Care Homes Owned by Each Other Care in Angus

From the moment we walked through the door, we knew Benholm would be an ideal home for mum to settle into. The building is light, bright, fresh and airy, is exceptionally well maintained and spotlessly clean, with multiple inviting communal areas. The bedrooms are generous in size, homely, and are well equipped for any needs an older person may have. The staff are kind, attentive and caring, both to the residents as well as to their family and friends. Although mum was only at Benholm for a short time, we were delighted with her care throughout and we were very grateful that the nursing staff were quick to notice her deterioration in health and took all the appropriate action swiftly and sensitively, keeping us informed throughout. Our only regret is that mum didn't have more time to fully benefit from all of the care, homely surroundings and activities that Benholm has to offer. Thank you to all of the wonderful staff at Benholm.

I have stayed at Benholm Care Home for respite four times and on each occasion the staff have all been most friendly and helpful.Any additional items I required for the rooms,which were ideal,were provided without delay.The daily activities provided were most suitable.

Benholm, to me, is the dream home for anyone in need of residential care. Again, the staff are incredibly caring towards my mum and she is happy and considers Benholm home, which is a huge relief. Over and above this, the staff extend their care to include relatives and I always feel welcome.

Can not fault the care and attention my mum has had since she went into the home in March. Every carer and nurse has been excellent in every way. My mum is so happy to be there, they all make sure there are lots going on between music, bringing in animals, weaving, painting stones, always something to keep the residents alert and happy. Well done Benholm Care Home.

Hopefully, he will interact with activities.

My dad is well looked after at Benholm. He has settled in fine, and there is lots for him to get involved with. The activity programme that they have is fantastic and very well attended by the other residents.

Delighted with the care our dad gets from this amazing care home. Staff are the best of the best, we visit on a daily basis, and they always have something going on in their beautiful lounge, and the music seems to really lift all the residents, just like one big family. Really want to thank everyone one of you, you really do all care and work so hard.

My mum is much happier since coming into care. Mum is more content, has made friends and enjoys the in-house entertainment. I feel more relaxed knowing my mum is safe and well cared for and the staff are all approachable.

I thank them all so much for their kindness and care.

Best Care Home you could get. Staff cannot do enough for you. Happy that my Mum is in Benholm and getting well looked after. Management is very good also. Definitely a home-from-home experience. They have lots of activities within the home daily.

My client moved into Benholm Care Home in December 2021. Although in her 80s, suffering from dementia and having lived alone for a long time, she has settled in well. The staff are very caring and accommodating. She very much enjoys living at Benholm and it is very much her home now. Thank you to all of the staff.

Since entering Benholm Care Home my husband has settled down and is happy and content. The staff and management of the home are excellent and make a point of ensuring residents are well looked after and cared for. I couldn’t ask for more than knowing he’s getting the best care possible.

Our dad has been here since January 2022 and we could not be happier with the care being provided. The staff are so caring and attentive not only to our Dad but to the whole family and give very good support to our Mum who likes to visit on a daily basis. We are so happy and reassured that we chose Benholm to care for him and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to anyone.

My mum has been a resident in Benholm for 2+ years. I have been extremely happy with the care given throughout. It must have been so difficult for all over the Covid restrictions, but the staff were absolutely fabulous, becoming the family to her when we couldn’t visit. I can never thank them enough!! Sadly she died a few days ago but the care was amazing. She was comfortable and so well looked after. And the help we got clearing out her room was astonishing. Thank you so much, everyone. So appreciated

Sadly my mother only had 4 days in the care of the staff at the Benholm, having been moved from NHS care, for end-of-life/palliative care before she passed away. For the four days, she was in the care of the staff at the Benholm, I cannot praise highly enough the care and the attention provided both to my mother but to myself as a family member spending time just sitting with my mother. My mother was asleep most of her last few days, but both nursing and care staff ensured she was comfortable and had anything she needed, and in my opinion, helped her pass away as peacefully as she could given her illness. I will admit to being very apprehensive about her moving from NHS, but all of my fears were unfounded. Sadly I didn't have time to meet with all the staff and get to know them, but those I did meet and speak to were very caring and helpful.

The level of care my dad has received since arriving at Benholm has been fantastic. He was very confused and agitated due to his dementia and the staff have been patient, caring and. understanding. They have worked with myself and my siblings to settle him in and make Benholm his home, which is what it is now. The staff go out of their way to keep him safe, happy and very well cared for. We all know he is settled and that if there was a problem or question they would contact us immediately.

My father has been in Benholm Care Home for six months. When he went in, he was very unwell but with care and kindness, his health and mobility improved significantly. We are kept well-informed of any problems ie falls, lack of appetite, changes to medication, infections etc. His health is failing again and everyone, including domestic staff, carers, nursing assistants and managerial staff, have been friendly, attentive, caring and kind. Nothing is too much trouble and they always have a smile on their faces. My grateful thanks to them all.

Although she had lost her mobility, staff ensured she was taken outdoors whenever weather allowed, which she loved so much.

Overall good. Staff appear caring and treat residents with dignity. Residents appear clean and tidy. My mother-in-law says the meals are poor as she is unable to chew meat - poor choice. She says she is always hungry. True or dementia? Unable to answer as I have not seen the meals.

My uncle was in Benholm Care Home and the staff couldn't do enough for him. The girl that does the entertainment is very good and she always has plenty of things for the people to do and they all join in. Can't fault any of the staff.
