Care Homes Owned by Dundee City Council

My sister resides in Janet Brougham House, and today we had a celebration in the home for her 94th birthday. I would like to thank the staff for all their efforts to make it special for my sister. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank them all; the kitchen staff, cleaners, carers, and managers for trying their very best to look after my sister. It can be a challenging job, but they do their very best. We ,as a family, really appreciate their efforts. Thank you all very much .

This care home has just been down graded by care inspectorate from excellent to adequate. Care inspectorate upheld all 4 complaints against council run care home. DHSCP appealled however care inspectorate dismissed appeal and kept all 4 complaints as upheld.

My Aunt resided in this care home for almost 11 years until she passed in Nov 25. She loved her time there and was extremely well cared for by a staffing team that became family to her. Her care was so good that when my parents began to decline I fought to get them rooms there. It is a very much sought after home and has a long waiting list. Staff create such a welcoming atmosphere. My father stayed there for a short time until he passed in hospital and my mother is living there now. We are updated regularly by telephone check in with the staff. They are always available to chat about her care. I have another Aunt living here too. I think this is testament to the care they provide. I wouldn't put my parents into a facility that wasnt going to treat them with kindness, dignity and respect. It is a fabulous place for your relative to live. I would recommend 100% to anyone.

Cannot recommend Janet Brougham and the staff highly enough,

My Mum has been attending Oaklands Day Centre five days a week and I cannot praise the staff enough for their care and dedication that my mum receives when she is at Oaklands. Due to Covid 19, the day centre has been closed for 9 months. This is an amazing service and I hope the centre will open in the near future. Thank you again to all the Care workers who dedicate their time to helping and stimulating my Mum and all the other clients who attend. Very much appreciated.

I cannot recommend Oakland enough - I think it is Dundee's best-kept secret. The care and professionalism of the staff is excellent. My mother loved her days there and always came home having thoroughly enjoyed her day - what more could you ask for.
