Kyle Court Care Home in Paisley, which is part of HC-One Scotland, welcomed a special visitor on Friday – Natalie Don-Innes, MSP for Renfrewshire North and West and Minister for Children, Young People and The Promise.
During her visit, residents and staff had a great time chatting with the minister about life at the care home, which plays an important role in the local community.
She also got a full tour of the 60-bed facility, including its hair salon, nail bar, hobby and memory rooms, kitchenette, pub, quiet room, sensory garden, lounge, ensuite bedrooms, and landscaped gardens.
Annmarie Speirs, Care Manager at HC-One Scotland’s Kyle Court Care Home, said: “We were delighted to welcome MSP Natalie Don-Innes to our home. Everyone had a great time, chatting and discussing key issues they care about and what actions can be taken to overcome them.”
MSP for Renfrewshire North and West & Minister for Children, Young People and The Promise, Natalie Don-Innes, said: “I was delighted to visit Kyle Court Care Home again as part of Care Home Open Week 2025.
“From the moment I walked in, it was clear just how much care and attention goes into everything the staff do. Annmarie, the Care Home Manager, leads a fantastic team who are clearly passionate about creating a welcoming and safe environment where residents feel at home. Their commitment to not only supporting residents, but also building strong relationships with their families and loved ones was evident throughout the visit.
“I particularly enjoyed hearing about the wide variety of activities available to residents – from mindfulness sessions and dancing, to arts and crafts, and even day trips on the minibus. There truly is something for everyone, and it’s wonderful to see such a person-centred approach being embraced.
“Social care workers are the backbone of our communities, playing an essential role in supporting older people with compassion and dignity. I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the staff at Kyle Court, and to all carers across Renfrewshire, for their hard work, dedication and kindness.”
