Activities at Four Hills Care Home
Our activity and lifestyle programme is arranged for all our residents to participate in and is updated regularly based on ideas from our residents group during our resident forum. Our Resident of the Day strategy ensures each person receives at least one day each month where the focus is all about them.
We have a monthly concert and to date this is appreciated and enjoyed by most residents. The Four Hills Taverns is open for business every Friday afternoon and is an area where residents and staff socialise, hold pub quizzes and partake in a little refreshment.
The team at Four Hills try hard to meet everyone's needs and encourage all residents and their families to join in the fun.

Staff, residents and guests commemorated this special occasion with live music, cocktails, mocktails, cakes and delicious nibbles.
Four Hills has built up excellent reputations within its local communities. The home regularly holds events and activities for its residents and surrounding neighbours. Four Hills was built 30 years ago on the site of an old ironworks in the middle of a thriving local community.
General Manager, Eleanor said: “It is important to recognise the hard work of our staff here at Four Hills. For the past 30 years, we have provided a caring home for our residents as well as the best possible environment for our staff. Today not only enables us to celebrate their hard work, but it's also an opportunity to thank the residents, their relatives and friends who have made Four Hills such a loving home.”
Much loved nurse retires after 22-years
After almost 22 years of continuous service at Four Hills in Glasgow, much-loved Charge Nurse, Margaret Grandison has decided to retire.

Everyone at the home has very fond memories of Margaret and she will be sadly missed.

Riding for the Disabled
Our residents thoroughly enjoyed a trip to our local Riding for the Disabled stables, we were introduced to all the horses and told what their routines were, we even had the opportunity to get them out and give them a groom.
All the residents found being around the horses to be very therapeutic and made them all happy, even the residents who were apprehensive to touch them at first were soon wanting to touch and groom them.
Mary had the best time ever as being around the horses and grooming them reminded her of her childhood pony trekking with her family and it’s how she meet her husband.
