My mother has been in Balfarg for 8 months now. I cannot fault any of the services provided to her or regarding the staff. Staff are extremely professional and sympathetic. Nothing is too much trouble for them. Everything about the home is perfect. The food is incredible, as is entertainment, which is provided daily. Hygiene and cleanliness are faultless. I would highly recommend this care home to anyone because as in the name, they care!
Some areas of the home could do with upgrading but it is always spotless.

My father has lived in the care home for four years. I can say I can only praise the care and kindness my father is shown.

Overall quite satisfied but there is one area I must bring to your attention - unfortunately, your well-being coordinator at Balfarg needs to be looked at. To be blunt, she is very poor at what she does or what she is supposed to do. I don't think that - just for an example - reading about pit...
Overall quite satisfied but there is one area I must bring to your attention - unfortunately, your well-being coordinator at Balfarg needs to be looked at. To be blunt, she is very poor at what she does or what she is supposed to do. I don't think that - just for an example - reading about pit ponies and shetland ponies verbatim from a book or a sheet of paper is acceptable. Her activities have, at the most, five people attending and she actually sends some people asleep. (Not enough room to go into detail here) The other thing is the poor condition of the garden and seating in the garden.
My experience is very good and the staff are extremely helpful.

This care home has such a welcoming atmosphere. Nothing is ever too much trouble for them. The staff are all extremely helpful and very polite. The personal care is also of a very high standard. My Gran was very apprehensive going into a care home as she was still independent in her mind but not physically able. She is extremely happy and has settled in very well. She loves the entertainment and loves to blether.

Having visited a lot of homes, I could not be happier to find this one. Balfang is a fantastic place for my dad and the staff really care.

Again all staff very pleasant although some need to be more pleasant, one in particular, however, can't fault anything else.

My grandad spent a short time here through respite care. I can't fault the staff as they met all the needs for my grandad. The activities coordinator was very kind and welcoming to my grandad. He preferred to be alone and in his room but the coordinator would spend a lot of time with him. My grandad was diabetic and the diet he was on was strict and the chef met the needs for him overall he loved staying here and as a family were very happy with the care.

The staff at Balfarg provide excellent care, however, it is evident that an increase in staffing levels would be highly beneficial to the residents. At present, staff turnover is high due to carers becoming frustrated by being unable to dedicate the time to provide the excellent standard of care they strive to give, considering the weekly cost it should be no issue for HC1 to employ extra staff.
Thank you for your excellent feedback about the care at Balfarg Care Home. We do carefully monitor staff turnover and staff satisfaction and also assess Resident dependency so we can provide the appropriate level of staffing
Find Balfarg Care Home very good, clean, can't fault any of the staff or management. Would recommend to other relatives looking for a care home. All staff work hard.
