  • St Vigean's Care Home, Arbroath
St. Vigeans Care Home is a lovingly converted Victorian House with a purpose-built extension, situated within mature gardens and with sea views.

St. Vigeans specialises in residential care for adults with learning disabilities, and clients are offered the opportunity to develop their independence and potential in all aspects of their life, fully supported by suitably qualified staff.

They offer the highest standards of care and support in comfortable and spacious surroundings.

Most of the accommodation is in single rooms, with some companion rooms if clients express a desire to share. Most of the rooms have en-suite facilities and are fully equipped.

Clients are encouraged to bring along their own personal possessions to make their rooms as individualised and homely as possible.

The home has three spacious lounges all of which are comfortably furnished and have lovely sea views. Television, video and recreational equipment are available for clients' enjoyment.

The extension has its own lounge/dining facility with access to an enclosed area which includes a sensory garden. An enclosed walkway links the extension with the original part of the house and provides access to a secluded garden area.

Hairdressing, chiropody, dental and optician services can be arranged in the privacy of the home or externally.

A programme of activities is available during the day, in which clients are encouraged to participate. Programmes are agreed in accordance with the individual needs and wishes of clients.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I have two brothers with quite complex care needs, both being physically disabled with severe learning disabilities. My brothers have been in St Vigean's for many years, and the care they receive is second to none. All the staff are wonderful and treat my brothers with compassion and respect whilst
providing the highest care and attention possible. I know when I visit or speak with my brothers that they enjoy being at St Vigen's, and I couldn't think of a better place for them. Thank you to all the staff.
