Residents at Etive House Care Home, we believe, should be able to make the most of every day of their stay. Our dedicated team works hard to provide a variety of options so that residents have all they need to live a full and varied life.

Weekly events such as sing-alongs, pottery and movie days are planned by our Activity Coordinator, to be both exciting and accessible. For those living with memory loss, our Activities Programme offers a variety of activities and alternative therapies, such as memory boxes and reminiscing. We also organise a number of trips to popular attractions in Benderloch and enjoy building relationships with the local community.

Every day, we work hard to create an environment in which residents can enjoy positive experiences. We place a high value on our residents’ ability to make decisions and manage their own lives, and we endeavour to provide them with as much independence as possible. Thanks to our friendly activities team, residents have numerous opportunities each week to participate in a variety of exciting activities, either alone or in a group environment.
