I visit my friends, mum & the care she receives is second to none. Care staff are very friendly & will do anything asked of them. Management are very friendly & very approachable, always asking if there is anything we need to make my friends' mums stay more enjoyable. To be honest all staff across
the board are really very good, we feel like we have made a few new friends. Would definitely recommend this care to anyone.

My Mum has been a resident since May 2020. In the last year there has been a marked positive difference in the continuity of care, lower staff turnover and a consistent approach to the care my Mum has received. I feel my Mum is cared for as an individual and she receives care tailored to her needs.
I also feel that the care extends to myself too, as a family member, and that has greatly improved how included I feel in my Mum's day to day life. The physical changes made to the lay out of the home have made a significant difference to how my Mum engages with staff and fellow residents, and this has improved her quality of life as a result. It is clear the staff and management care about the residents and the home is a joy to visit. Well done all.

My father was a resident at Livingston Care Home from April to December 2025, and I cannot speak highly enough of the care he received. Every member of staff was exceptionally professional, kind, and compassionate, and they took excellent care of my father throughout his stay.
He was always very
well looked after, and the environment was consistently clean, tidy, and welcoming. I genuinely cannot fault anything about this care home. The nurses and carers show remarkable kindness and respect to all residents, which made a huge difference to both my father and our family.
The food was excellent and the staff were always very accommodating to individual needs. The level of care and attention provided was truly outstanding.
Thank you sincerely to everyone at Livingston Care Home for absolutely everything you did.

Staff just brilliant, Lind the charge nurse is exceptional in every area.

My Dad moved into this care home in June 2025. The one thing that stood out to Me way before he moved there was how good the management was.
I was advised my Dad needed to go into care and had been going round various care homes in Livingston to see what they were like - Livingston Care Home was
the only place where the first thing they did was ask about my Dad. Everywhere else talked about costs and how to pay - they didn't. Management even came to visit my Dad in hospital completely off their own back. I knew at that point, this would be the perfect place for him. They genuinely cared more about finding out about my Dad than how we'd pay. That says a lot about them.
The staff have been amazing with my Dad - he can be quite demanding and grumpy at times due to his illness and as his mobility is gone, he has to rely on the staff to transfer from him from bed to a wheelchair. Nothing seems too much of a bother to them. I can't praise them enough for all they've done for my Dad

The staff was really friendly and welcoming and they seem to all have there time for the residents. The care home was clean and when I was waiting for my taxi the staff was singing to the residents which nearly had me in tears. I hope all the staff stay bless and know that you're doing an amazing
job

My two aunties are residents at Livingstone Care Home and we couldn't be happier with the level of care. The recent management has made a lot of changes, for the better. Absolutely fantastic care home.
29 April 2025
Excellent care home which was the main one recommended by friends. Myself and family are pleased in the knowledge that my wife is in good hands in this care home!

LCH home delivers excellent care to my wife. They are all so caring including the nurses, carer, domestic's and kitchen staff. In recent months the new managers have significantly improved the service as whole. I am looking forward to the new lounge opening so that I can spend my visits there, I
thoroughly enjoy chatting with the staff on my daily visits.

A lovely care home where my Mum has been a resident for 4 years. The staff are very caring and attentive and ensure that we (the family) are kept up to date on any issues relating to my Mum. I would highly recommend this care home for anyone looking for a safe, caring and friendly home for their
relatives/friends.
07 April 2025
Livingston Care Home is an extremly freidnly place to have your loved ones. The staff could not be any more helpful and management are available should need to chat. It is so nice to see Mum getting treated with dignity and respect and given choices despite her dementia. Thank you, keep up the
excellent work.

My father has now been in this care home for five weeks, and my father and I have nothing but praise for the staff, the facilities and the way he is being cared for. It is a very friendly environment and a happy feeling about it. My dad constantly praises the staff. The manager is always
approachable and has always answered any questions put to her. My dad was bedridden for five months, and they now have him up enjoying the activities keep up the good work.

My mum, who lives with Alzheimer’s, became a resident of Livingston Care Home three weeks ago. The manager came to visit Mum at home to assess for admission to Livingston Care Home. The manager was absolutely amazing with Mum, and I knew from that first meeting that the manager would take care of my
mum. I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised on our first visit to Livingston Care Home when Mum became a resident. The home is lovely and clean, every single member of staff has been so friendly, always keen to assist and has treated both our family and most importantly my mum with dignity and respect. Mum has settled in so well, which was totally unexpected. The staff cannot do enough for her, and I am 100% confident that she is receiving the best care for her needs. Her room is lovely and clean, having a little ensuite for privacy when toileting etc. We are beginning to add Mum's own items to make it more like home, although she does not remember much of home now. My mum is happy and I cannot say thank you enough.
08 September 2023
My mum is in this care home. She has very bad dementia and can be a challenge. The staff have been amazing, each and every one have provided excellent care for Mum despite her problems. Nothing appears to be too much trouble in finding ways to make my mum's stay more comfortable. Since my mum was
admitted I have lost my dad and again the staff have been superb. In addition to looking after my mum in an exemplary manner, they have shown me immense kindness and support in what has been an extremely challenging few months. Every member of staff I have interacted with across cleaning, admin, nursing and caring, and management have shown that they are totally committed to providing residents and families with as much help and support as they can. I really can’t praise them all enough and I’m sure my mum would too if she were able.

A huge, heartfelt thank you to all staff caring for my mum, just now and during the strict lockdown. Your kindness and patience are very much appreciated by myself and my family.
You have kept us well informed through emails and phone calls, regarding restriction changes and my mum's wellbeing.
My mum had only just moved in with you at the start of lockdown. Now, being able to visit, it's reassuring to see her feel at home in a lovely environment.
Best wishes to all.

My dad has been in this care home since March 2021 and the staff have been amazing. They look after my dad so well and us as a family they are on the ball telling us everything. I want to thank them all so much especially one member of staff who my dad sees the most and she had a great rapport with
him, as does another particular member of staff and all the staff. Keep peeling the tatties dad, you are so good at it. Thank you to you all.
07 June 2021
I would like to take the opportunity to thank all for the excellent care given to both our parents, sadly Dad has passed but Mum still gets the best care. Was hard through lockdown not being able to visit but the weekly video calls and pictures of all activities being shown made it a lot easier. Now
visiting has started again, the care you are taking to make sure all residents are safe is perfect. If I was asked about the home, I would recommend it 100%, for care, cleanliness, friendliness, all around everything - thank you.
23 May 2021
In the last 6 months, the staff have been a lot better than in the past. My mother seems to be more settled, let’s hope it stays that way. Downside, waited ten minutes on Sunday for someone to acknowledge my presence at the door which to me is unacceptable when they say 10.30 I don’t expect it to be
10.40. Other than that the manager has done a good job turning the place around.
19 May 2021
My dad was accepted into the care home in January 2021. The care is and still does an amazing job by all the staff. He loved them all. My dad has now passed away but, from the bottom of my heart, I wish to thank everyone involved in my dads care you all made his time with you all a happy and
contented one. When he passed l and my dad was treated with the utmost care and respect. This care home should be awarded 5 stars as he was always treated like a star. In my humble opinion.
11 May 2021
My sister moved into Livingston Care Home on the 30th March 2020 she is very happy. The staff are caring people, and attend to her every need, even better than I could. The food and the company of the residents are very good, this has taken the pressure off me knowing she is well cared for and I
have peace of mind. There is a lovely atmosphere about the place and staff. I have no hesitation about recommending Livingston Careholme.
