About

West Park Care Home is a traditionally built mansion house on the outskirts of Leslie, a village near Glenrothes in Fife. It provides residential, nursing, dementia and respite care. Most of its rooms are single, with a few larger rooms suitable for couples, and many have an ensuite. Each room has a 24-hour nurse call system and television points. Residents are encouraged to bring their own furniture, photographs and keepsakes so the room feels like their own.

The Care Inspectorate, which regulates the home in Scotland, has graded its support for residents' wellbeing, its leadership and its staff team as Very good. It has graded the planning of care and support, and the setting, as Good. Many staff have worked at the home for a long time, and the home uses Person Centred Software to tailor care to each resident.
