Everyone at Tower Bridge Care Home is very personable and full of compassion in the way they all look after my dad.
From the people in reception to the nurses, you are worth your weight in gold.
Thank you.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
A comprehensive overview of mum's condition both physical and mental. Good discussion regarding practical care and physical well being and how best to balance care and well-being. Staff appear welcoming and courteous whenever I visit announced or unannounced and this impression is also confirmed by
other family members. A review has highlighted actions which will be cause for feedback going forward.

From first visit we knew Tower Bridge was the place to provide long-term care for Dad. The lady in admin was very supportive and kept us aware of what was happening while waiting for a place. Dad is now settled in and doing extremely well. He is friends with all the staff and we have the peace of mind
he is safe. We visit daily to see Dad, the staff are always welcoming.

Review from Bridget L (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 December 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My father was 93 years old when he arrived at Tower Bridge. He had vascular dementia and type 2 diabetes. He had been quite anxious in his last care situation (extra care sheltered housing) but when he came to Tower Bridge he seemed happy and content. Although this was partly due to his increased lack
of understanding of his situation, the care and kindness of all the staff contributed hugely to make his last months comfortable, secure and happy.

I have just 'delivered' my father in law for 2 weeks respite/trial stay. We were welcomed and settled and I was invited to join for lunch. This was delicious and served with care and dignity, staff assisting those not able to feed themselves, showed such kindness, empathy and respect - a clear, mutual
and positive regard.
We were shown around with deep care and interest in my father in law. Thank you all for your kindness on day one. I hope it continues.

I was satisfied with my mothers care at Tower Bridge Care Home. The manager at the time my mother was there was very accessible so any concerns would be dealt with swiftly. Some staff were better than others, some were excellent but overall I was happy with mum's care and even with challenging behaviour
the staff were patient and dealt with mum fairly and kindly.

The impression I got is that the home is convenient for the needs of my cousin and it's central to her borough, which she is used to.


The staff look friendly and caring. The residents look happy.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.316)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.316) out of 10 for Tower Bridge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.9 out of 5 from 21 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 4.455 for Tower Bridge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (137 Excellents x 5) + (102 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 257 Ratings = 4.455
  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 4.861 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tower Bridge Care Home is based on 21 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 122 registered maximum number of service users is 24.4. 21 Positive Reviews ÷ 24.4 = 0.861
  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.
