Review from Graeme H (Son of Client) published on 11 March 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Eidyn Care have been my father's carers for the last 6 months and we are extremely pleased with the level of care and service provided. Every member of staff goes out their way to provide a top class professional service at all times and in most instances deliver "over and above" expectations.
As well as providing the necessary care elements, every carer has taken the time to get to know my father and he looks forward to their visits and social interactions

From a family viewpoint I'd like to say a big thank you for helping us step back a little bit and regain some personal time with full confidence that my father is in good hands.

Overall Experience

Sadly, my mother is now no longer cared for by Eidyn and double sadly as she only had them for part of 2025. while being cared for by a plethora of unfit organizations that infect home care in Edinburgh. therefore, i clearly state that Eidyn care is not only the gold standard but the only standard in my experience. use them !!!!

Reply from caroline simpson, Registered Manager at Eidyn Care Edinburgh

Thanks Lance for your review - we really appreciate your kind words. It was a pleasure caring for your mum, and we're so glad you felt happy with the support our team provided. We wish you both all the very best as she settles into her new home. The girls are looking forward to visiting her for a wee cuppa!

My wife has received care from Eidyn Care for over seven years. In all this time the quality and standard of care has been excellent and the staff providing the care have always maintained a highly professional, cheerful and literally caring service. We regard visits by carers as part of an ongoing friendship where mutual interest in families, holidays, music and so on can be enjoyed. If asked we would not hesitate to highly recommend Eidyn Care.

Overall Experience
We discovered Eidyn Care in August 2019, and simply haven’t looked back! They are the best care company that I know of. All the girls are extremely kind, caring, honest, helpful, and reliable. With the onset of Covid recently, the management team have been excellent. It has been very useful to receive updates and know of the constant changes that were needed.

My Mum is very happy with all the girls and knows that she is extremely fortunate to have their assistance. We, as a family also feel very blessed, as it is enabling Mum to remain in her own home. Thank you Eidyn Care.

Review from Sue S (Sister-in-law of Client) published on 20 September 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Eidyn Care has provided exceptional care for my sister-in-law, who lives alone and needs 24-hour care. The carers work together as a team to ensure her needs are met and to provide a range of stimulating activities. They have been able to adapt very quickly to her changing care needs, and the family feel very much supported. For example, they have arranged care at short notice where family illness has meant extra cover was needed. Communication is excellent, and we know that we can easily contact them if needed. Their management of the Covid situation has been excellent with cover continuing throughout. I would not hesitate to recommend them.

I know when I'm out and about, my husband is well cared for. He enjoys being taken out by the carers for his hot chocolate. So far, we have met five carers, all bringing the same level of care. I come home to find lots of wee jobs done, carpets vacuumed, washing machine on, dishwasher emptied, and a content husband.

Review from Kirsten A (Daughter of Client) published on 17 May 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
During the Pandemic, it has been a lifeline for my mother to have carers from Eidyn Care. We live around 90 minutes away and supporting mum daily would be challenging, particularly as my husband is going through cancer treatment. On the occasions when we have met with carers, usually when delivering meals for mum, we've both been extremely impressed by their care and professionalism.
My mother very much enjoys the company of the carers and the support they provide. It gives her a focus and also a 'raison d'etre.' It's encouraging to hear that they are supporting mum leaving her flat for short walks.

Our thanks to all at Eidyn Care.

Rebecca McLennan Job Title: Clinical Director Joined: 2016
Rebecca McLennan

Rebecca, our Clinical Director, started her career in the Financial Services sector, and following the birth of her first son, realised that her vocation was helping people and retrained as a Nurse in 2009. Rebecca specialised in Oncology during the last year of her training at the Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, and after qualifying with her degree in Nursing, she remained there. Working on a busy oncology ward has provided Rebecca with many years of practical experience in delivering care to people who are at their most vulnerable, giving her the skills and insight to realise that helping people to live with dignity and respect at the end of their life was something Rebecca was passionate about pursuing.

In 2011, following the birth of her second son, Rebecca changed direction and moved to work at St Columba’s Hospice, Edinburgh, enhancing her skills and experience. It was this experience that prompted Rebecca to form Eidyn Care, along with her husband Andrew, to enhance services already provided in the community, allowing more people to stay in their own homes when faced with life-limiting difficulties. Rebecca recognises the need for people to feel comfortable within their own home environment, reducing the pain, stress and anxiety for clients and their loved ones.

Andrew McLennan Job Title: Operations Manager Joined: 2016
Andrew McLennan

Andrew has run his own successful business consultancy for many years, specialising in Information Technology (IT), managing large teams across the world and multi-million-pound budgets.

Andrew brings to Eidyn Care a vast amount of business knowledge ensuring we have the right systems and processes in place to support the delivery of quality care, allowing caregivers to have access to real-time information about their clients which means they can focus on their client and provide the best care for them.

As Operations Manager Andrew looks after the administration of the business, using technology to streamline the scheduling of the carers and manage payroll and invoices.
