Cramond Residence
Cramond Residence, Edinburgh’s finest care home, offers the highest quality personalised nursing, dementia and respite care.
Located to the north-west of Edinburgh in the tranquil village of Cramond, it is easily accessible from the city centre, and from across the Lothians and Fife.
A home-from-home
Designed to an exceptional standard, Cramond Residence promotes small community living. It comprises nine distinct houses, all named after historical Edinburgh districts, each with eight or nine generous en-suite bedrooms, as well as a selection of shared lounges, dining areas and activity spaces, creating a real homefrom-home feel.
One of the houses pays tribute to Ravelston, where golfing hats displayed on hat stands and check curtains pay homage to the classic attire worn at Ravelston Golf Club. Those who like the great outdoors will love the quirky, pheasant wallpaper in Braid Hills House, reflecting the wildlife found in the area, while admirers of the arts will appreciate the mixed gold frames and navy wall colour of Belford House – a nod to the National Gallery of Modern Art.
Further tributes to the capital can be found throughout, with bread tin accessories reflecting the old bakers and millers of Dean Village, and even a tribute to Greyfriars Bobby in the colour palette of Greyfriars House.
Creating and cherishing memories is an important part of the care provided, and picking up on historical themes of the city helps to create a sense of nostalgia.
Outside the Residence, beautiful, landscaped gardens provide a peaceful place to walk and relax. Exclusive, deluxe rooms with patio doors leading onto a private garden or balcony are also available.
Quality care
An experienced team of empathetic and compassionate professional nursing, care and support staff are led by Cramond Residence’s General Manager, Eileen Gray, and are committed to delivering the highest standards of care. The Residence invests heavily in staff development and uses robust employment processes to retain the best people, who have a mix of experience, skills and abilities.
Cramond Residence takes pride in a positive care approach, which promotes independence and ensures care plans are bespoke and suited to individual needs.
The Residence also has an exclusive partnership with Balanced – Edinburgh’s premier physiotherapists – to offer optional health and wellbeing support at the physiotherapy gym and treatment area.
Good quality food and nutrition are also a key focus as they are essential for wellbeing and happiness. Cramond Residence’s highly qualified chef leads a skilled catering team to create nutritious food plans using the finest and freshest seasonal ingredients, which are tailored to individual tastes, beliefs or dietary requirements.
There is a private cinema for watching the latest blockbusters or classic movies, a hairdressing and beauty salon for a spot of pampering, and a café to share a cup of tea with friends.
A wide programme of activities is also on offer, including musical performances, history talks, arts and crafts, and visits from the local nursery and primary school, and from the care home’s therapy dog, Toffee.
