A Warm Welcome to Gilmerton Care Home in Edinburgh
You’ll find Gilmerton Care Home has a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere, situated in Edinburgh. We are a short drive away from the city centre and nearby to public transport, making us easily accessible for visitors to pop-in for a chat.
Gilmerton Care Home in Edinburgh is only a mile away from Cameron Toll shopping centre, which makes for great days out for residents and their loved ones.
In our recent inspection, we were rated ‘GOOD’ in all areas and the Inspector said that it was impossible to fit all the positive comments from relatives into the report, but here’s a taster of some of the relative comments about our service:
- “We feel blessed that we got Gilmerton care home. We visited 5 or 6 and they were by far the best.”
- “The cleanliness is second to none, the home is amazing. I can’t give you a bad complaint.”
- “It’s been brilliant, couldn’t ask for a better home. I can go to bed at night and sleep, don’t need to worry that she’s alright.”
We believe just because someone moves into a care home, that doesn’t mean they should stop doing the things they love. That’s why we provide an ever-changing activities programme inspired by residents’ interests and needs. From regular trips out and visits from entertainers to baking and arts & crafts sessions, we offer a wide range activities to help residents live life to the full. Here’s a sample of what our current residents enjoy:
- Movement to music
- Games such as giant dominoes, skittles, large snakes and ladders, floor darts and more
- We love an afternoon tea out at the Woollen Mill and also a visit to the Robins Nest Pub
