I visit my friend twice a week, I always find she is very happy and the staff are very good with her. As I am only there for a few hours I don't know how everything is run. However, what I do see is that the residents are well cared for.

All the staff at Balhousie in Coupar Angus are friendly and always make me feel welcome. The management and carers seem to be being especially attentive to all their roles and are keen to ensure the residents are looked after really well. The food is of really good standard and the meals are excellent.
The home is bright and friendly and there are a good number of activities for residents to participate in. I feel very much like a member of the family when visiting my mum. It has been like this since I started coming two years or so ago now. Overall I am really comfortable and happy that my mum is in a place where she really matters. The medical attention has been excellent and the help my mum has had has been very good in that respect too.

Reply from Anna Gunn, Communications Team at Coupar Angus Care Home

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review. It's so lovely to hear how happy your mum is at Coupar Angus Care Home. It's also wonderful that you feel like a member of the family when visiting. The hardworking staff will be delighted to read this - we'll be sure to pass your kind words on.

The staff are all friendly and welcoming with the carers being especially attentive to all their duties and ensuring the residents are well looked after. The quality of the meals is first class and portions are quite substantial and satisfying. Finally there is never any unpleasant smell in the home
which my family noticed right from the start when my wife first went into the home 2 years ago. Overall I couldn't be happier that my wife is fortunate enough to be in such an excellent standard of care home.

Mum moved into the home in September and settled in much quicker than we expected. This is because Mum feels safe and cared for. The staff are always so welcoming and also very conscious of the fact that Balhousie is now Mum's home, and they spend time finding out about her past, which she likes to
talk about. I can now be a daughter again instead of mum's carer, which was really hard, especially as mum didn't want that either. So far, so good - long may it continue.

Reply from Anna Gunn, Communications Team at Coupar Angus Care Home

What a lovely review - thank you for taking the time to write and submit it. It's wonderful to hear how well your mum has settled into life at Coupar Angus and how welcoming the staff have been.

My gran recently entered the care home, and she settled in straight away.
The staff are so kind, caring and helpful, which has made it much easier for her to make the move from her own home.
The daily activities help keep her mind sharp and active; she also enjoys the company of the staff and residents.

Reply from Melanie Brockway, Brand & Communications Manager at Coupar Angus Care Home

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a review. We're very glad to hear your gran settled in so quickly and so well - we know it can be difficult to leave your home. We'll be sure to pass on your encouraging words to our hardworking Coupar Angus team. Thank you once again.

Always impressed when I visit. The place is welcoming and the staff so friendly and caring of both myself and to the residents. My relative is always well turned out and appears content and comfortable in her big wheeled chair.
There really is nothing negative to say about any aspect of the home. I
cannot say what the feelings are of the resident as she is unable to communicate but her demeanour suggests she is happy with her care

I think Balhousie Care Home is a very good secure unit for dementia which caters well for patients' needs. My dad seemed to be settled here and took to all staff very well who were all amazing their care towards Dad was excellent. Always friendly and cheerful which means a big difference. Special mention
to the lovely lady on admin who was always cheery and helpful at all times. I couldn't have wished for a better place for Dad - unfortunately, a home closer to home was inevitable.
Thanks again to the manager and lovely staff - great team!

I thought the care home, in general, was very good. The staff were very friendly and helpful and I could not fault them. The only issue would be whether my father was in the correct wing of the care home but that is down to opinion.

My husband was admitted to Balhouise in February 2023, and we couldn't have wished for a better place and such kind and caring staff. In the four months, he was there, he was very well looked after. He was only moved from there in June 2023 when a place in another care home nearer home became available.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.752)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.752) out of 10 for Coupar Angus Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.752 for Coupar Angus Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (186 Excellents x 5) + (52 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 242 Ratings = 4.752

  • 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 Coupar Angus Care Home is based on 21 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 41 registered maximum number of service users is 8.2, which has been reached with 21 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.
