In the heart of Auchlochan Village Garden, just a short walk from the village centre, Bankhouse provides truly personalised Nursing care.

“We embody MHA values,” says Home Manager Emma Davies. “That means treating everyone with respect and dignity, and as a unique individual.”

Each private bedroom has an en suite lavatory and wash basin, while some also have wet rooms or small baths. All residents are welcome to relax and socialise in the two lounges or take some time in the quiet room. They might also enjoy the air in the attractive courtyard, complete with lawn, flowerbeds and garden furniture.

Bankhouse hosts regular residents’ meetings with the Social Care Facilitator to understand what activities people wish to do, which often includes lot of games and outside entertainers – the kilt man band is very popular! Residents, staff and volunteers at Bankhouse also love to celebrate and often throw parties in the main lounge for milestone birthdays.”

The home has its own salon where residents can enjoy appointments with the hairdresser who comes by weekly.

Funded through charitable support, every MHA care home also prides itself in being able to offer unique and memorable opportunities and activities for residents to quite literally help them 'seize the day'.

For Bankhouse residents, residential and specialist nursing care is just part of a wider plan for full physical and mental wellbeing.

Whether enjoying time in a private en suite bedroom or socialising with others, you will always have the choice of how you wish to spend their time. Each resident has a personalised care plan for their own requirements, which is then delivered by a team of trained and dedicated staff and nurses.

The kitchen provides a choice of meals, catering for all dietary requirements or preferences; so if you fancy a curry or a Victoria sponge, you’ve only to let us know! Bankhouse also loves to celebrate, with decorations and home-made cake for birthdays.

Our cleaning and laundry service keeps your surroundings and clothing clean and fresh, and you’ll always have something to do with the Activity Co-ordinator’s full programme of events.

A chiropodist visits monthly or as and when required, a hairdresser visits weekly and a beauty therapist comes monthly to provide manicures, makeup application and hand massages.
