About

Forth Bay is a care home in Kincardine, Fife, run by Care UK, with 58 registered beds. It provides nursing, respite and dementia care, and offers specialist support for people living with dementia. Each resident's care is planned around their individual needs and preferences, and families help shape matters such as meals, activities and how residents keep in touch with loved ones. Nurses receive ongoing training in areas including dementia and palliative care.

Lifestyle teams arrange activities such as gardening, baking, quizzes, music and live entertainment, tailored to each resident's interests. Support teams cover catering, maintenance, housekeeping and administration. All colleagues are trained in infection prevention and control. The Care Inspectorate, which regulates the home, graded its wellbeing support, care planning, setting, staff team and leadership each as Good.
