The staff are nice. They treat my husband very well. The home is clean, tidy and not smelly. Food is well done. Variety is there and if you want something different the kitchen will provide. Great home. Will recommend to friends.

Mum has been at Gable Court nursing home for 8 years now and last week reached her 100th birthday we had a wondearful party with a beautiful buffet a disco and a wonderful cake and photos of mum myself and family and friends staff worked very hard to decorate the room and make sure mum and all had
a unforgettable day with the Mayor of Ilford presenting her with her card from the King and Queen it was a day that we will never forget and a testament to the care mum has received since she became a resident there a big thankyou to all and hopefully more to come

We visit weekly, the stadf are always smiling and bery welcoming, home is clean and our cousin's room is spacious and airy. We cannot find any faults and are very happy with the overall care for his needs.

Ground floor seems nice, seems to be a regular programme of activities. Just hope that your relative is down there. Unfortunately, residents on upper floors are left in bed all day with just their four walls and an incessant TV to look at. It must be understaffed as noone has time to talk to
residents or their relatives let alone actually pay attention to their needs. No ability to even make a cup of tea for your relative or yourself.
No one says hello to me when I visit and I can spend several hours in the room with my relative without seeing any staff coming in, even though they are supposed to regularly move and feed them. I could easily walk into any room and abuse or steal from other residents as doors are open and noone speaks to you.
I've had relatives in other cares homes outside of london and unfortunately, this place seems more like a prison in comparism

I always find mum to be well turned out, clean and comfortable. Staff are always helpful and can provide me with information I require regarding mums condition or needs. I feel confident that mum is in good hands and that her needs are being met.

The new manager is really lovely. Had a meeting with him yesterday relating to my mum, along with the clinical lead and they were both really lovely, friendly and helpful. All the staff here that I've dealt with have always been very friendly, helpful, informative and are excellent. Weekend access
can be challenging (as there is no weekend receptionist) but apart from that, Mum is very well looked after and safe here. Gable Court is kept very well clean and it is a nice care home. It is very difficult to get Mum to join in activities downstairs in the lounge, so unable to comment on the activities here, but the staff do try and persuade her to go down. Glad Mum is safe and well looked after here.

My mother returned from a short hospital visit to the home but was still feeling quite unwell and exhausted. She didn't want to eat, drink or talk. The carer in question was extremely kind to my mum, spending time with her, reassuring her and comforting her. She encouraged her to ear a little and
drink some water. I would like to this carer to be recognised for her extremely kind and caring attitude.

The staff are all very friendly and kind. The care home is kept very well. My dad was taken very good care of. I would recommend it to anyone. When I called about my dad I was given clear information.

Nursing care team are proactive in the management of relative healthcare needs. Care staff are polite and sympathetic to my aunt's needs and management staff are very facilitative with health care provider interactions. During recent periods of hospitalisation the nursing staff have been actively
engaged regarding admission discharge and have kept us as relatives fully informed which was highly appreciated.
Visior support at weekends could be improved, when staffing levels are lower, it can be challenging to find assistance eg to answer the door, answer questions, get access to additional seating. However support for the residents is still strong.

Gable Court was the only nursing home that would accept my father due to his complex needs assessment. We were extremely grateful that they were able to put 1:1 24-hour care in place. Management and staff were accommodating and helped to ease some of our concerns. My father had very good 1:1 care
and the staff worked extremely hard. He was treated with respect despite some challenging behaviours. The staff and management were fully supportive to us as a family in distress which we appreciated so much.

I attended the summer garden party at Gable Court on the 26th of August. It was clear to see that a lot of thought had gone into planning this event. Having brought down to the garden a number of residents, it began to rain! I was very impressed with how quickly residents were brought into the
shelter of the ground floor communal lounge. There then followed a wonderful afternoon of entertainment with drinks and food, some of which had been prepared by staff, Hats off to the staff for a wonderful event!

Very friendly and caring staff. Today my mum was found to be well hydrated and cheerful. Most of the time spent is found to be pleasant. I asked my mum and she tells me she likes the staff and they treat her well.

Gable Court took very good care of my grandad in his last days.
He was comfortable and treated with dignity.
Nothing was too much to ask in his final days.
The staff are all so lovely and smiley.
It’s so lovely there, so calming and quiet.
They do lots of activities also with the residents.
I’m glad I choose Gable Court for both my grandparents.

Absolutely no problems with the care home. All of the staff always have time to speak to Mum. Would have no issues recommending the home if asked. Nothing seems to have been a problem for the staff, all very helpful and patient.

My father was cared for at Gable Court as his health and mental capacity declined significantly. The care staff were all extremely kind and attentive and I was very pleased with the care that he received.

Looks nice but very unfriendly senior staff. Management is quite good at liaising with relatives. Some senior staff members are all about protecting their job without actually doing their job and very hostile to visiting families.
Mostly about how exterior presentation.
At first glance, looks
good but care staff/"nurses" certainly need more training.

Your home is always clean and tidy. Staff are always helpful and nan is happy here, which is the main thing.
