Knowesouth Nursing Home
Knowesouth, close to the Scottish Borders town of Jedburgh, is a residential nursing home dedicated to the specialist care of older people with dementia. The impressive country house has 28 beds and is surrounded by mature parkland and gardens.
The therapeutic approach of care at Knowesouth is achieved through the close working relationships between care and nursing staff at the home together with Community Psychiatric Nurses, local GPs and the dedicated geriatric care team at the Borders General Hospital and Couldshields Assessment Unit. We pride ourselves on our strong relationships with families and friends of our residents and welcome visitors daily between the hours of 11am and 8pm.
Our residents are encouraged to take part in a range of hobbies and past-times arranged by our dedicated activities co-ordinator who plans a varied programme for seven hours everyday. In the grounds of Knowesouth there is Oakbank, a new development of 18 one bedroom apartments, for older people with a range of care packages available as and when they are needed.
