The staff are excellent, any issues are addresses and rectified, management is very approachable. Admin is very good at her job, and also another member of staff. Room needs a bit updated - furniture a bit tired.
Overall the care my mother-in-law receives is excellent.
The job staff do they all
need a medal and of course a wage rise.

Review from L M (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
The standard of care at this home after 8pm is extremely poor. There are clearly not enough staff in the evenings, and it shows in the level of attention residents receive-especially those who are bedbound. They're often left lying down for hours without being sat up or offered anything to keep them
comfortable or entertained, like having the TV turned on.


Dinner is served very early, around 4:30pm, and after that, bedbound residents aren't offered so much as tea or toast until after 9:30pm-if at all. In some cases, residents in their rooms are completely overlooked.


Even more concerning, some are being left in wet or soiled conditions overnight because they are not being checked or changed often enough. This is completely unacceptable and needs urgent improvement. Families trust care homes to treat their loved ones with dignity, and unfortunately, that trust is being seriously let down here.

Review from Jacqueline M (Sister of Resident) published on 3 October 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The moment we visited Eastbank, the staff welcomed and the energy was genuine and so professional. We had visited other care homes but Eastbank was head and shoulders above the rest. My brother was frail on discharge from the hospital, so the team got to work, gently encouraging him to regain his appetite
and giving him the confidence to be mobile from months in bed.


The management team have an open-door policy for both staff and relatives which provided us confidence in my brother's care and we could easily talk to staff about any tweaks we needed to make for him. Eastbank is more than a care provider they are life savers both for the resident and family. We know they extended my brother's life by 18 months. They also supported us in the final months of his life and we will be forever grateful.

We as a family have had a delightful experience with the staff who have looked after our mum. The staff have always kept us informed of our mother's health and wellbeing. They are courteous and when our mum was not in good health you could see they shared our concern.

My nana was a resident at this care home. The staff looked after her brilliantly and she always had her nails lovely and painted and enjoyed the activities. When she was palliative they went above and beyond to make her comfortable and also to be supportive and accommodating for my family during a difficult
time. I am very thankful and grateful for the care they gave her.

My gran recently moved into this home and we could not praise it enough. The staff have really took care of my gran and their care is second to none. I really could not fault the staff, they have a lovely approach and nothing is ever a bother to them. My gran has really settled into the home and as
a concerned family we could not ask for anything better. The assurance that our beloved gran is in the most amazing care and feels at home and is settled is something we could not be any more grateful for. Big thanks to all the staff.

Current Review Score: 8.9 (8.878)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.9 (8.878) out of 10 for Eastbank Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 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 4.286 for Eastbank Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (76 Excellents x 5) + (28 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (8 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 126 Ratings = 4.286
  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 4.592 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Eastbank Care Home is based on 9 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 = 3.9
    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 65 registered maximum number of service users is 13. 9 Positive Reviews ÷ 13 = 0.692
  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.
