Cathkin House offers stylish modern facilities, quality care and a warm welcome.
The skilled team at our purpose-built care home provides expert nursing care for older people, some of whom are also living with mild dementia which is secondary to their physical needs.
We hold regular meetings with residents too, to talk about upcoming activities and get everyone’s suggestions about new dishes to add to the menu. We hold monthly care reviews with each resident and their family to ensure that the care we're delivering is in line with what they need and want.
Cathkin House itself is warm and comfortable. We're within walking distance of local amenities and shops, and there are good bus connections into nearby East Kilbride and beyond to Glasgow.
Each bedroom is spacious and light, and has en-suite facilities, stylish furniture, a 24-hour nurse call system and phone and television connections. Around the home are different lounges for relaxing or catching up with visitors - one of our lounges also features a children's area for younger generations who visit. There's also a hair salon so your loved one can enjoy a pamper at any tim
From the manager
“I joined Cathkin House in February 2021 and I was encouraged to join Care UK as I had heard about the diversity of the company - the caring practice and the values of the company says everything. I have been working in the care industry for 20 years now. I came to Scotland as a general registered nurse from Mauritius and with the support of my peers I worked my way up the career ladder. One of my biggest career highlights has been the awards I’ve won in my previous care homes. I’m proud to have won awards within the company, a Scottish care award as well as a community award for the care delivery in my home and engagement with the community. As a home manager, you need to be a good listener, patient and compassionate towards both your residents and staff. I believe you lead by example rather than being the boss. I am looking forward to promoting excellence in dementia in the home. I am also focusing on developing the person-centred care approach in the home, enablement, and implementing more meaningful activities.”
