My mother-in-law became a resident in the Caledonian Court community in December 2023. We were initially worried about how she would react to moving into care after living in her own home until she was 95. We had no cause to worry. The staff from the cleaners, care staff, and medical staff up to the
manager looked after her really well. Helped her to integrate into the community. They also allayed any concerns we had about her. The care home has taken years off her and she enjoys her new life in Caledonian Court Larbert.

We are happy with the care and attention she receives from the day staff. The night shift, at times, could be a bit more understanding, especially to the needs of the resident and taking their age into consideration.

Caledonian Court give both me and my sister the peace of mind that our mum is happy, safe and very well looked after.
She has such a connection with all carers and office staff, she is very settled and we can never thank them all enough, we could not be more grateful for her care. The kindness and
respect she gets is second to none.

First of all, thanks very much for all you do! Staff are friendly and the home is well looked after. There is plenty of space to get around inside and outside. May I suggest however, that something is done to improve wheelchair access at the front door? It is possible to manage but it could be made
easier. I am fit but I imagine others could really struggle. Oftentimes, I am at the door, pushing a chair in or out, with no one else around except the person in the chair. The outside doors are heavy and the metal ramp on the ground makes it really awkward to get through. It’s only a suggestion. Thanks again!

Reply from Samantha Debenham, Reviews Team at Caledonian Court

We are pleased to hear of your positive experience with our friendly team, and that you feel the facilities are spacious and well-maintained. We appreciate your constructive comments surrounding accessibility for disabled residents at the entrance. Our team are always willing to aid residents and their loved ones getting in and out of the home, and we are always considering ways to improve accessibility and ensuring getting around is as easy for residents as possible.

My dad was admitted to Caledonian Court in February this year and I can honestly say I couldn’t have asked for a better one. From the front door to the management team to the carers and domestics everyone is pleasant, friendly and approachable.
The home is spotlessly clean. The personal care given
is excellent, given with care and dignity. The residents are well fed too by the catering team. They are also encouraged to take part in activities and are also taken on day trips in the care home minibus.
I am very happy with the care my dad receives. It’s not easy when a parent has to go into care, but the folks at Caledonian Court have brought peace out of a stressful situation.

My mother has been in Caledonian Court for only a few months, but in that short time she has settled very well. Staff are wonderful and very understanding of residents' needs. The management are first class and very approachable, no problem you take to them or the admin team is left unattended. In the
time Mum has been there not only has she started to make it her home, but my husband and I are also feeling part of the Caledonian family as we are made very welcome and now help with little jobs around the home, which is good for us and hopefully helpful for them.

My mother, born 23.01.1933, died while resident at the home.
I and my brother have nothing but praise for the staff who cared for my mother over a period of twenty months. She was diagnosed with vascular dementia in early 2021 and died peacefully this month.
My mother was obviously well cared for
and when she had an occasional, lucid period, herself praised the staff and was often heard issuing their instructions for the day, she had a wicked sense of humour and the staff often engaged in humorous exchanges with her.
Again, my thanks to the management and all the staff.

My mother-in-law has been in the home for about three years now. The staff are caring, attentive and friendly. She is well cared for and content. Although covid and being locked down has taken a toll on her physical health, she is still happy and contented; but unable to walk now. My niece was married
in September 2021 and a carer accompanied mum to the wedding, it was a lady from the white wing and she was excellent with mum and blended right in on the day. I can't praise her enough.

Mum has been a resident for almost five years. As a family, we are delighted with the care and love that she receives. Mum has also required several hospital appointments, which have been no trouble for the staff to arrange. Perhaps the only slight annoyance, if that the home mobile phone doesn't get
a signal in some rooms too far away from the base unit at the nurse's station. However, if we have required to speak to Mum, she was wheelchaired to an area that gets a good signal. Many staff have let Mum use their own phones.

Reply from Samantha Debenham, Personal Assistant at Caledonian Court

Thanks so much for taking the time to write your review and rate Caledonian Court care home 5-stars! We are delighted to hear that you are extremely likely to recommend us to others.

We are sorry to hear of your frustration regarding the phone signal of the home mobile phone. Your feedback has been received and acted on. From this, we have opened a new ticket with our IT department to get this looked into to improve our facilities for communication.

My mother was resident in Caledonian Care Home for six years and I cannot praise the staff enough for the care and attention my mum got and the support they gave the family. They made these difficult years so much easier for our mother and for us. She enjoyed their company and we could see the love
she had from them and visa versa in their faces. During the lockdown, they have excelled in keeping their residents happy and most importantly Covid-19 free throughout. They are truly amazing. So pleased we chose Caledonian Court Care Home. Thank you to all.

Current Review Score: 9.2 (9.188)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.2 (9.188) out of 10 for Caledonian Court 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 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 9 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 4.663 for Caledonian Court is calculated as follows: ( (70 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 104 Ratings = 4.663

  • 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 4.525 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Caledonian Court is based on 9 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 = 3.9

    • 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 72 registered maximum number of service users is 14.4. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 14.4 = 0.625

  • 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.
