We both want to reiterate how our cousin is settled with you all at Coupar Angus. She started to feel, in her own words 'safe'. At the start of her long journey into care firstly at other homes, we realised how anxious she had been feeling living alone and independently for so long prior to her move
into care. Your staff are all so good with her and certainly understand her often unclear demands, but we do see that spark of humour that our cousin can display which reminds us of old and one knows that she has connected with the staff. We are both happy with the care our cousin is receiving. Her diabetes is well controlled and wish our grateful thanks to be conveyed to all staff involved in her care.

Reply from Melanie Brockway, Brand & Communications Manager at Coupar Angus Care Home

Thank you so much for your considered review. To hear your cousin feels safe, less anxious and you see your cousin 'of old'; that you, yourself are happy with their care and how she is settling, means everything to us. We will be certain to pass on your kind words to our hardworking team. Thank you once again.

My mother is a resident and I have always found the standard of care to be excellent. Staff are always courteous, caring and willing to chat over any matter. The Home is clean tidy and well looked after, communal areas are comfortable airy and the food is good. The Manager and administrator are very
professional and caring and know me by name when I visit. My mum has Dementia and her level of care is very good. The nursing staff are really good and know the folks in their care really well. They are patient and kind and when one of the female residents became very agitated and violent the staff were just so professional and gently calming her despite being lashed out at and sworn at. Lots of activities go on things like visiting ponies, School children and church which are great at making the residents feel valued. There are also meetings for family members where nothing is hidden.
It cannot be an easy job for the management and staff. The care provided is excellent.

My 90yo mother who has vascular dementia was here on a crisis placement for 7 weeks. I found this Care Home to be outstanding in its management and day to day operation. The Manager and her Home Administrator must be highly commended on their outstanding professionalism in running BCG Coupar Angus,
which is fresh, spotlessly clean and exhibits a first class, can do attitude from its friendly, motivated and extremely well mannered staff. Absolutely excellent, and in my opinion, well worthy of a CQC rating = Outstanding.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write this excellent review - high praise indeed!

I visit my friend twice a week, I always find she is very happy and the staff are very good with her. As I am only there for a few hours I don't know how everything is run. However, what I do see is that the residents are well cared for.

The staff are all friendly and welcoming with the carers being especially attentive to all their duties and ensuring the residents are well looked after. The quality of the meals is first class and portions are quite substantial and satisfying. Finally there is never any unpleasant smell in the home
which my family noticed right from the start when my wife first went into the home 2 years ago. Overall I couldn't be happier that my wife is fortunate enough to be in such an excellent standard of care home.

Mum moved into the home in September and settled in much quicker than we expected. This is because Mum feels safe and cared for. The staff are always so welcoming and also very conscious of the fact that Balhousie is now Mum's home, and they spend time finding out about her past, which she likes to
talk about. I can now be a daughter again instead of mum's carer, which was really hard, especially as mum didn't want that either. So far, so good - long may it continue.

What a lovely review - thank you for taking the time to write and submit it. It's wonderful to hear how well your mum has settled into life at Coupar Angus and how welcoming the staff have been. We're so pleased to hear you feel you can be a daughter again too. We'll make sure your kind words are passed on to the team.

My gran recently entered the care home, and she settled in straight away.
The staff are so kind, caring and helpful, which has made it much easier for her to make the move from her own home.
The daily activities help keep her mind sharp and active; she also enjoys the company of the staff and residents.

Reply from Melanie Brockway, Brand & Communications Manager at Coupar Angus Care Home

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. We're very glad to hear your gran settled in so quickly and so well - we know it can be difficult to leave your home. We'll be sure to pass on your encouraging words to our hardworking Coupar Angus team. Thank you once again.

Always impressed when I visit. The place is welcoming and the staff so friendly and caring of both myself and to the residents. My relative is always well turned out and appears content and comfortable in her big wheeled chair.
There really is nothing negative to say about any aspect of the home. I
cannot say what the feelings are of the resident as she is unable to communicate but her demeanour suggests she is happy with her care

I think Balhousie Care Home is a very good secure unit for dementia which caters well for patients' needs. My dad seemed to be settled here and took to all staff very well who were all amazing their care towards Dad was excellent. Always friendly and cheerful which means a big difference. Special mention
to the lovely lady on admin who was always cheery and helpful at all times. I couldn't have wished for a better place for Dad - unfortunately, a home closer to home was inevitable.
Thanks again to the manager and lovely staff - great team!

I thought the care home, in general, was very good. The staff were very friendly and helpful and I could not fault them. The only issue would be whether my father was in the correct wing of the care home but that is down to opinion.

My husband was admitted to Balhouise in February 2023, and we couldn't have wished for a better place and such kind and caring staff. In the four months, he was there, he was very well looked after. He was only moved from there in June 2023 when a place in another care home nearer home became available.

For the entire time of my husband's residence, care and consideration were given to his every need. The staff were kind, helpful and cheerful. When my husband died the senior night shift nurse was very supportive of me for which I was and am grateful.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.744)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.744) out of 10 for Coupar Angus Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.744 for Coupar Angus Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (136 Excellents x 5) + (35 Goods x 4) + (5 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 176 Ratings = 4.744

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Coupar Angus Care Home is based on 15 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 15 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
