Orchard House is situated in a beautiful conservation area in the Clyde Valley, only three miles from Carluke and six miles from the market town of Lanark.

A former stately mansion, Orchard House is now home to up to 37 residents and its extensive grounds and landscaped gardens provide a quiet and pleasant environment for residents and their families to enjoy.

We cater for residents with the following conditions:

  • Mild mental illness
  • Frail/elderly diagnoses
  • Dementia/Alzheimer's
  • Terminal illness

Personal Services

As well as 24 hour nursing care, we offer our residents a range of personal services provided within the care home, which further enhances their well-being . Regular visits from specialists such as Doctors, Opticians, Audiologists, Dentist and Chiropodists ensure our residents physical and medical conditions are monitored and addressed, along with the speedy provision of any spectacles, dentures, hearing aids or medications they may require.
Personal extras - such as hairdressing, toiletries, newspapers and manicures - can also be provided on request.

Activities

We aim to provide a wide range of organised and informal activities for residents of all abilities and interests. Residents are encouraged to continue existing interests and activities, take up new ones, or play a part in the day to day running of the home if they wish. We have an activities advisor to support and co-ordinate local activities .

Cuisine

Meals are prepared each day by the chef manager, using fresh ingredients. There is always a varied menu offering an interesting and nutritious diet. Meals are usually taken in the dining room, but residents may choose to eat in their rooms if they prefer - it's their choice. Our chefs are experienced in catering for special dietary or cultural requirements, and residents' requests are always welcome.

Visitors

We know how important it is for residents to stay in touch with family and friends, so guests are always welcome. There are no set visiting times, and it is up to you whether you meet your visitors in the lounge, the garden or the privacy of your own room. Some homes are also able to offer visitors meals and overnight accommodation.

Financial Arrangements

Our weekly rates for Nursing and Residential Care are set by Social Services and reflect the individual care requirements for each resident.

Assistance on all financial matters for residents and their relatives is available from the manager.
