Lovely home. Building clean and roomy. Most staff lovely and caring. One or two who prefer their phones to work. My mum well looked after. Food, entertainment, everything wonderful - amazing since there has been little management. I have never seen or been spoken to by a manager as there seems to never
be one! So staff should be rewarded for keeping this home running so well without management.

Reply from Gillian Drummond, Brand and Communications Manager at Coupar Angus Care Home

Thank you for taking time to review our care home in Coupar Angus and for the positive comments. We're happy to hear that your mum is being well looked after. One of our members of senior management looked into your concern about staff seeming to be on their phones. What you are seeing is staff on their electronic care management tools updating resident records and care plans. Please be assured that the other concerns you raise have been passed on and will be addressed immediately. Kind regards.

I was very pleased with the care and attention nursing staff gave Mum in the short time she was with Balhousie Coupar Angus. I would recommend the care home for anyone looking for a care home.

Reply from Louise Byars, Executive Manager to Tony Banks at Coupar Angus Care Home

Thanks so much for your kind review, Susan. I am delighted to hear that the care received by your Mum at Balhousie Coupar Angus was excellent and will ensure your feedback is passed on to the team.
Kind regards

The staff are very friendly and welcoming and the home itself is pleasant to visit. I like the fact there are quiet areas where we can sit and chat and not have to stay in the room or in the lounge where the television is. On the whole, the home seems to be well run and the standard of care very good.

Although generally, Balhousie is OK, the staffing levels appear to be low, therefore carers don't have the time to sit with the residents - especially in their rooms. Usually, they are in to help to the toilet and out again. The food also appears to be rather boring. It's Tuesday so it must be macaroni
type thing - maybe the cook should stop spending under her allowance and "up the antie".

Reply from Gail Melville, Marketing Assistant and Dementia Ambassador at Coupar Angus Care Home

Thank you for your feedback. It is always really important for us to hear and we take your observations on board. We are working hard on our teams and creating great environments to live and work. We are still developing our home where the culture follows that of Balhousie Care’s values and ethos.

Clean and comfortable with attentive staff who clearly know the residents. My mother can be very critical but she has no complaints. Staff always communicate with me.

My father was admitted om crisis as he could not walk/take his weight.
Over the four weeks, he has put on weight, been able to get himself out of bed, and can now move around.

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.
