Feel better, with BupaSituated in Dalmuir, a residential area of Clydebank, Hill

View comprises five separate houses – three for nursing

care and two for nursing dementia care. As you’d expect

from Bupa, our standards of care are second to none, and

we employ highly trained registered nurses and care

assistants who provide 24-hour professional support.

We care for each resident in accordance with their

individual care plan – under the supervision of a

dedicated home manager. It means you’ll feel better

knowing every resident is extremely well looked after,

based on their individual needs and preferences.

A warm, homely environmentWe want our residents to feel very much at home. So we

keep rules and regulations to a minimum – and take care

to create comfortable, homely surroundings.

We believe in striking a balance, between providing

support when it’s needed, and helping residents maintain

their independence – and we encourage each resident to

lead a full and active lifestyle wherever possible.

The staff are really helpfuland cheerful

Our homeA modern, purpose-built home, Hill View has been

carefully designed to create a pleasant, well-equipped

home for elderly people. Each house has a comfortable,

well furnished lounge, conservatory and dining area

which provide a meeting place for residents to relax and

entertain guests. Our activities take place here, and they

are also a place to socialise, watch television or simply

spend some quiet time. We know how important it is to

keep in touch with friends and family, so our door is

always open to guests. All houses have access to the

large landscaped gardens and patio area, there are

raised flower beds and window boxes so residents who

wish to help out in the garden can do so.

Our 150 single en-suite bedrooms are all attractively

decorated to a high standard and have views overlooking

the gardens. Each room has a telephone and aerial

point, thermostatic radiators, smoke detectors and a

24-hour nurse call system. To make their rooms feel as

much like home as possible, we encourage residents to

bring in their own belongings, such as pictures and

ornaments.

Appetising freshly prepared mealsMeals are an important part of the day, and our chef

creates a wide range of balanced, nutritious dishes,

prepared daily using only the freshest ingredients. A

typical menu might include porridge or cereal in the

morning, soup and sandwiches at lunchtime, chicken and

mushroom pie served with spring cabbage in the evening

and fruit flan with cream for dessert. Residents can

choose to dine in the home’s traditional dining rooms or

in their own rooms if they prefer. We also serve tea or

coffee mid-morning and mid-afternoon, and drinks in the

evening – and we cater for all tastes and diets.

Interesting daily activitiesAt Hill View, our activities organiser ensures there’s

always something enjoyable to do – everything from arts

and crafts, to film show afternoons, bingo and gentle

exercise. Residents have plenty of opportunity to

pursue hobbies and interests. We have a hairdressing

salon on-site with a hairdresser who visits twice a week.

Local entertainers such as singers and musicians visit the

home regularly. We also arrange trips to local places of

interest, such as walks along the canal and regular visits

to churches of all denominations.

Types of stayAt Hill View, we offer several types of stay depending on

the level of support required – we provide long- term

care for those who need daily nursing perhaps due to

age or an on-going medical condition, respite care to

enable carers to take a much deserved break and

convalescent or post-operative care for residents

recovering from an accident, illness or operation. We

also offer nursing care for residents with all levels of

confusion, mainly with an Alzheimer’s diagnosis and

other dementia related conditions.

Bupa’s commitmentAt Bupa, we believe in the highest standards of care and

comfort, provided in a way that is personal to every

resident. We aim to achieve this by employing

dedicated, well-trained staff and providing comfortable,

homely surroundings. Bupa is a health and care

company that does not have any shareholders. As a

result, it can reinvest all of its profits into the business

and focus on its customers.
