  • Aaron House, Penicuik
On the outskirts of Edinburgh in Penicuik, Aaron House is a lovely historic building comprising of the old mansion house and 2 newer wings. The care home is operated by Aurem care. The care home offers care and support to older people with nursing and care needs for up to 66 individuals and is one of the most highly thought of care facilities in the area.

The service is managed over 3 areas, Cowan, Errington and Beeslack, these areas are all different and are designed to create a homely feeling. There is a well established team, some have worked in Aaron House for many years and have a great passion to provide a truly person centred service to the people that live there.

It is a large home however it remains homely and cosy with many personal touches to make it a home not a service.

Aaron house is surrounded by extensive grounds and has an enclosed safe garden for people to use as they wish.

My Mum has been in Aaron House since June 2022 with dementia. Since mum entered Aaron House I feel she has been well cared for in every way. All the staff have been very kind and very approachable. Mum is happy and contented and that puts our mind at rest. There is always some kind of entertainment
during the day to keep the residents entertained. A big thank you to all the staff for their hard work and caring.

Aaron House has truely been a life-saver for "x". Before she moved there in August 2023 she was living by herself in Pathhead. For many years she had been a Nanny to our 2 girls and as there were no relatives close by, I took over her care as her health deteriorated. With unstable diabetes and the onset
of dementia this became increasingly difficult, despite the support of community carers. Eventually she moved to Aaron House. I can honestly say this has been the best decision we could have made. She has a lovely big room filled with her own furniture and is settled and content. On her own admission it is a lovely place to live, the food is great and the staff are all very friendly and caring. From my point of view a huge weight of responsibilty has been lifted. I know she is regularly checked throughout the night and the "hypoglycaemic attacks" which frequently occur in the early hours are picked up and treated. The nurses and GP keep me regularly updated.
Reply from Angela Airlie, General Manager at Aaron HouseThank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and heartfelt review. We are truly honoured by your kind words.
We're delighted to hear that X has settled so well at Aaron House and feels comfortable, content, and at home in her surroundings. It means a great deal to us to know that she enjoys her room, the food, and-most importantly-the care and support provided by our team.
We also want to acknowledge the dedication and love you showed in supporting her for so many years. Making the decision to move someone you care deeply about into full time care is never easy, and we're so pleased that Aaron House has been able to offer reassurance and peace of mind. Knowing that her health needs are closely monitored, particularly overnight, and that you feel well informed by our nursing team and GP, is exactly what we strive for.
Thank you again for trusting us with her care and for sharing your experience. Your feedback means a great deal to us all.

The amazing staff make this home five-star. The care and compassion they have for the residents is second to none. All staff from the careers/nurses/seniors to the auxiliary staff and the activities play a part and they work as a team to provide the best of care. This care home has a very open and honest
attitude and shares everything with the relatives. The management team are a big part of the home and is always available and involved in all aspects of the resident's care and as a result, are proactive in finding solutions and ways to help with the ever-changing needs of the resident. The home is full of noise as the activities team is always trying to find new ways of entertaining the residents and keeping them alert and engaged. The whole home is always clean and fresh. I will always be thankful to all the staff for the love and care they have shown my mum over the last nearly three years and will be forever grateful we were able to get a place here.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.792)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.792) out of 10 for Aaron House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.792 for Aaron House is calculated as follows: ( (210 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 260 Ratings = 4.792
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Aaron House is based on 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
