About
Galashiels Nursing Home is a care home in Galashiels, Scottish Borders, providing dementia care for people in a 35-bed registered setting. It is regulated in Scotland by the Care Inspectorate, which has graded the home Good across all five areas it assessed: how well people's wellbeing is supported, how well care and support is planned, the setting, the staff team and leadership.
Families considering the home can use these grades as an independent starting point, alongside their own visits and questions about how the home meets an individual's needs.
