Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I feel very privileged to have a place in Grey Gables for my husband. He is extremely happy & so well cared for. The staff are excellent. Numerous entertainment. Food & drinks are also excellent & well presented. My husband wants for nothing. Grey Gables is spotlessly clean & fresh. I can't really give
any negative points.

Review from Nicola M (Daughter of Resident) published on 15 June 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My mother has been in the care of Grey Gables since October 2016. She is now 97 and is totally dependant on the staff for her daily needs.
She tells us that she is very happy where she is and considers herself 'very fortunate to have found such a nice place'.
We have always found her room clean and
tidy.
The staff are always very pleasant and helpful and on the few occasions where there have been problems, they have been resolved speedily and without fuss.

Review from Keith B (Son of Resident) published on 5 June 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad has been in Grey Gables for just over a year. There was an element of urgency when we needed to find care for Dad and Grey Gables was the first and only home we looked at as from the moment we walked in everything felt right. Our first instinct has proved to be totally right as the standard of care
Dad receives has been incredible and it feels like he has joined a family. I can honestly say that we feel totally reassured that Dad is safe and secure which gives us great comfort.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.600)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.600) out of 10 for Grey Gables (New Milton) Ltd is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 6 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 5.000 for Grey Gables (New Milton) Ltd is calculated as follows: ( (72 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 5
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.6 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Grey Gables (New Milton) Ltd is based on 6 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 = 3.6
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 24 registered maximum number of service users is 4.8, which has been reached with 6 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
