Review from Keith S (Son of Resident) published on 13 February 2019 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
Since my father was admitted into The Gables. I have nothing but praise for all the staff. The care and consideration given to my father is outstanding. My mother, before she died, was in care which I thought was good but The Gables has shown me what true care really means. They are a family with love and compassion for the residents, led by an outstanding manager.

Review from Lee B (Son of Resident) published on 18 December 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
Another year has passed and another year confirmed as choosing The Gables care home for my mother was the best move our family made. The staff at The Gables are themselves a family and their one aim is to give the best possible love and care to their residents. This they have done and continue to do. I have the rare pleasure of knowing that this care team can do what I cannot. Thank you Gables.

Review from Janet F (Private Carer of Resident) published on 15 November 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
I was with the resident and husband at their home address when an emergency occurred with husband. I contacted the daughter who phoned The Gables because the resident is known to them. A carer was sent to help and after packing a bag took resident with her to The Gables. I can't express my thanks enough for all the help and kindness that was shown to myself and resident at such a critical time.

Mum has been at The Gables nearly 3 years. Can't fault the care, The Manager and her staff give to Mum and the other residents.
They all try and make it very homely and visitors are always welcome at any time.

Overall Experience
I have always found The Gables to be very welcoming and smells lovely as you enter. The atmosphere is very homely and my relative is very well looked after with kindness and lots of patience. The food is very plentiful with lots of tea, coffee, biscuits always on offer. The residents are well entertained every week.

Review from Gordon L (Husband of Resident) published on 29 November 2017 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
Since my darling wife came to live here, I have seen her wellbeing improve enormously.
I am very sad that she is no longer able to be at home with me but I have witnessed the wonderful management and staff caring for all the residents and I know that my wife will be made comfortable and will be looked after for her remaining days, which is a great comfort for myself and our daughter and her sisters.

Review from Michael S (Nephew of Resident) published on 16 March 2017 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
I have visited The Gables on 4 occasions in January 2017 and found the staff very friendly and helpful with the home well presented.
The staff were always busy with their duties coming across as caring, patient and helpful to the residents I encountered.
The last occasion I arrived at lunchtime and I was most impressed with the presentation and aroma of the cooked meal. The dining area was cleared of all mobility aids and the residents assembled for lunch making for a relaxed and orderly atmosphere.

My relative has been a very difficult individual, taking a time to settle in, but the staff persevered and now he has tempered his behaviour.

Review from Lynda F (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 December 2016 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My Mother has recently moved to The Gables, no longer able to live in her own home due to dementia. The care staff give at The Gables has been a combination of professional, caring and friendly. Whilst ensuring all the necessary paperwork is complete, care plans etc.
The priority has been the safety, care and comfort for my Mother.
All staff I have seen demonstrate gentle kindness and care to the residents, at meal times, during activities planned each day and in giving personal care.

Review from Pete D (Brother of Resident) published on 14 June 2016 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My sister became incapable of caring for herself and a care home had to be selected. After many inspections of care home around Hampshire, The Gables stood head and shoulders above all the others for the following reasons; It is immaculately clean specially the kitchens. The residents are happy and communicative, always well dressed and clean. Active involvement is constant and caring of individual needs. My sister is a different person to six months ago, she loves the home and is very content. I am very pleased that the right choice has been made.

Overall Experience
This is really a home and not just a rest "home". The atmosphere is always calm. Nothing is too much trouble - my Mum is treated like a Queen! Should be made as an example to all "homes" how to care for important people. Thanks
