About

Willow House Care Home is a 40-bed home in Anstruther, Fife, providing dementia and nursing care. It is run by Holmes Care Group, and its residents and staff recently won the group's Easter Art Competition, which was held across all Holmes Care homes. Their winning entry, titled 'Willow's Eggcellent Day Out', is a handmade model of a Holmes Care bus with eggshell figures seated inside and a set of chicks wearing glasses. Residents made it as a thank you to the home's bus team, who take them on outings to places of their choosing. As prize winners, residents will decide how to use the reward, whether for an outing, event or activity.

The Care Inspectorate, which regulates the home in Scotland, has graded how well care and support is planned as Good and leadership as Good. It has graded how well people's wellbeing is supported, the setting, and the staff team as Adequate.
