What others have to say

Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Murrayside care home.

It is difficult to put into words the relief that my sister and I feel, now our mum has become a resident at Murrayside. Seeing her smile and experience joy as she participates in activities whilst staff encourage and interact with her as if they’ve been friends for years, is wonderful.

Hilary (Daughter of a resident), April 2023

Our uncle has been very comfortable and has been so happy since he moved in. The lovely staff have really engaged with him. He thoroughly enjoys all the activities offered to him.

Susan (Niece of a resident), April 2023

The staff have taken time to get to know my Husband and adapt to his complex needs. He settled in almost immediately and is joining in activities. The staff go to great lengths to involve the family about any care the resident requires.

Frances (Wife of a resident), February 2023

My aunt moved to Murrayside recently and we both appreciate the warm welcome and effort. She is appreciating the new opportunities open to her - such as a trip to the panto!

Niece of a resident, January 2023

Mum was very apprehensive about moving from her own home. After one week she said that she couldn't imagine moving back to her flat and felt so settled. The staff are all very friendly, helpful and always available to answer any questions we may have.
