Cathkin House offers stylish, modern facilities and quality care with a warm welcome. The skilled team provides expert nursing care for older people, some of whom are also living with mild dementia.
The purpose-built care home is warm and comfortable with spacious, en-suite bedrooms, several lounges for relaxing in or catching up with friends and loved ones. There is even a hair salon so residents can enjoy being pampered at any time.
The team holds regular meetings with residents to talk about upcoming activities and get everyone’s suggestions about new dishes to add to the menu. Monthly care reviews are also held with each resident and their family to ensure that the care Cathkin House delivers is in line with what they need and want.
From the manager
“I joined Cathkin House in February 2021 and I was encouraged to join Care UK as I had heard about the diversity of the company - the caring practice and the values of the company says everything. I have been working in the care industry for 20 years now. I came to Scotland as a general registered nurse from Mauritius and with the support of my peers I worked my way up the career ladder. One of my biggest career highlights has been the awards I’ve won in my previous care homes. I’m proud to have won awards within the company, a Scottish care award as well as a community award for the care delivery in my home and engagement with the community. As a home manager, you need to be a good listener, patient and compassionate towards both your residents and staff. I believe you lead by example rather than being the boss. I am looking forward to promoting excellence in dementia in the home. I am also focusing on developing the person-centred care approach in the home, enablement, and implementing more meaningful activities.”
