Couldn't have asked for a better service of care for my Granda who was a resident at Forthbank care home for the last few months. He was cared for by the wonderful staff until he peacefully passed away on the 25/11/25 the staff were so caring and professional the way they treated us in the last few
days will stay with us forever. Nothing was a bother for them they were constantly asking if we needed anything can't thank them enough x

My mum was a resident of Forthbank Care Home for one and a half years before passing away on 5 June 2025. The staff were all amazing and in her final few hours treated her with love, dignity and compassion. Mum was always well looked after during her time there, and we knew she was always in safe
hands - every resident seemed happy and was always having a laugh and a giggle with staff. I would highly recommend.

My uncle was only a resident for 4 weeks before passing away. However, in this short period of time, all members of staff developed a rapport with him and treated him with great kindness, dignity and respect.

My aunt was put on end of life care, and I would like to thank all the staff at Forthbank Care Home for the care throughout my aunts time in the home, which was around 6 years. They really stepped up during her final days, and there care to her and my family was outstanding. Every member of staff
couldn't have done anymore. Even after she passed they gave her a Guard of Honour which was really thoughtful. So thank you for the care and dignity.

My mum was a resident for nearly 6 years, she was welcomed and treated amazingly from the day she entered until she passed away. Every single staff member in the home should be applauded for their dedication and hard work. Before my mum passed, she received end of life care. The staff were kind and
caring and considerate not only to my mum but to our family as well. We will always be grateful to them for the care, support, dignity and respect they gave to us and my mum.

The staff in the care home do an amazing job relevant to their job title, care staff. They cared and looked after my mother in law with dignity, respect, care and often a great deal of patience. They also cared for my sister at one point and I could not have asked for better people to look after my
loved ones. The staff should be rewarded, acknowledging their dedication to their job and their residents. We will be forever thankful.

If you talk to hte manager you get an instant response to any worries. Staff efficient in very way, polite and helpful. The home is spotless. Looking forward to ending my time there as my wife says I may be there sooner than later.

My mum has fairly recently moved to Forthbank and has settled in very well. She is treated with the utmost respect by the staff and management alike.The activities are amazing, the food is excellent. She is very happy here. This care home is run extremely well, where the wellbeing of residents is
considered a priority. We were as a family very lucky to have found this place for my mother.

Forthbank in Stirling has been a life line for our uncle who is living his best life, sales, warm, well fed and loved by all involved in his care. It has given the family a change to continue with their work and family life knowing he is happy. Thank you.

My experience with the care home has been excellent. My husband settled quickly thanks to all the staff who made it possible. His care is superb and his health is well looked after something I couldn't do for him. I congratulate Forthbank Care Home for their ongoing care and attention. Many thanks
on behalf of all the family.

An issue with a loose upper denture is not always addressed with a fixative - despite this being reported. This minor matter has been referred for dental advice and is pending. Speech is naturally badly affected and although I'm not present at mealtimes, I'm sure eating is also. Staff notice the
above when my wife is asked to open her mouth for medication - loose denture drops and affecting closing and opening.

My wife has been a resident since January 2024, and in that time I have been very pleased with the care she has received. The staff have been exceptional and have also shown a lot of affection for my wife. The staff have been very supportive of both my son and I during a difficult time. I have found
the facilities and events at Forthbank top class. I would also praise the manager and the admin staff for all they do for the residents.

Mum is being well looked after which gives the family peace of mind. The staff are wonderful with mum. The overall service is excellent. Her room is a bit tired but we appreciate funds are limited so we hope to remedy this ourselves. Mum has dementia and is deteriorating rapidly, but she appears
settled and content. We have our 6 monthly review coming up which is great to get feedback from the staff on her care, but we know we can speak to someone at any time should we have any concerns.

I was very impressed by the care of the staff - well trained all of them. The food was impressive. The heat in the home was rather high for my liking. I think all mature people should have a visit of 2 days in a home to see how they are run. The fear of ending our days there would not be so extreme
if one could really experience the care when we cannot do it ourselves.

My dad has been a resident of Forthbank Care Home for over a year. As a family, we are delighted with his care and treatment. We feel he is well cared for and looked after. Staff treat him with respect and dignity and kindness. Staff are always welcoming, friendly and understanding with all of the
family. We love the way there are various events for the residents and how the home communicates by newsletter, telephone and face-to-face. We feel nothing is too much for them and they are kind and patient with both my father and the wider family.

My father-in-law went to Forthbank in June 23. He had spent five months in a rehabilitation centre, during which time she deteriorated a great deal. After moving to Forthbank, he really improved quite dramatically. He was well looked after in Forthbank. The staff were fabulous and really looked
after my father-in-law.

My father was in Forthbank for two weeks respite, and from the minute we walked through the door, you could feel the lovely atmosphere. The staff were all so friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. My father thoroughly enjoyed being spoilt.
Although the rooms are spotless, the place needs to be
refurbished.
Would definitely recommend Forthbank.
