She is very frail and can very easily fall.
The staff are kind and caring and I'm a great fan of the manager.
I'm not surprised the recent inspection report gave high grades.
To sum up, kindness, caring and clean.

Very clean, friendly and the staff are great with patients and relatives. One of the best homes I've been in. Food for residents is excellent. Well kept premises.

While my mother, aged 94 years has been in The Birches, Crieff for 2 weeks, she has been very well looked after by all members of staff. They do their work but still have time to chat. The staff had to deal with a bleeding leg on her arrival. She'd caught it on the car door! This was sorted out...
While my mother, aged 94 years has been in The Birches, Crieff for 2 weeks, she has been very well looked after by all members of staff. They do their work but still have time to chat. The staff had to deal with a bleeding leg on her arrival. She'd caught it on the car door! This was sorted out very quickly and her nurse was called. Mother was not happy about moving out of her own home for 2 weeks while a new boiler was fitted but the care she has been given helped her to settle as much as is possible at her age. All the staff are kindly as well as professional. This is reassuring for residents and relatives.

The staff in here are a credit to your company. Too many staff to mention as they have been good and kind to my mum. But would like to mention the maintenance guy, new manager and not forgetting most important person in any care home, the assistant manager has been great.
Both greeting and farewell - warm. Nothing but praise from me. Everyone - very kind, would definitely return.
