My mum went to Ferendune in a crisis when the deterioration in her Alzheimer’s had caused her to become unsafe at home, and trying to care for her and ensure her safety became impossible. No one could have resisted doing this during Coronavirus more than me. I was terrified of trusting others to...
In two weeks my mum looks bright, healthy, clean and smiling like I’d not seen for a while. The staff care and the manager is clearly a ‘hands on’ manager, which for me, is very reassuring and she is passionate about what she does. I’ve also felt supported with acknowledgement of my own fears and distress at allowing my mum into a care home at this time. But I have been able to visit, and I do know my mum is safe and cared for in a way I could not do for her, and I know that the decision to go to Ferendune was the right one for all of us. I would advise anyone considering Ferendune to put your trust in them.
My dad was resident here for over 6 years, until he passed away at the beginning of August this year. The home is lovely. The staff are amazing. They were not only good to my dad but to our family as well. They also looked after my mum in the last few months of her life. We are so grateful to...
Ferendune Court put the care into care home. They have a great attitude to care and individuality. My dad was very happy there which was important to us.
My mother is well looked after. She seems happy to be in the home. The staff are good to her.

The overall care is very good. The carers are mostly kind and considerate. The food is generally OK but not always as good when agency staff fill in.

Thank you for your review, which we are pleased that you are likely to recommend Ferendune Court. We welcome regular feed back. Although we do use a small amount of agency in the kitchen at present, we have recruited into our vacant hours and are hopeful that we will have a full compliment of our own team soon. We constantly monitor the quality of our food and will use this feedback to make any improvements necessary.
Very friendly staff at all levels. Always welcoming and polite. It would be nicer if it were a little easier to actually get into the home, although I appreciate that security for residents is paramount. Maybe some kind of intercom system would help. Better feedback from team leaders/management...
Very friendly staff at all levels. Always welcoming and polite. It would be nicer if it were a little easier to actually get into the home, although I appreciate that security for residents is paramount. Maybe some kind of intercom system would help. Better feedback from team leaders/management needed if specific requests/concerns are raised.
Thank you for taking the time to review Ferendune Court and we are pleased that you are extremely likely to recommend us. We try and answer the door as quickly as possible however security for our residents and staff is paramount. If there are any matters that you would like us to discuss, we would be happy to do so at a mutually convenient time.
Our father, who has dementia, has been residing at Ferendune Court home for two years, We think he is well looked after and his wishes are respected. He is treated with kindness and understanding by all the members of staff. As we (my daughters and I) do not live in the country, we are confident...
Sadly, his mental and physical health has deteriorated but the staff have reacted to his changing needs and take their lead from what his is or is not capable of doing.
The staff and management in Ferendune are extremely helpful, friendly and will, without exception go the extra mile for their residents. The facilities are very good, nice dining room, lovely food. The activities for the residents are varied and extensive should they wish to join in whilst...
Individual care is of a high quality, I would recommend Ferendune Court Care Home to anyone requiring support and care in a place of safety.
I find the staff very friendly and helpful.

Extremely happy with the care I am receiving. Since being in the home I am eating much better. I enjoy the company of the staff and the activities enable me to keep active.

Mum seems to be very happy and settled in Ferendune Court. There is clear evidence of the new home manager's efforts to make improvements to the services being provided for the benefit of residents which is good to see. Staff seem to be very friendly and caring.

The home is very clean and cared for. The bedroom I inspected was very clean and tidy. In my opinion, a home professionally managed by a great team. Looking forward to going again. All credit to you all.

I was very happy with the care my mother received at Ferendune Court. She had a lovely flat on the dementia floor where we could make ourselves a drink when visiting and we liked being able to take her out into the garden. The carers and housekeeping staff were always very friendly and helpful and we particularly enjoyed the organised activities where families could join in. Thank you to everyone at Ferendune for looking after her so well when we could no longer cope.
I can't praise the staff at Ferendune Court enough. They went the extra mile for us, nothing was too much trouble and was sympathetic to Dad's needs.
I would highly recommend Ferendune Court to anyone considering a care home.

This care home has a lovely atmosphere. Modern, light interior. Very lovely, lovely garden. Nice accommodation. My mother had her own flat on the dementia friendly floor. She found it difficult to adjust but they bent over backwards to accommodate and support her. She lived there just over 18 months. We found all the staff caring and competent. In November my mother was admitted to hospital and then returned to Ferendune at her own request for palliative care for the last two weeks of her life. The care given to her was exceptional as was the support we were given as well.
My mum moved into Ferendune Court last July after several spells in hospital. She has MS and although young at heart, she was unable to continue living independently. Finding a care home was a daunting task, but fortunately, a friend suggested going to see Ferendune. It was the best recommendation...
The staff are brilliant! They always greet me with a smile, and their warmth and care of mum is evident. She told me, not long ago, that she loved living there because everyone treats her 'like a human being'. I often phone her or arrive to hear the sound of laughing between my mum and her carers, as they share a joke. I really couldn't be happier that mum is living at Ferendune Court - and more importantly, neither could she!
My eldest sister was a resident there for nearly two years and always said the staff were "very kind".

My eldest sister was a resident there for nearly two years and always said the staff were "very kind".
She gradually became severely demented and needed 24-hour care but when we visited (always unannounced) she always appeared to be clean, comfortable and with pain-free treatment when necessary.
My other sister is a resident there now and generally appears to be happy with always a good word to say about the members of staff.
When I and other family members visit we always get a good welcome.
The home always looks clean and smells fresh.
We never visit at meal times so unable to assess food, but there are plenty of drinks.

- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
