My relative has experienced a consistently high quality of care. The leadership is proactive and responsive. The residence is clean and homely. Food and fluids are supervised, recorded and given with support and encouragement. Residents are encouraged to take part in activities appropriate to their
abilities. Despite in their 91st year, my relative is able to access the first floor by stair lift with support and mobility is encouraged by supported use of a zimmer. There are regular, documented, nightly checks and timeous alterations made to risk assessments as personal circumstances change. National Care Reports confirm the very high standard I have witnessed over three years. I have found the staff to be friendly, kind, hard working and part of a good person centered team.

My elderly father who is 91+ years old was placed in a room on the first floor despite having really poor mobility (uses a walker at all times). When alarm was set off for help no one attended to help him. Family witnessed poor service and Care Home Manager refused to answer calls. The food was extremely
poor and cold. My father was left unsupervised when he was eating, despite the staff being told he can choke. Emergency arose during family visit on Saturday 8th March which necessitated taking our father out of the home as he was so distraught at being left to suffer on his own in his room on the first floor, with no assistance. My father was in the Home for less than 24 hours, it was meant to be respite for myself as a carer for almost 20 years. I even asked a member of Staff if my father had been drugged as he was far from being his usual self. For anyone considering this Home please ensure you have done your own research and choose wisely for your loved one!

My husband has been in other care homes in Perth, all disastrous, poor care and simply money making. I, at last, found the wonderful St Ninian's Care Home through a friend. My husband is now finishing his life with loving dignified and expert care. I am so grateful to them.

Clean, smells fresh, small and homely.
All the residents look well cared for, meals can be individualised as I have witnessed on many occasions.
The managers are approachable, friendly and very obliging. The home is well maintained with nice furnishings. The lady I visit is very happy there.

Current Review Score: 6.5 (6.542)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 6.5 (6.542) out of 10 for St Ninian's Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 3.1 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.5 out of 5 from 1 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 3.087 for St Ninian's Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) + (11 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 23 Ratings = 3.087

  • b) 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 3.455 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for St Ninian's Care Home is based on 1 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 = 3

    • ii) 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 11 registered maximum number of service users is 2.2. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 2.2 = 0.455

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
