My auntie is so happy and well cared for in White Gables. Staff are lovely, meals like a hotel and cater for all residents separately if needed, have even seen a glass of white wine going to a resident with their meal. I am notified if anything has happened or she has been seen by the doctor. Entertainment
and activities very good also. An excellent home, as a family we are very happy.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Having had a difficult experience with another care home, the resident could hardly be happier than he is at White Gables and this is a great reassurance to me and his other attorneys. White Gables does not have the 'bells and whistles' - nor the price tag! - of a more modern purpose-built care home,
but it does have a very caring ethos and the most wonderful staff that one could wish for. On one evening visit (and one can visit at any time of day), the tender care with which the staff led the residents to their rooms almost brought me to tears. The entertainment programme is engaging and varied. The home has a great relationship with the nearby GP surgery and a paramedic visits twice a week. Communications are excellent. I cannot recommend White Gables highly enough and, if they were still alive, it would be my top choice care home in Felixstowe for my own parents.

Mum has been a resident at White Gables since 2020 moving in during Covid restrictions. Mum suffers with dementia and needed daily support. It was a difficult decision for our family.
I was recommended White Gables by a friend. Her mother had been a resident there for eight years. She was very pleased
with the care home. The staff are caring and sensitive towards mum's needs. She is settled and well looked after.
The communication has been excellent with regular email updates and monthly newsletters. We are able to visit anytime in the week and the carers are always friendly. There are daily activities for residents to take part in and relatives are invited along.
I would like to thank all the staff for their support and definitely recommend White Gables to those looking for a safe and homely place for their loved ones.

Our mother is suffering from the effects of Alzheimer's and had got to the stage where she was unable to look after herself. We were concerned about putting her in a home but realised that she needed specialist care. We needn't have worried. White Gables has been wonderful in every sense, with the
staff being particularly caring. Our mother settled in quickly and is very happy there. We cannot recommend White Gables enough.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
We're so lucky to have found White Gables. My mum went in for two weeks in January and decided she wanted to stay there. Mum was calling White Gables "home" very quickly.
The staff were all so lovely and caring, not only to Mum but to us, her family, as well. The fact that Mum called the staff her
"Angels" shows how fond she was of them and how good they were to her.
I really appreciate the staff at White Gables and everything they did for Mum, they are a fabulous team of people who have caring in their hearts.
I can't recommend White Gables highly enough to anyone who is looking for a care home in Felixstowe for a loved one.

My father has recently moved into White Gables after many years of independent living. He was very concerned about whether he would fit in and I have nothing but praise for how the manager and her team have made him feel welcome. Dad has settled in really well and has really come out of his shell in
the time he has been there. I was so worried that he wouldn’t be happy away from his home but he surprises me every time I see him with his optimism and cheerfulness. He is a changed man. I can’t thank the staff enough for the care shown. It is, I think, much harder for men than women to make the move as so many care homes have very few male residents but White Gables really is a home from home.

We will never be able to thank the manager and all the staff enough for taking our mum in as a resident in an emergency situation. Since August 2021, Mum has been looked after so very well and has settled in nicely. The entire team are so caring and work so hard to look after their residents. I know
that my mum thinks the world of the team who look after her as do we, her family. We certainly chose the right residential care home for Mum and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend White Gables to anyone.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
It is always difficult when a loved one has to go into a care home, it's a huge decision for a family to make. My great aunt went to White Gables and I am so relieved to see that she is happy, has a fantastic room and is well cared for.
The manager and her team run an extremely professional and friendly
operation, nothing is too much trouble, the level of care is excellent and we as a family are regularly kept up to date via bulletins and newsletters.
I have always felt extremely welcome when visiting, the home is well-appointed and the staff are always helpful. The residents are all happy and there's always a full programme of events to keep everyone busy and entertained.
It is a credit to the team that they have kept Covid away from the residents and took the necessary measures needed to ensure the safety of all.
I would not hesitate to recommend White Gables to anyone faced with this tough decision and would like to thank the manager and her team for their professionalism and all they do.

I have nothing but praise for this team. My mum came for a trial and decided to stay. She loves all of the staff, her room is very comfortable and she likes the food.
I have to say the care team are so good, they really care and nothing is too much trouble either for us or for Mum.
We got very lucky
with this care home at a time that could have been very difficult, but the team made it very easy.
They are attentive to Mum's needs and have already noticed small things very quickly that have saved Mum from being poorly.
I really cannot praise them enough, thank you for giving us the peace of mind that we were desperate to find and the right care for Mum.

We wanted to thank all the carers and staff for their amazing care of my father.
He suffered from dementia and we could not have asked for him to be in a better place. He was happy for his final year and was very well look after.
The food was all home cooked, rooms very clean and he was always dressed
smart and care taken.
He was a proud person and he was treated with respect and great care.
I would highly recommend this home for any families that may be facing a tough decision for the care of their parents.

Prior to moving to White Gables from another care facility, my husband became withdrawn, sad, uncommunicative and lonely. Never leaving his room.
He very quickly settled in his new home in White Gables. He regularly goes downstairs and even stays a little in the lounge. The change in his life is great;
he listens to music again, even plays scrabble. He interacts with us and laughs. All of this is a happy first in a very long time.
I cannot thank enough the management and the team of cheerful, understanding carers for the difference they have made to my husband and his family. We only wish we had done this much earlier!

We moved my father with advanced dementia to White Gables after a bad experience in a different home. He was becoming increasingly withdrawn, having multiple falls with worsening mobility, not eating well and complaining of non-specific pains. Within 3 days, and this has been sustained now for a few
weeks, he was eating everything in front of him, socialising, leaving his room and no longer complaining of pain. He and my family have been treated with the utmost compassion and kindness. The carers take the time to understand his needs and get to know him properly, listening to us if we have advice. This is so important, especially when dealing with dementia. He is behaving as though White Gables is his home, a big difference from before.

My mum came to White Gables Care Home for respite as her dementia was causing concern for her safety at home. She has been treated with kindness and compassion by all staff. Communication is excellent from the manager and care staff. Due to Covid restrictions, there is an appointments system in place
with lateral flow testing. It all works extremely well. I cannot fault the place.

This review comes at a time during lockdown. So we have no other experience other than the restrictions at this time.
Our Mum has been very complimentary of all the care and support she has been given and can't rate them highly enough for their kindness at this time. When our father passed all the
staff were very supportive and kind, always available and approachable in our time of need.

My Mum continues to be happy, content and settled at White Gables. In her own words, she says she is being very well looked after and I don’t need to worry about her. This is a huge relief to me and has been particularly over the last 18 months, as I live many miles away. This is thanks to the continued
hard work and efforts of everyone in the team. They communicate well with the family and the range of activities has improved over the last few months. I have no hesitation in recommending White Gables.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.762)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.762) out of 10 for White Gables Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 23 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 23 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 4.762 for White Gables Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (210 Excellents x 5) + (61 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 273 Ratings = 4.762
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for White Gables Care Home is based on 23 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    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 37 registered maximum number of service users is 7.4, which has been reached with 23 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.
