Together with our committed care and support staff , there is a wonderful, compassionate team that form a strong professional unit providing our residents with kindness, fun, affection and, above all, respect.
Muirfield meets the National Care Standards, see our inspection report . This is mainly due to the outstanding performance of our staff, with many having worked here for a number of years, giving essential continuity of care for residents.

Thank you for the care you gave my brother. Although we were only able to visit a couple of times, we saw the care he was given. My sister-in-law, sent us the newsletter so we were able to keep up with events and pictures.
Georgina, Sister of Resident, Muirfield
We would like to thank all the staff for their support during my mother’s stay, particularly near the end of her life when we felt so welcomed and free to spend as much time as we wished with her. The staff showed compassion and patience when mum was restless, and when it was difficult to care for her. We felt so glad that she was well looked after and loved by the staff.

Lovely welcoming home. Staff take good care of my mum and I know she is safe and very happy there.
Daughter of Resident, Muirfield
Thank you for the excellent care given to my auntie. I got to visit her often at the home, and she had settled in so well. I was glad she was so near me, so I could return her past kindness to me – she was like a second mother to me.
Nephew of Resident, Muirfield
I couldn’t rate the care home highly enough.
Robert, Husband of Resident, Muirfield
The staff are friendly, capable and professional. In particular, I wish to make a special mention to one member of staff who is based on the third floor. He is a star who is kind, thoughtful to the individual patient’s needs and very helpful. He gives us great confidence that my father is being very well looked after and in a safe, comfortable and caring environment.
Graham, Son of Resident, Muirfield
My mother has now been at Muirfield for 1 and a half years. The permanent members of staff are always very cheerful and kind and seem to have built up a good relationship with her. They always give my mother a good welcome back when she has been away staying with us at home for a few days. The food is good and there is a great hairdresser. The gardens are very well tended and my mother spends as much time as possible outside. The gardener even keeps jobs back for her to do.
