Before moving into a care home, a care needs assessment will help determine the type and level of care you need. This considers your individual needs and whether residential or nursing care is most appropriate.
Our team will work with you, your family and the professionals involved in your care to make sure we can provide the right support.
Residential care provides 24-hour support for people who may find some aspects of everyday life more difficult but do not require regular nursing care.
Our care teams can provide as much or as little support as each resident needs, including help with washing, dressing, mobility, medication and other aspects of daily living. Care is tailored to the individual, with a focus on helping residents maintain their independence, make their own choices and continue doing the things they enjoy.
Nursing care provides the same personal support as residential care, alongside clinical care for people with more complex or ongoing health and medical needs.
Our fully qualified Parklands nurses provide 24-hour nursing support, including medication management, monitoring health conditions and providing nursing interventions where required. They work closely with GPs and other healthcare professionals to ensure each resident receives the right care and support.
Nursing care is available to residents who have been professionally assessed as requiring nursing care.
Personalised care for people living with dementia, shaped around their individual needs, routines and life experiences. Our teams take time to get to know each resident, helping them feel safe, comfortable and supported while maintaining as much independence as possible.
Short-term care to support recovery after illness or hospital treatment, or to give families and carers a planned break. Residents receiving respite care are supported in the same way as long-term residents and are fully included in daily life and activities.
Compassionate care for people approaching the end of life, focused on comfort, dignity and individual wishes. We work closely with GPs and other healthcare professionals, while also providing sensitive support for families and those closest to the resident.
Care home funding can be complex and everyone’s circumstances are different. The main routes are:
Self-funding: Where you or your family pay your care home fees directly.
Local authority funding: If you have been assessed as needing care in a care home, your local authority will carry out a financial assessment. This looks at your income, savings and other assets and determines how much you will be expected to contribute towards your care home fees.
The following independent guides provide more information about care home funding in Scotland:

Full details of our fees, including what is included, will be provided before admission.
If you'd like to discuss your care needs or arrange a visit, speak to the manager at the home of your choice. They'll be happy to talk through the care and support available.
Every Parklands care home is regularly inspected by the Care Inspectorate, Scotland’s independent regulator for care services. Inspection reports are available at each home and on the Care Inspectorate website.
Alongside external inspections, our Quality Management System helps us continually monitor and improve the care we provide, informed by regular audits and feedback from residents, families and colleagues.
We are committed to providing high standards of care and service. If something falls short, we want to know. We take concerns seriously and work with residents and families to resolve them promptly, fairly and thoroughly.
