I have been visiting my brother in the home for the past year and phoning to speak every night. I have always found all the staff to be very efficient yet warm and welcoming. My brother recently passed away in hospital. I can only say that while I was not impressed with the casualty department of the
hospital, the comparison and care provided by the entire staff has been exemplary. This home represents the pinnacle of excellence.

Reply from Steven McLellan, Manager at Craigend Gardens Care Unit

I have found all staff to be courteous to both myself and my wife.
My wife is totally incontinent, so all staff must have the patience of saints to cope with her daily needs.

My brother has been suffering from delirium. Since being moved to Craigend Gardens he is starting to take an interest in things and is more contented, and less agitated. He is very well looked after by excellent staff.

Reply from Rahi Joshi, Marketing Associate at Craigend Gardens Care Unit

We're delighted that your brother settled in quickly at Craigend Gardens. Our dedicated staff are committed to creating a welcoming and supportive environment. Thank you for your kind words. Kind regards.

My mother became a resident in September 2022 under different management. My review then would have been 1 star.
However, there is now a new management team in place and there is an overall improvement in all aspects.
Staff are friendly and attentive, the communication has greatly improved also.
Activities
have also improved, whereas in 2022 they were few and far between.

Reply from Rahi Joshi, Marketing Associate at Craigend Gardens Care Unit

Thank you for your kind words. Your feedback is very much appreciated and we are delighted to know your mum is doing well with us, we ensure to maintain high care standards at all times. I will forward your kind sentiments to the home team.
Kind regards.

My brother unfortunately had to go into care. He has been a resident at the home since April 2019. Myself and members of my family are very happy with the care he receives at the home. He settled in really well. We did have a couple of hiccups along the way but they were resolved in a professional manner.
I can now sleep at night and go on holiday with the knowledge that he is being well cared for.

My mother in law has been in Craigend Gardens for just over a year now and the family are very happy that she is in such a good and caring environment. My mother in law has always been a nervous and anxious person. The staff are all extremely kind and caring and they manage to comfort her and settle
her. We are happy that there is plenty of activities and I know the staff try to encourage her to join in. Taking everything into consideration - food, activities and attention and dedicated staff - we see that we are comforted knowing she is happy and safe.

Current Review Score: 8.8 (8.788)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.8 (8.788) out of 10 for Craigend Gardens Care Unit is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.2 out of 5 from 6 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 4.563 for Craigend Gardens Care Unit is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (23 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.563

  • 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 4.225 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Craigend Gardens Care Unit is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 48 registered maximum number of service users is 9.6. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 9.6 = 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.
