Meet The Manager
Iain Ballatyne is Manager at Rutherglen Care Home.
It’s my great pleasure to be the home manager at Rutherglen. I’m a registered nurse (RMN) and have been in care settings since 1991 and been a care home manager for the past 20 years.
I’ve got 3 grown up daughters, a dog called Peebles and a cat named Daisy. I bring a wealth of experience to the home. Feel free to pop in and say hello or stop for a chat.
Welcome to Rutherglen Care Home in Glasgow, where our team provides person-centred care and carefully tailored care plans for Residents, helping them live life in the way they choose.
At Rutherglen, Residents lead active, happy and fulfilled lives. We encourage everyone to join our thriving activities programme and socialise in our lovely communal areas, inside and out. There’s always plenty of opportunity to enjoy life, make new friends and create new memories.
Our friendly Home includes six spacious single-storey Houses. Each one specialising in a different type of care where dedicated teams of nurses, care and support staff support Residents’ holistic wellbeing.
Rutherglen Care Home is a popular choice for families as it is located three miles south east of Glasgow and conveniently situated for public transport as well as easy access to the M74 motorway.
