Meet our friendly care team

It's the people that make our care home in Falirk the warm and welcoming place it is. Although we all come from different backgrounds and experiences, we work together as a team to ensure residents make the most of every day.

Jim Loudon

Home Manager

I chose to work at Care UK because of its reputation for delivering excellent quality care, plus the high standards set at Caledonian Court appealed to me.

Before joining the team here, I was a divisional director, so I’ve had many years of management experience. One major career highlight for me was delivering a £73.1 million hospital early and under budget.

I think it’s important for any manager to be friendly and approachable. You also need to be pretty determined but also care about what you do.

What I love most about this role is the level of interaction between the Caledonian Court team and residents. This is a safe and happy environment, and it always makes me feel good to see the support and mutual respect everyone has for each other.

Outside of work, I am a qualified football referee. I also enjoy the great outdoors and like to play golf, as well as go walking and travelling.

5 Year Service Badge

I started working at Caledonian Court as a bank staff nurse. I’d been a general nurse and worked in endoscopy before moving into working in care homes. When a permanent role came up, I applied and became a Suite Manager, and have progressed from there.

I’ve learnt so much here, including new clinical skills as well as leadership skills. I’ve learnt that, in order to develop, it’s important to be prepared to adapt and reflect on your practice. I love the way working in a care home enables you to get to know the residents. Having come from a surgical background where you don’t get to know patients, it was a refreshing change.

The residents always surprise you, when you talk to them, you’ll learn things about them and see things in them that you haven’t before. I’m looking forward to continue making a difference to their lives and driving the home forward with a great team committed to the highest standards.

I joined Caledonian Court in 2021 after looking for a change of direction in my life – it was the perfect choice. I love being able to lead activities that cater to all residents’ needs, and making sure their days are filled with fun and happiness. Making positive change to residents’ lives is such a rewarding part of my role, getting to know all about peoples’ backgrounds as well as keeping them focussed on the future and striving to achieve personal goals.

In my personal time, I love spending time with my dogs, I enjoy playing golf and I love listening to music.

Business Administrator
5 Year Service Badge

I first started working at Caledonian Court as a Lifestyle Coordinator doing work experience and was offered a weekend job here. Over time I’ve moved into the Business Administrator role, taking on more responsibility. That’s the great thing about Care UK, the organisation supports its colleagues to learn and progress and experience different roles.

The best part of my day is interacting with the residents and their loved ones, that always brightens my day. Each day brings new challenges, which offer more opportunities to learn new things. In this role it’s important to have good tech skills, as well as communication and problem-solving ability. Looking ahead, I’m looking forward to continuing to develop my skills at Caledonian Court, progressing my career and meeting new people along the way.
