Westerton staff have transformed my brother's health and enjoyment of life. Since he was admitted 10 weeks ago, with their excellent care and kindness.
He has been transformed from, initially, a very reluctant resident to a very grateful, comfortabe happy resident.

My Mother resided in Westerton for the last 3 months of her life having only recently passed away in early August. The care received by our Mother was exemplary in every way. ALL the staff were wonderful, friendly, approachable to our Mother and us.
Really, I cannot praise everyone enough who we
met and works in Westerton Care Home.
They are all super professional, caring staff, one and all, and contributed so much to enable my Mother to be a happy, nurtured, loved person in the last few months of her life. Our family cannot thank them all enough. Westerton Care Home is a wonderful place and I would recommend it to anyone who requires to be in care.

My experience has been very positive, with a very relaxed initial viewing followed by a relatively smooth move-in for my mum. Everything overall good a few minor niggles but to be expected with the change from home to care home for the first time. All staff are very friendly and caring.

My friend was nursed and so well cared for in Westerton Care Home for 2 weeks, in this time, I visited every day, and was very impressed with his level of care and compassion/kindness. I felt he was in very good hands, the staff were exceptional and I had no worries for his safety and care. They
went out of their way to make his stay there as comfortable as possible. Thank you all from myself, and on behalf of his family.

The team at Westerton have been amazing. My father has been so perfectly looked after and his stay has been comfortable and easy, and exactly what my dad needed. Thank you Team Bute.

My mum moved into Westerton 5 months ago and is so comfortable, and all the staff from cleaning, laundry, kitchen, offices, maintenance, hairdressers and the carers and nursing staff are so friendly, helpful and supportive, they go out of their way to make the residents feel like a big family. The
home is kept clean and fresh and the variety on the menu seems varied, there always seems to be things going on to keep the residents busy. It's always hard if the time comes and someone needs to become a resident in a home but all at Westerton Care make it as easy as possible, everyone is always made so welcome.

I was impressed with the decor and cleanliness of the building and the quality of the facilities, both medical and recreational (indoors and out): it was the care and consideration of the staff which made the greatest impression. My cousin was allocated a lead nurse, and a first-year student. I live
abroad, but was still able to get regular daily updates on my cousin's condition and was able to speak with him on the phone. A wide variety of food and drink was always available, and all the nursing staff, carers and auxiliaries made a point of talking with him whenever they had reason to be in his room. All residents had the use of several communal rooms, dining areas and recreational facilities all of which were bright, airy, beautifully clean and well-decorated, and I noticed a small dedicated maintenance team who were an integral part of the workforce and they, too, displayed care and consideration towards the residents as they carried out their tasks.

I am very happy with the care my mother is getting in Westerton Care Home. She is treated very well by all the staff. The fact that she is very content speaks volumes for the care and attention she is getting. Thank you all.

Overall the standards of the care home are very good, facilities are also good and varied. The staff in the main are attentive and friendly, menus are also varied and of good quality. A nice personal touch on our 50th Wedding anniversary, they organised a special meal in the Cafe area with wine a
nice touch which was appreciated.

The only complaint I have is when I call from abroad, many times I call and get no answer or I get through and no answer at the nursing chamber.

My dad came to Westerton, Bearsden as an emergency after Mum had a fall. EDC could not have found a better place for my dad. He has dementia and has difficulty chatting to people. He really liked the communal dining room in Mall Ward. The food was excellent. My dad's room was kept very clean and he
received truly exceptional care. The manager on Mull Ward went above and beyond to make my dad's stay comfortable. Unfortunately the activities lady was on holiday. The haircut at the end was the icing on the cake for my dad. Thank you so much.

They take great care of my grandad and are always friendly and chatty to me when I come in. They have a natural rapport with all residents and take a genuine pride in going the extra mile. A real effort to get residents into social areas too.

My uncle has been a resident in Mull Unit for two weeks. Every single member of staff has gone above and beyond to help him settle in. The respect for his wishes and preferences and tailoring his care has been incredibly impressive and I'm really grateful to everyone for everything they are doing to
help him settle in.

My mum has received nursing and residential care over a number of years from Westerton Care Home. She has been suffering from Alzheimer's dementia for a very long time. Her care here has been excellent and she is attended to with dignity, friendliness and respect. She is taken out on trips which she
greatly enjoys and she has access to a garden where she can sit with the sun on her face and listen to the everyday sounds of the outside world which brings her joy. I think the staff are wonderful and kind.

Westerton continued to provide first-class care for its residents. The staff at all levels are very courteous and kind, and seem always to treat the residents with patience. The accommodation is excellent and it is fortunate to have outside space to enjoy when the sun shines! I have always been kept
well informed of any health or other issues relating to my wife.

Found care to be what I required for my wife.

Experience with the home has always been good and the staff have always been caring and patient with my mother who has been a resident for over ten years now. They always seem to do the right things for her and are very attentive when there is something not going well. They always have her safety
and well-being at the main principle of her well-being.

My mother was cared for after a spell in hospital following a broken hip. She was cared for to rehabilitate and although circumstances did not allow for the physical, and occupational therapy, we had hoped for, that was not the fault of the staff in who, without exception, cared for her in a kind
and sensitive manner. Anytime she was visited by the family she was always fulsome in her praise for her carers. My personal thanks to all the care home staff as well as social work staff and our local district nurse and rehabilitation team.

My wife has dementia and is wheelchair bound and thus dependant on staff for all facilities. Staff provide her care with a personal approach encouraging interaction. Interaction with nursing, activities and management staff is good and rooms and communal facilities are well maintained.
