Why Meallmore
Care that feels like home
Our two Fraserburgh homes have cared for local families for decades - the sort of homes where a manager greets you at the door and remembers your name the second time you visit. Chef-cooked Scottish meals, en-suite rooms residents make their own, landscaped gardens, and daily activities shaped around who a person is. Our teams work closely with local GPs and NHS Grampian district nursing to support residents and families through every stage of care, including end-of-life care in familiar surroundings.

A short guide
How to choose a care home in Fraserburgh
Choosing a care home in Fraserburgh usually starts with the type of care needed - residential, nursing, dementia, respite or palliative - and how close the home is to the rest of the family. In a coastal town like Fraserburgh, families visit often, so proximity matters. Read the Care Inspectorate reports for the homes on your shortlist rather than only the top-line grades - the wording tells you far more than the numbers. Visit at least twice, once ideally unannounced, and notice how staff talk with residents, whether people look relaxed and engaged, and how the home smells and sounds. Ask what a typical day looks like, whether routines and preferences can be kept, and how meals, activities and visiting work in practice. Ask about links with Fraserburgh Hospital, Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, NHS Grampian community teams and local GPs - continuity with familiar clinicians is a real comfort, particularly for end-of-life care. Above all, trust the atmosphere - a well-run home usually feels right within the first ten minutes.
