I have been visiting my sister-in-law in Haddington Care Home once a week for the past 18 months. The staff at reception are always friendly and helpful. The carers on the top floor are cheerful and attentive. The only negative thing I've noticed is the time it takes for the personal alarm button to
be answered.

My father is nearly 97 years old, very social, but needs nursing care. He moved into Haddington care home recently, and he loves it. It's very clean and well laid out. The staff really seem to care, from Admin staff to hands-on carers (he particularly enjoys visits from our collie). I feel we have
been well supported from the outset. Very well-led team.

My aunt is well cared for. All staff are really good with her.Care is good though the medication managing sleep is still an issue. Clinical staff keep me informed of any issues or updates with medication.
All staff are very approachable.
Entertainment team are good though my aunt does not engage
to much in that.
Overall she is settled and staff seem to be on top of all her requirements
A big thanks and well done
I have marked poor in relation to value for money. This is not a reflection on the care home I just believe all available care is overpriced for it people not supported by local authorities.

Overall I think my Auntie is very well cared for. The staff are excellent, reception staff are friendly and welcoming and the care team are always working hard and make time for anything we request.
My only constructive feedback would be on 2 points:
My aunties bedding looks worn, her pillows are
flat as pancakes and covered in dirty marks as in her arm chair.
Secondly her wardrobe and drawers are a riot. I tidy them up every week but when laundry return them (I appreciate they are busy and have huge amounts) but it would be good if they took an extra min just to put things in the right place or hang things on a hanger.

Mum was only in the care home for a month before her unexpected passing. She settled in very quickly as staff were extremely warm and welcoming. The care they gave her was exceptional and genuine. Her room was perfect with a wonderful view. When she became unwell their attentive care to her was
impeccable to the very end. She also said the meals were just like the ones she made at home. The care I got was compassionate and very supportive.

Popped in before Mum returns for 2 weeks respite. New Manager & Deputy Manager, so professional/welcoming, but also saw previous Manager who is overseeing a new home, in the same care group. Staff still very friendly and professional from management, clerical, nursing staff, carers, support staff
etc. Mum really enjoyed her previous visits here and sang the praises of the staff. The standard of food still looks excellent too.
Maintenance must be a high priority as very clean and beautifully furnished throughout.
I am completely confident that Mum will be in the best of hands and would highly recommend Haddington Care Home. The whole team are amazing and I am so grateful to have the peace of mind that Haddington Care Home provides.

Care in the home is outstanding.
Food provided could do much better.
The activities team do so much for the residents.
Above all the care home is a very nice place, very homely.

Mum moved into care home in March this year after a 4 month spell in hospital. Since moving in she is happier, integrates more with people in general. Participates on activities when she can (in wheelchair) and says she is happy. If she's happy we're delighted I find all the staff from reception to
manager all helpful and friendly and Mum says all staff very nice.

Mum couldn't have been better cared for and looked after than she has been at Haddington Care Home. The staff are all excellent and very caring; the home is beautifully furnished and laid out and is clean, spacious and light. The menus and food are lovely and there are lots of activities for the
residents. I never would have believed that Mum would settle in a care home but have been proved completely wrong! Thanks all.

From the moment we were given a guided tour of the home by the deputy manager, we knew that Mum would be given the best of care. Mum's needs are more than being met and the staff are truly wonderful. There are lots of activities, including singers, dancers, boat trips and days out in surrounding
towns. Overall, we are extremely happy and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Haddington Care Home to anyone wishing to place a family member in care.
25 April 2024
Pre-admission induction was extremely detailed and comprehensive.
Facilities, support and hands-on staff are excellent.
Residents are treated with dignity and in a friendly, considerate manner.
Social interaction and outside activity are excellent and well-supervised.

Haddington Care Home has provided a safe and friendly environment for my Mum who has mixed dementia. She has settled in very quickly spending most of her day in the communal area or taking part in activities. This has given her the interaction we were unable to give her at home and she has already
made new friends. The staff are very compassionate and treat her with respect and dignity, and I have confidence that she is being well cared for. The building is very clean and airy and maintained to a high standard. The rooms are very spacious and always clean and tidy. We were apprehensive about moving Mum into care, but everyone at Haddington Care Home have gone over and above to help with the transition.

I found Haddington Care Home exceptionally friendly, competent and comfortable for my wife who has been a resident since November 2023.
The staff were very eager to help and there was an atmosphere in the home which verified this from management down. The carers and nurses couldn’t have been kinder
and the cleanliness of the home was obvious from the reception area throughout.
I would commend this care home without reservation.
09 November 2023
A home with a family atmosphere with very caring and professional staff. Life is never dull and so much fun.
The rooms are large, bright and clean and all areas are easily accessed by residents to allow independence.
Thank you to everyone for looking after my mum so well.
26 October 2023
My mother's individual needs are very well catered for. I feel the home knows and understands her.
She is always clean and well-fed, and she is happy to engage with all staff and residents.
I marked down the room as it's a bit small with little room for visitor chairs. The wardrobe feels very
small, so we had to buy a larger one ourselves.
A lovely, happy place my mother now calls home.

My husband, with severe vascular dementia, settled very well for a week's respite. The facilities were excellent, and the staff was caring and respectful of his needs. There were plenty of activities, and he joined in everything. The bedroom accommodating was very clean and spacious. The staff also
showed great concern for my well-being. I was very impressed with Haddington Care Home, and my husband was happy there.
21 April 2023
I would highly recommend Haddington Care Home the care is second to none, the staff and management are so helpful the home is so welcoming and spotlessly clean. The food choices are great and the chef and her team will accommodate all needs.
11 January 2023
We are always made to feel very welcome when we come to visit mum in the home. My son loves to come and visit his granny and enjoys juice and a treat in the lounge. The staff are all very caring, friendly and attentive to the residents. The home is very clean, and the residents are well looked
after. There is a nice outdoor space that the residents can use and a lovely park nearby.

Amazing helpful staff. The lunches and dinners are well-prepared nutritional meals and birthday celebrations are made special. The residents are always being taken on trips out to different places and they do really enjoy it. Well done Haddington Care Home Staff.
28 November 2022
My wife was admitted to Haddington Care Home initially for a month's respite care (she suffers from Parkinson's related dementia). We were warmly welcomed by the manager and her dedicated nurse. Her room is well equipped and the lounge/dining area is of a very high standard.
