Review from T S (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 July 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The care home is situated in a picturesque spot. The staff are plentiful, friendly, helpful and efficient. Residents are treated with respect, great kindness, and an affectionate attitude.
The care home, though not 'posh' in presentation is, without fail, kept extremely fresh and clean. (Freshness
is genuine and without chemical smells).
My Mother has been a resident for 4 and a half years and has been kept safe, well cared for, and happy throughout. Residents here suffer mainly from old age and dementia, so probably unsuitable for those needing stimulating conversation.

Review from Michael P (Power of Attorney of Resident) published on 16 August 2023 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was the power of attorney for a dear friend who had dementia and Alzheimer's and spent over two years at Gibson's Lodge Nursing Home. In all the time, and many visits I made, I was always extremely happy with all aspects of the home. Their care for my friend was exemplary, both physical, and in terms
of dignity/kindness for someone who had a very difficult illness. Everything was done to a superb standard and the staff, to a person, were kind and caring, not only to my friend, but to the other residents. It is a job few could do or do so well. The management also had many difficulties to deal with and again they were always professional and I can only praise them and their hard work for my friend. Perhaps the only improvement might be to the physical building, which takes a bit of a battering as is to be expected, but I am sure only friends and relatives notice these things. That said, the bathrooms were always spotless as was my friend's room (and person), as were the communal areas. I cannot recommend this home highly enough.

Review from Paula B (Niece of Resident) published on 5 August 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My uncle was in the home and was cared for by all the staff. They were very friendly and helpful, and he was well looked after until he passed away. My auntie was staying there at the end of his life and is still there as she cannot stay at home on her own. All the staff are very friendly and take good
care of my auntie and the other residents that stay here. I'm very pleased my auntie is there and being well looked after. I have no concerns.

Review from Marion S (Wife of Resident) published on 9 November 2015 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My husband has been a dementia patient at Gibson's Lodge for eight years. He is always clean and well-shaven (even is his to prevent dandruff) His clothes and bed linen are clean and varied. He is totally bedridden, has to be fed pureed food and liquids. The staff are always helpful and caring. There
seems to be a lot of paperwork. The home is regularly decorated and the staff try to put on entertainment for special days it is a multicultural environment without friction. There is usually a Christmas party visiting, entertainers, valentines day. Trips to the seaside, summer bbq. Lounge has a large screen for videos.

Current Review Score: 7.6 (7.594)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.6 (7.594) out of 10 for Gibson's Lodge Nursing 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 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 4.500 for Gibson's Lodge Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (7 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 4.5
  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 3.094 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Gibson's Lodge Nursing Home is based on 1 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 = 3
    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 53 registered maximum number of service users is 10.6. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 10.6 = 0.094
  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.
