Welcome to Marchglen

A purpose-built home for up to 37 residents, comprising of four houses that make up the Marchglen community. The team provide care for residents living with a learning disability, those who require complex care that requires specialist nursing such as care of a tracheostomy and care of a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (P.E.G). Currently there are residents between the ages of 22 to 90 who call Marchglen their home. Marchglen is a unique service as it offers specialist provision of care which is inclusive of younger adults.
Life at Marchglen is vibrant and full of life, our resident-led care ensures that all of our residents lives are fulfilled and full of joy and happiness.
What does care from the heart mean to the team at Marchglen?
“By getting to know the residents, the team know how to support them to do what they love. This can involve participation in arts and crafts, celebrations of special days, entertainment just for the fun of it, shopping, support to go on holiday, pet therapy and most recently involvement with local charity Cycling without Age, where residents can be taken for a spin in a trishaw bike.”

Meet the Manager
Tracy, our Home Manager at Marchglen Care Centre, shares an insight into her role and what drives her passion for care:
“With over 30 years of experience as a Nurse and Home Manager, I have dedicated my career to supporting individuals with complex needs to live the lives they choose. My primary focus has been on assisting people with cognitive and learning disabilities to maximise their independence and access to local communities.
After working in a nurse consultancy role, advising on the impact of disabilities caused by health conditions, I returned to home management. This decision was driven by my desire to reconnect directly with residents and their families as I missed the personal interaction and the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in people’s lives.
As a collaborative manager with extensive experience, I have a wealth of knowledge in supporting residents through person-centred planning. My goal remains to place residents at the heart of all decisions affecting their care. I find great joy in seeing individuals grow and live the lives they choose. It’s rewarding to watch both teams and residents gain independence and autonomy. For me, care provision must come from the heart, driven by empathy, and the passion to include both families and residents in all decisions affecting their lives.”

Getting Social
🍨🚌 Some of our residents plus our colleague Nathan had a trip in the mini bus to legendary local ice cream shop Orlandi's of Alloa yesterday. The family business have been a Clackmannanshire favourite for decades and our residents enjoyed the ice cream on what was a lovely sunny day.

🎙🎤 It was a privilege to sing once again for the wonderful Marchglen residents on Wednesday this week. I love to sing and to bring the songs I love to an audience, especially one as receptive as the place that I also work full-time as administrator. I use my 'stage surname' when singing, amending the name of where I go on holiday most years, Sa Coma, Majorca.

Last week we were visited by Gail from Creative Mojo Central Scotland who work with various community groups in arts and crafts activities, encouraging creativeness and also having fun in the process.
As you can see from the photos, our residents had a great time, along with Gail and our fantastic carers.
