Review of Gifford House Care Home from Jackie S (Daughter of Resident) published on 30 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My mother was a resident at Gifford House for almost two years. She had dementia and was extremely frail and at risk of falls.
The care she received was given with compassion, dignity and kindness at all times. I knew that at times mum could be difficult and sometimes aggressive but the staff were never judgemental. They were patient, kind always smiling and it was clear that they had her best interests at heart. Although we knew that mum wouldn't have wanted to be in a nursing home we felt happy as we knew she was safe and being cared for at the end of her life.

We would like to say a big thank you to ALL the lovely staff at Gifford House.

Review of Bassett House Care Home from Jose B (Next of Kin) published on 26 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My 96 year old Mother in Law stayed in respite residential care in Bassett Care Home for 6 weeks. The care that she received there was second to none. From the carers, the managers, the nurses, entertainment staff and everyone else that works in the home they are all excellent. Nothing was too much trouble. She was treated with the utmost care by all staff. Her dignity and her wish for independence were treated with the greatest respect. She entered the home with lots of health issues and thanks to the nursing she received, she was able to leave feeling really healthy and return home.
The care home itself is modern, recently refurbished and immaculate. The home cooked food is excellent with plenty of choice. Visitors are made to feel very welcome. Coffee, tea, cakes and biscuits are always on hand for visitors too.

I highly recommend this care home to anyone looking for care for their loved ones.

Review of Gifford House Care Home from J C (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
Hi Our Mum was in this care home for 3 yrs.
This care home has been fantastic with our mum until she past 4/5.
We couldn't get there in time so the nurse in charge sat with mum holding her hand until we arrived. This was so much appreciated and showed how much staff care for the people in the home.
We can honestly say we have never had a problem with the home, if you ask for something to be done it is done asap. Mum was very happy at this home. All the staff likes her and she liked them.
We would recommend this care home to everyone looking for somewhere to put their loved one.
A big Thankyou to All the Staff and Management.
Even the Owner came up to me and asked about mum and how she was treated and if we were pleased with the service they provided. The owner was also a Very nice polite person
So Thanks to Everyone who works in Gifford House

Jill, Carole, Yvonne, Tracey

Review of Gifford House Care Home from Susan W (Sister of Resident) published on 11 June 2026 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My sister has been a resident now for nearly 3 yrs and is very happy here. The staff are brilliant, caring, respectful, compassionate, professional and above all are friendly to both residents + visitors and will always have time to chat to the residents who might need a little tlc. The nursing staff keep you informed of any medical issue and are always there when you need advise and will get the doctor in or refer you if necessary I cannot tell you how much peace of mind this care home gives me. I took me ages to find the right one.

We as a family believe that Gifford House give very good care to our relative, who has been here for 3 years. The staff all treat him and I'm kindness and respect. The nurse team are very good. There are occassions where things go wrong eg sorting out transport to/from appointments, but they make amends and apologise.

Review of Bassett House Care Home from Na H (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
The home is modern, bright, clean and welcoming. Safeguards are in place such as keypads to keep residents safe, mum has a side guarded bed with pressure mattress to prevent bed sores and personal care is given by more than one staff member to prevent accidents. I am warmly welcomed when entering and the staff have treated mum with dignity and respect. Mums room is spotlessly clean.
They keep a close eye on her health and prompt action has been taken when mum has been unwell. Her meals are tailored to her needs and the staff feed her with kindness. Visitors are always asked if we would like a drink when the trolley comes round and we are able to help ourselves to a drink in the kitchen at any time.
Despite being bedridden and having advanced dementia, the activity staff spend time with her regularly. Communication has been fantastic, there is always someone available to speak to regarding mums care and I am able to visit mum at any time.

Highly recommend Bassett House!

Review of Bassett House Care Home from Alison C (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 June 2026 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother has been been at Bassett House since 2022 and as a family we are very happy with the care she has had and continues to receive. When she first arrived at Bassett House we had specific needs and having reviewed a number of care homes the manager at BH was the only one willing to go out of their way to accommodate my mother and, at the time, also my father. My mothers care needs have changed over time and her care has been adapted to anticipate and meet her needs as her condition has developed. The home is extremely welcoming to family and visitors and I don't think there has been a time when I have visited when I have not been greeted by at least one member of staff and that could be anyone from the management team to the cleaning/maintenance staff. Family and friends are actively invited into the home to attend activities and events and the newly refurbished home has really enhanced the overall warmth and friendliness of the home.
