Moving a parent into a care home is not always the choice you think you will end up making with them. The team at Ferendune Court have been incredible. Their care never turns off. They are constantly entertaining and making sure the residents are happy. My mum is very settled. I would highly recommend
Ferendune Court and the team here.

I cannot praise this care home enough. The facilities are spotlessly clean the decor is modern and fresh. Everyone from the manager to all the staff are so kind and caring. Always smiling chatty and the relationship they build with the residents is amazing. Communication is fantastic. I always know
what is going on. The activity programme is incredible and includes music/dance exercise/external trips to library/coffee shops/local events and further afield. Catering is excellent with menus displayed. I would book myself in.

Mostly The Ridings is a good place to live. The carers are very friendly but sometimes I wish they had more time to help me with things. My room is lovely as I can sit and watch what is going on outside.

My experience of Ferendune Court during my wife's 15 month stay has always been excellent. The care and love shown to her by all the staff especially in her final weeks and days was exceptional. Looking after residents with dementia is challenging and I was impressed by the cheerful and supportive way
my wife was cared for. I could not have wished for a more peaceful environment for her.

Mum, has now been in Ferendune Court care home for 13 months. My knowledge and experience of care homes was very limited prior to mum going in, so whilst I took a while to get used to the workings of the home mum settled in immediately. Given there are many individuals with different care needs in the
home, from my observations and dealings with many of the carers over the last 13 months they do a remarkable job of making residents feel special and in keeping them involved (There really are many activities ). The kindness, care and patience mum has received puts my mind at rest that her last years will be as good as they could be, so a big thank you to everybody involved at Ferendune.

My father has dementia and has been struggling with mobility. My mother was his sole carer at home and his health declined very quickly. I have been so impressed with all the staff at Ferendune. Initial conversations about respite care were efficient and sensitive. When my father could no longer be
looked after at home all the assessments were completed and he went into care at a crucial moment. The thought and care I have seen on every visit, with every email has been amazing. I cannot thank the staff enough.

We were familiar with this Care Home for another relative, and so chose it for my parents based on previous experience. I feel that when I approached them again the manager was friendly, reassuring about the process, very helpful and very flexible about a start date for care ie in the New Year, so held
the rooms for me. On arrival, we were met and welcomed. A little left to our own devices perhaps, but maybe this helped with a no fuss, smooth transition. I have been proactive about seeking info, passing on info and general finding out about systems etc, but everyone I have sought help from has promptly responded. I had a query about my parents being encouraged to join in a bit more and feel this will be addressed. I have at this point great confidence in the three-way relationship I hope to develop with the home., myself and my parents. PS It's too early to comment on activities, and value for money with homes - this kind of care is just genuinely expensive, so not a criticism here!

My father hasn't been there long but so far all seems fantastic. His flat is lovely and has all that he needs, he is happy with the food and love that he is always offered a drink or snack. There always seem lots for them to do which is nice to see.

My mother is extremely well looked after at Ferendune Court Care Home. She has dementia. The staff are friendly and welcoming, many of whom are local and have been working at the home for many years. They make every effort to get to know my mother and provide the best care in a happy environment. We
are very happy with the home we have chosen.
