staff from reception, to hospitality, housekeeping, carers, nurses and management treat our Dad with the utmost respect. The care and kindness shown on a daily basis genuinely warms my heart. Nothing is too much trouble and there is never a raised eyebrow, eyeroll or sigh... all care is carried out with a smile and a great deal of compassion. The staff are ever present and chat, laugh and build relationships with the residents and their families. The medical support from Viewfield Medical Practise has also been outstanding. In addition to the wonderful care, there is a wide range of activities and entertainment, the food is made freshly in-house and the surroundings are of very high standard and well maintained. We are very grateful to everyone at Northcare. We have peace of mind each time we leave, knowing our dad is safe and being well looked after by the most wonderful team of people.

My dad has settled in well to Northcare Residences, we loved the feel of the home and the people who run and work in it. The staff are interested in my dad and engage well with him and my sister and I too. We especially liked the high ceilings and spacious bedroom although my dad is spending lots of time out of his room which is a great surprise to us joining in with other residents and taking part in activities including days out and the cinema within the care home. We feel he is safe and looked after and his quality of life has improved since coming in almost 3 months ago.

I simply couldn’t be more grateful.

This care home is very welcoming indeed - all the staff are cheery and chatty, but also professional. The management, nursing staff and hospitality teams are a real credit to Northcare, as are the departments visitors don't tend to engage with such as housekeeping and maintenance. The building is bespoke and each of the resident's rooms is very spacious with high ceilings throughout. The communal areas have some very nice pieces of old/antique furniture further adding to the ambience and experience. The care that my father has received since he became a resident at the start of 2024 has been first-class - they have stabilised his medication and he is looking well for his age. It is evident that he is well-settled and happy here. The range of activities provided by Northcare is impressive and my father attends most of these. Food quality is excellent and varied. I have recommended Northcare to a number of friends who have elderly parents in the Central Belt.

It feels so good to put our heads on our pillow at night knowing that Mum is safely tucked up in bed and she has had a happy day.
