Forthbank is situated in the peaceful residential area of Kildean in Stirling. This friendly, purpose-built care home with 68 beds offers nursing and nursing memory care for those living with dementia.

This welcoming home offers a choice of sitting and dining areas, all with simple furnishings chosen for maximum comfort. The lovely landscaped garden, which is looked after by some Residents, is a favourite location in which to relax or socialise with friends and family. All our bright and comfortable bedrooms and living areas are easily accessible by wheelchair. Some bedrooms have river views.

The home’s caring team has created an appealing family atmosphere, encouraging everyone to eat, celebrate and plan special occasions together. Residents are invited to decorate their rooms with small items of their own furniture and treasured belongings so that it feels just like home. Daily life is thoughtfully designed to support Residents’ mind, body and soul.

Forthbank’s Home Manager will make sure that all Residents receive the kindest possible care. Our extensively trained team will deliver all the nursing and specialist care and support services that your loved one requires. Personalised care plans consider not only medical, personal and dietary needs, but also the individual’s likes and dislikes, religious preferences, and any suggestions from family members that might make their stay with us that little bit more enjoyable.
