Overall Experience

I have found the care in Drumdarroch House for my mum to be excellent. The staff are really kind and caring. The rooms are always spotless and the food looks very appetising. Mum is unfortunately unable to participate in the varied activities going on but really enjoyed the recent Summer fete. We admired

the lovely flowrs which have brightened up the entrance.

Drumdarroch House Care Home
from N H (Son of Resident) published on 18 September 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

I did a great deal of research before choosing Drumdarroch as a care home for my aunt and my mother, of seven other homes in the area, Drumdarroch was so fare ahead on several counts that the decision was easy.
Nothing has changed my view in the six years since. Care is compassionate. The staff are

patient and supportive, even when one of my family member residents is difficult, as she can be.
The fee is high. The peace of mind it brings the family is the benefit.

Was at a relatives meeting chaired by the Care Home Manager and she fully informed us of what has been happening recently and what the . future plans they have. The recent upgrades have made the Care Home Improvements to a very high and comfortable standard. I find the staff very approachable and

helpful and they take great care of the Residents. All food is home cooked on the premises giving a variety of choice each day. My brother in law has settled in well and I am very pleased with the care he receives. Many thanks keep up the great work.

My aunt had a lot of difficulties in accepting she needed help. She was so understand afraid and angry about losing her independence. St Columbus have been amazing at helping support both her and the family in trying to deal with how difficult the whole process has been. My aunt has now settled down

and is seeming happier. The home is immaculately clean and the staff are all very gentle and accommodating of my concerns. Of particular note are three ladies who have had a good understanding of my aunt and how best to help her.

I really can't say enough about Drumdarroch, the staff are exceptional. The genuine care and compassion they have with each and every resident shines through on every visit I make. There is nothing that is too much and great effort is made to show each resident how important they are. I have been

visiting Drumdarroch for 2years now with my Therapet so have got to see staff in action and see how they pull together as a team to make the residents have a good experience every day

Review of
St Columba's
from I T (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Mum has been a resident in St Columbas since January this year. She went into care as an emergency admission. The level of care she has received has been very good and she is now more ambulant than she was on admission. She settled very well and is very content with her accommodation and the staff.

She calls her room her "wee flat" and is full of praise for the staff. There are activities that she can attend but given her age of 96 sometimes she prefers to be in her room. That doesn't stop the staff popping in for a chat with her or a wee sing song. Every month there is entertainment which mum does go to as she loves to sing. She has a better social life than I do for which I am very grateful. She is happy and so are we as a family as the staff treat her like family.
All the staff work as a team and are constant faces for mum. Nothing is too much bother.
I knew things were going to go well when the day after mums admission I was greeted by name by all the staff. So welcoming. X x
