Culduthel Care Home

Overall Experience

My brother needed respite care after failing to cope at home when he came out of hospital. Culduthel Care Home were very helpful when we approached them and took him in at short notice between Christmas and New Year. He was made very welcome by all the staff, who genuinely seemed to be happy in their

work. They helped him recover so that he was able to go back into his home after a couple of months.

Reply from Cameron, Culduthel Care Home at Culduthel Care Home

Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your brother's experience at Culduthel Care Home. We understand how important it is to find the right support, especially during challenging times, and we're so pleased we could provide the care, comfort, and encouragement he needed to recover and return home. Our team takes great pride in creating a welcoming and supportive environment for all our residents, and it's wonderful to hear that their dedication and positivity made a difference during his stay. We truly appreciate your feedback and wish your brother all the best as he continues his recovery at home. If we can ever offer support in the future, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Overall Experience

I cannot express how grateful I am to the staff and management team for the care given to my mum over the last year and up to her passing in early January 2025. Communication was excellent, and her coordination of the care between staff and the GP was excellent. Not only did they care for my mum, but

they cared for us as a family.

Reply from Cameron, Daviot Care Home at Daviot Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to share your experience. We are truly sorry for your loss, and it means so much to hear that our colleagues were able to provide care and comfort to both your mum and your family during such a difficult time. Ensuring that residents receive compassionate, well-coordinated care is at the heart of what we do, and we are so pleased that you felt supported throughout. Your words will be shared with the team, who will appreciate knowing they made a difference. Please know that you and your family are in our thoughts, and if there is anything we can do to support you, we are always here.

Overall Experience

My father has been a resident of Culduthel Care Home for the past 3 months, during which time I have been very happy with his care. The staff are very friendly and nothing is too much trouble. There is an extensive range of activities to suit all capabilities and I have accompanied my father to many

of these, which he has enjoyed. The food is varied and nourishing and should he not want anything on the menu there is nothing the staff are not able to provide for him. He eats well and has gained weight in the time he has been there.
The surroundings are beautiful, furnished to the highest standard and there is always tea, coffee and soft drinks available to visitors, along with delicious home baking.
I am always made to feel welcome and can visit any time and stay as long as I like.
I cannot speak highly enough of Culduthel Care Home and feel extremely lucky that my father is now a resident there.

Reply from Cameron, Culduthel Care Home at Culduthel Care Home

Overall Experience

My cousin has been in St Olaf Care Home since April. It took a while for her to settle and for the staff and her to get to know each other.
I have been happy with the way I have been kept informed of events. I always feel welcomed and she is far more settled now.
She gets out for walks, weather and

staff availability permitting, which she enjoys.

Reply from Kath Allan, Care Home Manager at St Olaf Care Home

Thank you for your kind words, I will pass this onto all the staff. Your cousin has settled in well and particularly enjoys our outdoor activities and walks.

Overall Experience

Really appreciated being included in some of the Christmas entertainment that was organised in December. Thoroughly enjoyed the pantomime and party. My sister appreciated being able to attend the Christmas lunch.
All the activities we went to started earlier than was indicated on the information

sent out/weekly planner. Now we know this happens we'll try and be more organised for future events. Both of us travel a distance so quite a bit of planning is involved and timings are also dependent of traffic and road conditions.

Reply from Cameron, St Olaf Care Home at St Olaf Care Home

Thank you for your kind words about St Olaf Care Home. We're delighted to hear that your spouse received a warm welcome and settled comfortably after her transition from the hospital. We take great pride in providing a supportive, well-equipped environment to meet our residents' increasing needs. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and means so much to our team.

Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident in Redwoods for nearly two years. In that time I have seen a truely remarkable team of people at work. They have put my mother's well being at the heart of everything they do. Protocols are followed, but the extra mile every member of staff goes to is special. They are

cheerful and compassionate and from my experience, the very best.

Reply from Cameron Hunter, Deputy Manager at Redwoods Nursing Home

Overall Experience

Dad moved to St Olaf Care Home in December following 30 months in another care home where he received very poor care. The decision to move was not easy but vital for him. At the point of his move Dad was non verbal and bed bound.
Thanks to Social Work and the Manager at St Olaf for assessing Dad and

supporting his move.
Within 24 hours of his move Dad was at a Christmas party enjoying the celebrations of a loving, caring environment. He has a fabulous room. We never thought that Dad would be out of bed again.
The staff at St Olaf are just exceptional. The environment is lively, homely and supportive. Previously, Dad had lost a lot of weight and was very frail. Within an hour of arrival at the home Dad was receiving a bowl of home made soup and since has enjoyed fabulous home made meals with choices provided. Dad has put on weight and is now talking, participating in activities and enjoying a loving and caring environment. We cannot thank the staff of St Olaf enough.

Reply from Cameron, St Olaf Care Home at St Olaf Care Home

Thank you for sharing your incredible story about your dad's journey at St Olaf Care Home. We're deeply moved to hear about his transformation since joining us and are so pleased he is thriving in a loving, supportive environment. It's heartwarming to know he is enjoying his meals, participating in activities and regaining strength and confidence. Your kind words about our staff and the homely atmosphere mean so much to our team. Thank you for trusting us with your dad's care and for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review.

Overall Experience

My father has been a resident in Redwoods for the past 3 months. Both I and the rest of my extended family are delighted with the level of care that our beloved father receives. The staff are always patient, friendly and very professional. The staff have a wonderful way with Dad who can be very stubborn.

They have a great relationship with him incorporating fun into the situation, something he enjoys immensely. The recent Christmas Party organised for the residents was excellent. A party that we all enjoyed immensely, especially Dad. All-in-all, as a family, we are delighted with the care home. A real highland gem.

I am so glad my dad got a place at Daviot Care Home. He moved after a bad experience at another home and the difference is incomparable. The staff at Daviot are absolutely fantastic, dedicated, friendly, well trained and so caring. It's much more like a big family than a care home. My dad is happy,

very well fed (with his special diet catered for) and mentally stimulated. As a family, we couldn't be happier with the high standard of care he is receiving.

Overall Experience

I don't have to worry about Mum and Dad because I know that they are in caring and patient hands. The manager is very hands-on and a great communicator. She creates a very calming and peaceful home for the residents of St. Olaf. The staff are friendly and approachable and go out of their way to discuss

Mum and Dad and answer any questions that I have. The facility is very safe, clean, cozy, and welcoming and looks so festive during the Christmas season. There are also many fun activities that have engaged my parents, especially around the holidays. My dad likes to walk and he gets out with one of the nurses for some daily free air!
I am very relieved that we have found St. Olaf because they have made, what can be a very stressful time for families, into a dignified and respectful experience.

Reply from Kath Allan, Care Home Manager at St Olaf Care Home

Thank you for your kinds words and it is a privilege to have your parents stay at St Olaf. At St Olaf we endeavour to treat everyone as an individual and with dignity and kindness. Thank you.

Overall Experience

My dad has resided at St Olaf for a few months now where the staff have cared well for him. Tragically Dad is now at end of life which is extremely difficult for us all. It is so supportive that the staff not only take care of your loved one but also you and your family, being kind and compassionate

in their approach, it means a lot. Dad has not been able to take part in the activities since the beginning of October so it's difficult for me to comment on this. It would be useful to have a private space available for meetings.
I believe that the staff from the management down really care about the residents and at the end of the day this is all we all want, to be cared for in a kind and compassionate way in our last years.
Thank you to St Olaf!

The care my husband receives at Daviot Care Home is exemplary. He has Alzheimers disease and staff are very well trained to support him with all its complexities. All staff, in whatever capacity, treat him with kindness, respect and dignity. Care staff are solution focused when problems arise and work

closely with the GP. All residents have a care plan in place to suit their individual needs. My husband's special diet is catered for and he enjoys his meals. Activity Co-Ordinator's support his mental health and well being. The excellent senior management have created a friendly homely environment where staff, residents and families are all valued.

The Manor is a beautifully furnished, very well-run care home. For over a decade I, along with my wife, sister and late brother have been visiting my younger sister.
The tone of the home is set by the outstanding manager. She is the quintessential leader! Leading from the front with genuine compassion

and a relentless commitment to her staff and residents. The present staff are also excellent. They are very friendly, and welcoming and also demonstrate genuine compassion and a relentless commitment to the residents.
