About Westacres Care Home
Westacres Care Home is a residential care home for older people located in Glasgow, within the East Renfrewshire council area. The home has 38 beds and is operated by Maven Healthcare (Westacres) Limited. As a newer service, Westacres has not yet been assessed by the Care Inspectorate, Scotland's independent regulator of care services.
The home offers support across a broad range of specialisms, making it well suited to residents with complex and varied needs. These include dementia care, frailty, palliative and end of life care, physical disability or illness, acquired brain injury, neurological conditions, hearing impairment, and visual impairment. This wide range of expertise reflects a commitment to providing personalised care for residents at different stages of their journey.
Families considering Westacres can expect a care environment designed to support older people with dignity and compassion, with a formal Care Inspectorate grade expected to become available following the home's first inspection.
