Wheatlands Care Home

from H M (Sister of Resident) published on 29 January 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It's fair to say reviewing a home is not easy, even unfair while a care crisis continues, fund shortages, increased costs, exasperated by carer shortages, no matter how good, it's not home. People enter care for all reasons, fundamentally it's because they can't be cared for at home. Our sister for
respite. Our reaction re. care reports was "no" but it was recommended we should give them a chance. They were honest re. past issues, progress being made, no glossing over historic issues. We are happy to say our sister was well looked after, comfortable and respected, Staff friendly with queries dealt with. Sadly it was not the long-term place for her, but we had complete peace of mind while a home was found. One niggle, most residents choose to remain in their rooms, our sister too, meaning call buttons seemed to go off regularly which must be wearing for staff and residents. Do not be afraid to give them a chance as they continue on an upwards trajectory of being a very good care home!
Reply from Melanie Brockway, Brand & Communications Manager at Wheatlands Care Home

Thank you so much for writing your review for us. It's really helpful and important to read, what is obviously, an informed and frank perspective on the challenges faced in the sector, and doesn't, like our discussions with yourself, shirk from the difficulties that can take place. In that context, to then read how happy you have been with your sister's care, despite, as you say, not being her long-term home, is even more encouraging and throws the dedication of our team into stark relief. That you received honesty and transparency, had complete peace of mind, and your sister was well looked after, comfortable and respected, says everything, and is exactly what we strive for. Thank you once again for taking the time to write this - we will make sure your review is passed on to our hardworking staff.

My mother entered Balhousie Wheatlands' home in February 2018. My mother passed past away this past week five years later. I wish to commend the staff for their care and support throughout the time, particularly in her final days they made a very difficult time for myself and my family bearable. I can
honestly say that being in their care added years to my mother's life. The kindness, help and support were wonderful. A special thanks to the Administrator of the care home.

I am very happy with the care my mother receives at Balhousie Wheatlands. She settled in well and enjoys the meals and takes part in many of the activities on offer. She appreciates the fact that she can see countryside views from the conservatory and can watch the comings and goings of the staff and
visitors. Her overall well-being has improved since becoming a resident at Wheatlands.
Reply from Melanie Brockway, Brand & Communications Manager at Wheatlands Care Home

Thank you for such a fabulous review. We appreciate you taking the time to submit it for our hardworking team. It means everything to them to see that their care makes a difference. To know your mum is settled, and getting involved with the activities, and even more so, that you can see the improvement in her well-being, will be a huge boost to our staff. We'll be sure to pass that on. Thanks once again.

I am happy with the care my parent has been given over the time spent as a resident at Balhousie Wheatlands. The staff are helpful and understanding. My mother appreciates the wide range of social activities and the benefits and stimulation these provide is evident. She also looks forward to and enjoys
all her meals.

My mum was in Wheatlands for three months.
The staff were very welcoming to Mum and all the family.
The care was good.
My only concern would be that there needs to be more staff to meet patients' needs.

I have been a regular visitor to Balhousie Wheatlands for over three years and continue to be highly satisfied with the excellent standard of care and attention given to residents. The devotion and professionalism of all staff are plain to see, and despite the many challenges faced during the pandemic,
resident safety and comfort were well cared for. I recently attended one of the regular relative's meetings and was impressed by the very positive and enthusiastic effort of management and senior staff to further improve resident experiences with resident-centred initiatives. Staff training is also high on the priority list.

My mum is cared for here with great dignity and my family are so reassured that mum is well looked after, considering her needs are complex, the staff have fantastic experience and training and very helpful. Families visiting their loved ones notice the exemplary work the staff do, they are a great

My Mum has been a resident at Wheatlands in Bonnybridge for over four years. She deteriorated quite quickly with dementia and was placed in Wheatlands. The care and support given by the staff are fantastic, mum went from being scared, worried, confused and anxious to happy and content within the first
month. Her dementia is severe, she doesn’t recognise anyone anymore and can’t talk. The staff treat her with kindness, her face lights up with big smiles when she sees them and they treat her like family. I have no hesitation in recommending the home to other families who are worried about placing a loved one in care, a traumatic decision at the best of times! I honestly believe that the only reason Mum is still with us is due to the staff at the home, the love and affection shown for the residents make all the difference as they are part of her family as far as she is concerned.
Reply from Gillian Drummond, Brand and Communications Manager at Wheatlands Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to write and review Wheatlands. We as a company and Wheatlands as a home couldn't ask for better than to hear your mum is now happy and content. We'll pass this straight on to our Wheatlands staff.

My mum has been in Balhousie Wheatlands for a few years. I have always been really happy with the way my mum is cared for. She is always kept clean, her clothes are spotless and her hair is always kept tidy. The staff keep me up to date with any issues my mum might have. The staff are exceptional from
the nurses to the cleaners etc. I couldn’t have picked a better home for my mum. I’d give them 10 out of 10.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The management welcome and are receptive to feedback about resident's care and services provided. They respond very quickly. The staff work very hard at caring for residents, always with a smile and comforting dialogue. Wheatlands provide a range of activities for residents. The rooms and general decor
looks a bit tired in some areas mainly due to the facility being an old converted property. Wheelchair access in room and toilet could be improved. Overall I feel satisfied that my relative is in a safe/secure environment supported by very approachable staff and management who provide service with a smile.

Many thanks for the review which helps us to improve the services we provide. The home is currently undergoing a period of refurbishment and hopefully this will help to improve the facilities even further.

My Gran has been resident in the care home for one year. At the time she had been recently bereaved. The staff supported her through this difficult period in her life as she had been married to my papa for 57 years and she missed him terribly.


The home's Dementia Ambassadors programme enabled my

Gran to live her life to the fullest and she benefited greatly from the innovative Woodland experience which she hopes to attend again this year.
