Residents at one of Scotland\u2019s most luxurious care homes are stepping into a new era of wellbeing, thanks to investment in their physical health.<\/p>\n
Cramond Residence has unveiled a dedicated physiotherapy gym \u2013 transforming a lounge into a vibrant space designed to help residents stay stronger for longer.<\/p>\n
Already, the specialist equipment is proving popular with residents, helping them rebuild strength, mobility and confidence as part of the wider physiotherapy offering.<\/p>\n
Ross Bijak, General Manager at Cramond Residence, said: \u201cThe idea came directly from listening to some of our residents, and our physiotherapy partners.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re already seeing residents gain confidence, move more freely and enjoy their sessions in a way that just wasn\u2019t possible before. We could see the demand and the opportunity to do something far more impactful and really took that onboard.\u201d<\/p>\n
A standout feature of the transformed space is a \u00a310,000 state-of-the-art exercise bike, usually found in elite rehab clinics or high-performance sports centres.<\/p>\n
The ground-floor suite has now been fully refurbished in consultation with Balanced Edinburgh, who provide expert one-to-one therapy on-site. Every detail has been carefully thought of, from slip-resistant flooring and therapy bars to wall mirrors and guided physio videos.<\/p>\n
The new suite puts an end to scheduling clashes and brings clinical-quality therapy into a calm, private and bespoke setting.<\/p>\n
Judith at Balanced Edinburgh, said: \u201cWe collaborated closely with the team at Cramond to create a space that meets the needs of both residents and therapists. From the flooring and mirrors to the overall layout, every aspect has been designed to enable focused, effective therapy.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis dedicated space allows us to deliver consistent one-to-one sessions without interruption, helping residents to progress more steadily and confidently. It\u2019s already making a noticeable difference.\u201d<\/p>\n
The new space has also allowed for a wider range of session times, increased privacy and a stronger therapeutic focus \u2013 especially important for residents undergoing rehab or recovering from injury.<\/p>\n
Staff training on the new equipment is already under way, ensuring every team member can confidently support residents in getting the most from the facility.<\/p>\n
Richard Annan, Client Liaison Manager at Cramond Residence added: \u201cThis is a real leap forward for us. Residents are already using the new equipment and feeding back on how it\u2019s helping them day to day.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen providing any service, we want to ensure we are giving residents the kind of environment and support that most people wouldn\u2019t expect from a care home. We\u2019re incredibly proud of what we\u2019ve built here, and even more excited about the impact it will have.\u201d<\/p>\n
Cramond Residence offers a wide range of activities tailored for dementia care, enhancing residents\u2019 quality of life and providing relief and support through specialist facilities and trained staff.<\/p>\n
