Reviews for Fordmill Care Home

"My stay at Fordmill was perfect in every way. The attention to detail was incredible in every way and all my needs were met and more. The staff all went the extra mile. My room was very comfortable and clean and I was so impressed with all the activities that were organised. It was such a well organised, well managed home and I felt safe and very happy to have my Respite there."

"Mum was in Fordmill for 10 months. She was so well cared for, staff are amazing, so caring and loving. Mum was vegan and kitchen staff went out of their way for her. The residents are lovely and I am continuing to visit them. Thank you so much. Mum was in the best place in Angus."

"Gold standard facility ! Looks more like a cosy local hotel than a care facility but has a very " homely " feel, mostly due to the personal attentiveness and friendliness of all staff from the manager down ! Family And friends are made to feel Welcome at all times , standards of cleanliness and service are impeccable , the food is wholesome and plentiful , and the nursing care is thorough and tailored to each resident . On top of this there is a lively entertainment programme each week and no one is left out other than by choice which is totally respected . A real nice touch is the private dining room where friends and family can join their loved ones for a meal or an occasion and the service here is also second to none . Just can't say enough about every aspect of this home . My parents are looking as well and happy as they have been for a long time"

"Our Father went into Fordmill Montrose just before Christmas 2025 , from the start the staff were amazing , friendly approachable and so caring towards our Dad and ourselves , Aileen was extremely helpful, all the staff seem to genuinely care about the people they care for and the atmosphere is warm and friendly, Fordmill feels so homely the decor reminds me of a beautiful hotel , there could be no better place for a loved one to be cared for in their later years."

"After being in another care home for a short period of time Mum had trepidation about being transferred to Fordmill in Montrose. From day one she loved it and all her worries, and ours, were alleviated by the kind, caring and welcoming staff and residents. After isolating herself for many years, the staff coached her into participating in everything. During her nearly 4 years in Fordmill she enjoyed the activities and friendships she made. She particularly loved not having to cook and do the dishes!! Fordmill and the staff were a blessing to all of us, knowing Mum was safe and taken care of, thank you all for the caring and dignified way you treat your residents and their families."

"Fordmill is a brilliant care home with loving staff who were all brilliant for my mum, she thoroughly enjoyed it and the staff always went above and Beyond. the whole environment of the home is fantastic and feels like one big family."

"To start off, all of the staff - office, cleaners, kitchen and of course - the carers, are all fantastic. From the day I first visited Fordmill, they all were keen to make myself & my friend (resident) feel welcome. I dont think anything was a problem for them. Thank you!"

"We wanted mum to come into this nursing home as it had an excellent reputation and we have not regretted it for a single second. The care our mum has received is second to none. All the staff, no matter at what level, are outstanding always smiling and cheerful. Nothing is too much trouble. Very attentive to our mums needs. Mum has really enjoyed the activities she has been able to attend and we have been impressed with what they have to offer, something for everyone. Mums highlight was the Scottish dancers, bringing back happy memories. The choice of meals and the wide variety of food to choose from is excellent. The peace of mind having 24/7 care given to our mum, by the caring management and staff, helps us tremendously"

"My dad was in Fordmill from April 2025 until October 2025 when he passed. The home looked after my father wonderfully. Every member of staff were great. He was treated with compassion & respect until the end. There is always some good activities to join in & food is excellent. All care homes should be like this."

Attended care home to vaccinate with NHS TAYSIDE. Team were excellent and very helpful. Lisa was especially helpful and knew the residents well. Thanks so much. We look forward to returning.

"My experience of Fordmill care home is that the staff are fantastic and very approachable. They have been very accommodating with my Mums needs. I really appreciate all the activities that are available and my Mums family really enjoy seeing all the pictures. Thanks to all the staff you all work very hard."

"All staff even those I barly saw were amazing in their dedication to delivering a fantastic level of care to my father in his final months. But the last few days I can not find the words to thank you for what you did for us as a family not just my father."

"I can't praise the staff enough for the care they gave my husband and the family, over the last week of his life. They went above and beyond in my opinion. The staff in Fordmill Montrose are a fabulous team. Their profesionalism is second to none. I am truely thankful, my husband became a resident in this nursing home. Accept the thanks of all my family for everything they did to keep him comfortable at the end. That meant the world to us."

"First class. The staff in their entirety were caring and attentive. Food and amenities were excellent, medical attention was brilliant, the team provided entertainment and stimulation on a daily basis. Compassion, dignity and respect at the end. When it's my time, if I could afford it I'd want to go there too!"

"My cousin spent his final year in Fordmill, suffering from a terminal illness. He was so well cared for, that his life expectancy, initially 6 weeks, was extended by a year. He was very content, despite being bedridden, due to the excellant care and attention given by all staff members. He especially enjoyed the food, and we enjoyed the cakes with our cuppa on our visits. It gave us peace of mind that he was happy there."

"About 14 years ago my mother passed away here after 2 or 3 happy years here, more recently my uncle passed away after approximately 18months as a resident, as a family we were able to spend more quality time with them both and not have to worry about their day to day stuff when they were at home, the care both were given was excellent. Also 2 of my elderly neighbours have lived here, one recently passed and my other neighbour is loving it, highly recommend,"

"My mother was admitted with stage four cancer, dementia and diabetes. As a family we knew she did not have much good days left ahead of her. However the staff - to a man - looked after both my mother and father - who visited every day, with love and dignity. As a family we are truly grateful for everything you dad to make mum's final days comfortable and enjoyable as they could be."
