About
Applecross Nursing Home is a nursing home in the City of Glasgow, registered for 81 beds. Its main building is due to have a new lift installed as part of a 2025 Maintenance Improvement Plan. Visitors to the YPD Unit enter through the main building and sign in, and staff then help them reach the area they are visiting. Activities take place every day, with a monthly programme. In 2024 the home won the Specialist Service/Unit of the Year award at the Scottish Care 20th National Care Home Awards.
The home is improving its Wi-Fi to support video calls and online entertainment, and it has introduced real-time digital care planning, a new website and an upgraded staff intranet. Its IT Specialist leads key digital projects. The Care Inspectorate graded how well people's wellbeing is supported, how well care and support is planned, the staff team and leadership as Very good, and the setting as Good.
