My lovely sister-in-law has now been at Beechgrove for just over a year. I live some distance away but was able to visit her last week - and I remain blown away by how amazing the care is. Absolutely everyone I met was friendly - indeed the whole atmosphere is friendly and supportive. When I arrived
one day, my sister-in-law was walking from one wing to her usual wing - it's amazing how well she gets around the care home, welcome in any of the wings and known to everyone. When I arrived another day, there was a chair exercise class in full swing, with humour and encouragement from the staff member heading it up. We visited her room together to look at some pictures and her room was absolutely immaculate and yet homely. It is incredibly re-assuring to see how well she is cared for - and thank you too for caring for my brother as a regular visitor - thank you to everyone at the truly incredible place that is Beechgrove.

Reply from Elena Paraschiv, Care Home Manager at Beechgrove Care Home

Thank you for your heartfelt review. It is encouraging to hear how welcome you feel when visiting and that our quality of care and compassion to residents and visitors alike are at a standard everyone deserves. We encourage our residents to walk around our home and interact with others it is truly a home from home. Our exercise classes are a hit where everyone and anyone is encouraged to join in, however if some quiet time is needed residents rooms are always a comforting place to return to.

My aunt has had such a hard time due to a few recent hospital stays. We, as a family, couldn't believe our luck in being offered a residential place at Beechgrove Care Home. Now she has the 24 hour care she needs, it's such a relief. But as well as this, Beechgrove have a fantastic activities programme.
I also extend sincere thanks to staff in all departments, making my aunt's stay so pleasurable, and for making us all so welcome.

Reply from Elena Paraschiv, Care Home Manager at Beechgrove Care Home

Thank you for your recent review, I am glad your aunt has settled in well and she feels comfortable and safe in her new home. Our activities program aims to involve all residents to help make their days more meaningful and fulfilling. Relatives are just as important as our residents and we are happy that you feel so welcome.

It's challenging when when it's time to put a loved one into long-term care but from day one on a tour of the facility to agreeing, it was the right thing, then moving in, I cannot fault the caring staff that look after my mum. The management, admin, carers, catering, cleaning, laundry, nurses, activities
all make her so welcome and make me feel reassured she is being incredibly well looked after and genuinely cared for. Thank you team Beechgrove.

Thank you for your kind words. It means the world to us knowing we are able to make Mum feel part of our family and make her stay here comfortable.

The standard of care for my wife is outstanding - all the staff are friendly and caring, the facilities are excellent and the activities are great. The main thing though is the staff who are all fantastic. Walking along the corridor recently with my wife, who has dementia, everyone we passed had a cheery
'hello' for us - and my wife said 'I feel like the queen - everybody knows me'. What a great thing that when she is forgetting everything she is made to feel special. That means so much to me, to the rest of the family and to her friends - all of who feel welcome and rate Beechgrove Care Home as fantastic.

Reply from Maggie Allison, Care Home Manager at Beechgrove Care Home

Thank you very much for your review. Your wife has settled very well into Beechgrove, it is lovely to see how happy she is, she gets on well with the staff and enjoys the activities that she takes part in. We endeavour to make all our residents feel happy, content and well cared for within our home.

My father-in-law has been in Beechgrove Care Home for over two years and the standard of care and support has been superb throughout the entire stay. The staff are excellent, they provide all the required services but also with a lot of care and consideration of each individual's needs. We are also
made very welcome and asked to treat the facility as if it were our dad's home.
The quality and choice of food are very good, the cleanliness excellent and the whole facility is in the process of being upgraded.
There has been a change in management over the last few months but it is good to see that they have changed very little (don't fix it if it isn't broken).

Reply from Maggie Allison, Care Home Manager at Beechgrove Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to give us a review. It is always good to receive feedback and the review that your father-in-law is well cared for shows that the service we provide is up to standard. We endeavour to make residents feel at home in a supported environment. We welcome families at any time and actively encourage them to take part alongside their relatives in activities and outings that they may go on.

I think this nursing home is excellent in every way! All the staff are very nice and considerate to the residents and their families and visitors. From the care staff, cooks and kitchen staff, cleaners and office workers, all of them are so caring to the residents. When my partner was there near end-of-life,
they just look after you like you are family, ensuring you have something to eat and tea and coffees and wee chats, comforting the family at their hardest and saddest times! My partner loved it there, his chats with the activities, being able to move around and chat to other residents but most of all, the meals all homemade, of course, he says the rice pudding is the best he's ever tasted in his life. I can't thank the staff enough for making his stay at his all-inclusive hotel (that's what he called it) so enjoyable and safe. Thank you again!

Reply from Elena Paraschiv, Care Home Manager at Beechgrove Care Home

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review, as you know your partner knew many of the staff at Beechgrove and from the moment he came to us, he was part of "our family" he settled well and interacted with staff and residents alike, his smile and sense of humour was so infectious, everyone just loved him. When a resident settles so well, it is a comfort to the family and a great satisfaction to ourselves and the care that we provide.

My mother was in Beechgrove Care Home for six years. She passed away the end of July, the care received over the last few weeks was excellent. The staff were so caring and thoughtful to Mum and the family members that attended over the last few weeks.
Over the years, since Mum was a resident, every
effort was made to engage her with activities organised in the common lounge and cinema room.
Special occasions, like birthdays, music sing and dancing, were organised with all residents joining in.
Mum's 100th birthday party was a great day with a good number of the family in attendance and the lounge decorated with the card from the King displayed for all to see.

Really nice and caring staff. My father is well looked after in every way. This takes the stress and the strain off me and my sister. Food is very tasty and the kitchen staff will meet the resident's needs. Rooms are cleaned every day and to a high standard. Carers are very kind and considerate and
often go above and beyond to help the residents. The management team are very approachable and will help you as much as they can. The nurses are wonderful with my father and can usually spot anything untoward. All in all a very good care home with a very friendly atmosphere.

My father has been a resident of Beechgrove for nearly 3 years. In January 2024 he passed away. During the few days between becoming really ill and passing the staff went well beyond with their care and dedication not only to Dad but myself during a very difficult time. In the time he has been a resident,
he has been well cared for and loved by all the staff. Nothing is too much trouble. In fact, I will miss the staff now I no longer need to visit. They were such a support. I would highly recommend Beechgrove Care Home to anyone.

The manager and administrator are the heartbeat of the care home. Their standards and behaviours disseminate throughout the large team and you can see the positive

I visit Beechgrove Care Home to see my dad regularly. I'm often so surprised by the innovative activities arranged by the senior care home staff for the residents, families and staff members. Last Friday 25 August was a Wellness day. There were games to put a smile on your face and a bouncy castle.
I had a quick go with my 76-year-old mother and we were giggling at getting to do what we last did as children. It put a spring in our step and made us bright and cheerful for our visit with my dad who suffers from dementia. I have a lot to say in recommendation of how the staff look after the residents but in this particular review, I'm highlighting what they do for the carers - their staff and the families with a resident in the home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.901)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.901) out of 10 for Beechgrove Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 24 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 24 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 4.901 for Beechgrove Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (258 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 283 Ratings = 4.901

  • 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 Beechgrove Care Home is based on 24 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 24 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.
