About
West View (Monreith) Ltd runs West View, a purpose-built care home designed to resemble a domestic house, in the Dumfries and Galloway area of south-west Scotland. It provides care for people living with dementia and has 12 registered beds. The home stands in open countryside, within reach of the coastline associated with the author Gavin Maxwell.
The home places weight on each resident's individual needs and on residents feeling happy and settled, so prospective residents are offered a one-month trial period before taking up permanent residence. Care is described as respectful, discreet and sensitive, shaped around each person's needs and abilities. The Care Inspectorate, which regulates the home, has graded how well people's wellbeing is supported and the home's setting as Good, and how well care and support is planned, the staff team and the leadership as Adequate.
