On 23/6/2025, I had a fall in one of the corridors. In what seemed like less than a few seconds, at least 4 staff attended to me, and I was put on a sling and transferred to my room. The staff worked as a single team and was well cared for.

My wife entered Lyndoch Living on 28 December and I have been fortunate enough to be able to visit heron a regular basis three times a week. These visits last from four to six hours each day. I have great admiration for all of the staff [...] in terms of their patience, professionalism and empathy with the residents. Your staff selection process has been very successful. The meals provided are of high quality and I have commented on a number of times that the meals are much higher quality than those that I used to provide my wife. To conclude I believe that both my wife and I are extremely fortunate that she has been able to find accommodation in Lyndoch Living. In conclusion, thank you for your care.
