Both Mum and Dad are residents here. The staff make every effort to enable them to see each other and spend as much time together as possible even though they are in separate rooms and units. We are always greeted by the most friendly receptionist. How she remembers everyone's names and who their relatives are is astounding. Well done.
Thank you so much for the very positive feedback. The staff appreciate this.
We visit my father who is very well cared for in Auchtercrag. He is always neat and tidy, he is safe and secure and the staff are excellent, from being met at the door to going in to my father. My father is treated with dignity and respect and so are we as visitors. An excellent service throughout.

Thank you so much for your review, I will ensure that this is fed back to staff. I am so glad that your experience of Auchtercrag is so positive.
Overall, the care is satisfactory and the staff are friendly and caring. Good to receive details of activities which are held throughout the week. The bedrooms could do with a makeover.

My mother has been a resident since Aug 21. She has settled in well. Staff friendly, attentive, and will always answer questions you may have. Home very clean. Rooms while small are adequate. Food is good and nutritious my mother has gained weight since arriving. Activities for residents could be more varied but currently being looked at now that Covid restrictions are lifting. Relatives quickly and well informed by e-mail with updates and other information.

Since joining Meallmore in 2012 as a carer, I’ve been fortunate to grow my career within a company that truly values and supports its people. I’m proud to now lead the wonderful team at Auchtercrag House, having recently moved from St Modans, bringing with me years of experience and a deep passion for person-centred care.
At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to listening – to our residents and their families – so we can understand their wishes and deliver the highest quality, individualised care.
I strongly believe in leading by example, and one of my top priorities is ensuring our team feels supported, especially when it comes to learning and development. When our staff thrive, so do our residents.
Auchtercrag House has been thoughtfully designed to feel like home, with a beautiful environment that offers both comfort and security. We’re especially proud of our dedicated dementia care unit, where residents living with dementia receive care that is truly tailored to their needs in a calm, familiar setting.
We’re closely connected to our local community and work hand-in-hand with healthcare professionals to ensure we’re always providing safe, up-to-date, and confident care. Many of our team are local too, which brings a real sense of belonging and togetherness to life at Auchtercrag.
Above all, we want residents to feel at home - to live well, stay connected, and keep doing the things they love. Whether it’s enjoying a hobby, joining in on an activity, or simply sharing a laugh with our staff, life here is about making every day as meaningful and joyful as it can be.
We’d be delighted to welcome you into the Auchtercrag family.

I am currently serving as the deputy manager here at Auchtercrag, where I am tasked with driving operational excellence and delivering impactful results. With over 7 years’ experience as a Registered Nurse, I have developed a deep understanding of strategic management, team leadership and clinical oversight. My professional journey began after completing my Bachelor of Science degree from The University of the West Indies Mona in Jamaica, which laid the foundation for my career in General nursing, such as older adults and emergency nursing. Over the years, I have had various experiences that have allowed me to refine my skills, particularly in assessment, critical clinical decision-making, and coordinating nursing palliative care. Two of my best attributes are: recognising any changes/concerns in residents’ health and escalating accordingly. As well as my communication amongst residents, families, colleagues and the multidisciplinary team.
It is hoped that I will support the team in delivering person-centred care, ensuring there is clinical, operational oversight and ensuring our residents and staff perform against the quality indicators framework while living the value of Meallmore.
