Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I can never thank Glebe House Nursing Home enough for their care of my mother in her final days and for my family. They were so respectful and caring to my mother and supportive of me, her daughter. I was allowed to stay in my mother's room in her final days and hours and I, and my family, wanted for
nothing, allowing me to just concentrate on being there for my mother. My mother was a resident there for four years. The staff became my second family.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The home is comfortable, friendly and well kept. The staff are always helpful and kind but there's not enough staff especially to get the residents out into the lovely gardens.
The food can be good but individual need/wants were not always available only when asked for, different/more interesting
food is given (it seems).

A homely environment but like many, I have been unable to go into the home,e (apart from the conservatory) since March 2020. Sadly that is when my father became a resident, so I have been unable to go into his room since he started to stay there.

The staff at Glebe House made my mum's short stay a happy one, even though she did not want to be in a home. She could not praise them enough for their cheerful and friendly staff, who were always so helpful. Excellent food and plenty of it.

My mother spent the last few weeks of her life being cared for at Glebe House. Although visiting was restricted due to COVID, we were impressed by how helpful the staff were in arranging things for us. Mum said she felt safe and cared for by the kind staff. We were happy that the management kept in
touch with us.

A welcoming, well-managed and caring environment for residents at Glebe House. The staff show great kindness and respect, the residents are clearly their first priority and are treated with tremendous patience and empathy. Communication with a resident's family is immediate if the need arises. Safe
and welcoming care home. I would recommend Glebe House to anyone seeking care for a relative.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum was with them just under 2 years and I could not have found a more loving home. The care and love the staff gave to my mum was outstanding. She was treated with dignity and nothing was ever to much trouble. Whenever she needed help they were there. If there were any health problems the doctors
were called straight away to get things sorted. They always kept me updated on things. I could not fault them in any way. They made it possible to see Mum from a distance during lockdown and when she passed away it was handled with dignity, respect and care.
The home was always clean and tidy. Fresh flowers and linen on tables all the time. Any repairs or work needed to maintain the home was carried out to a high standard. Laundry was done well and everything was neat and tidy. Personal care was carefully done and with dignity. The gardens were always full of flowers. Entertainment was always arranged for the residents even during lockdown there was Zoom entertainment as well as things the staff arranged.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mother spent a week in Glebe House for some respite care. Aged 92 she is fit and healthy but was feeling jaded after the long winter and decided she needed a bit of cossetting. She found the facilities, staff, care and food, as well as her accommodation to be excellent. Her general level of alertness
and good health meant that her conversation and interaction with other less robust residents was very compromised but that in no way reflects on the home, more highlights how well she is.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.764)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.764) out of 10 for Glebe House 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 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.814 for Glebe House is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (33 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 210 Ratings = 4.814
  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 4.95 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Glebe House is based on 18 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 = 3.95
    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 43 registered maximum number of service users is 8.6, which has been reached with 18 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.
