Guthrie House Care Home is a modern purpose-built home, set in landscaped gardens, conveniently situated in the South-East of Edinburgh. We are in easy reach of the A720 and close by to public transport, making us easily accessible for visitors to pop-in for a chat.
Our Care team offers nursing care for people who have complex medical needs, as well as 24-hour nursing dementia care provided by specialist teams trained in the complexities of looking after those living with dementia, who may also have other long-term medical conditions.
We run a busy activities programme so residents get the most out of every day, including regular day trips out, and visiting entertainers. We have strong links with local voluntary groups and churches, who always put a smile on our residents’ faces.
We are only half a mile from the shopping centre and a short drive away from the city centre, which makes for a great day out for residents and their loved ones.
