My husband could not have been cared for in a better way. He was shown and dealt with great love and respect in every way. As relatives, we were shown great respect and could not have had better attention and care. All the carers knew their responsibilities and performed their duties with sensitivity
and great care. Thank you for your care in every way.

Thank you so much for your kind words, we're glad you and your husband felt respected.

Lovely care home, staff caring. Lots of activities to keep family members stimulated. Visiting family members always made welcome.
Lovely communal area called Pillars allows family and friends of residents to visit outside of rooms.

I am really impressed by the care provided at Gibraltar Nursing Home. The staff have been wonderful in looking after my dad. He always seems to be doing fun activities, like playing games or spending time with animals. The facilities and grounds are brilliant - clean, homey and in nature.

from Susan R (Daughter of Resident) published on 19 January 2024

Mum has been a resident at Gibraltar House for a while now and I think because of the ‘Street’ names, she feels she is in her own home with staff and other residents being friends and neighbours. This is great, far better than feeling she needs to go home. Staff at all levels are very friendly and approachable
keeping family well informed as to what is occurring with Mum and at Gibraltar House. Myself and Mum particularly enjoyed the Christmas Day lunch organised. It was great to be able to share the day with Mum and was a very happy day. We thank all involved in the organisation required to ensure so. We look forward to participating in future events with Mum. As a family, it is fabulous to be able to meet with Mum in your ‘Pillars’ cafe. Mum can often be found down there enjoying a cuppa and her favourite cakes with some of her many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. We can also get sandwiches if we need from your lovely kitchen staff. Thanks to all the staff for looking after Mum so well for us.

My mother has been at Gibraltar Care Village for several years. She is a very nervous and anxious lady, but the care she has received whilst there is outstanding. She is kept occupied with craft work and singing and is extremely happy, so thank you to all the carers.

from Nicola N (Daughter of Resident) published on 11 October 2023
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

I cannot thank the care staff enough for the care and dignity they showed my mum. She went to live at Gibraltar in December 2022. She had dementia and was bed bound. Mum settled in well, the staff obviously made her feel safe and comfortable and that was good enough for me. My dad ended up a resident
too, as he went into hospital for an operation and also went into Gibraltar for respite. When it was time for him to go home, he didn't want to. He wanted to stay at Gibraltar to be with Mum (they were next door to each other). But, sadly my mum sadly passed away 28th August 2023 and the staff paid extra attention to make sure my dad was ok. All staff are caring and compassionate. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be many activities, unless certain carers are on, then there is some sort of entertainment. The cleaner on floor two is lovely, management are lovely and if there is anything that is bothering you, just go and talk to them and it will be sorted. This is a lovely home.

Staff are excellent, responsive and communicative. They have been under significant pressure during the last two and a half years. They have done their utmost to reduce the impact of Covid restrictions and the alienation of residents from relatives. Covid has also reduced activities and when this reduces,
staff will be able to resume. However, Covid appears to remain a clear threat at present. I remind myself constantly that the staff are doing something I could not.

Reply from Marketing Department, Marketing Department at Gibraltar Nursing Home

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us this thoughtful review. Our team has worked tirelessly to ensure the best continuation of life possible for everyone here despite restrictions and it means the world to us when this is recognized. We promise to continue doing all we can to deliver the best care to all who live here!

Overall care and carers are good but the continuity of care could improve as the staff are often moved to other floors of the home. Elderly and vulnerable people need continuity as they get to know their carers and trust them. Also, the carers know how the residents like things done and also any quirks
they may have. It can be upsetting to find those they trust have moved and they have to get used to new carers and nurses.

I have nothing but praise for all the love and attention offered to my parents. Sadly we lost Mum in March - staff attended the funeral, and extra attention given to Dad since has been amazing. Every member of staff, from reception to domestic, is amazing.

Reply from Marketing Department, Marketing Department at Gibraltar Nursing Home

Steve, thank you so much for your wonderful comments. It goes without saying that your mum is so missed by us all at Gibraltar, but we are still so lucky to be able to care for your dad and continue to make him smile. He is so lucky to have a lovely, caring family. Thank you for bringing such joy to Gibraltar every time you visit.

This is an amazing home. Staff show such love and care to all of the family members. My mother was a resident here for twelve and a half years and was truly loved by all. This gave me great comfort when I couldn’t be with her. Unfortunately, Mum passed away in May and I have to say that the end-of-life
care she received was awe-inspiring. I will always be indebted to the wonderful staff. I wish the two new leaders all the very best and I know that the home is in very good hands. Thank you all.

from E R (Daughter of Resident) published on 4 July 2022

Avoid at all costs. Reception and 'communal' areas are like a ghost town. His bedroom was not particularly clean - drink rings on tables, a substance on the bed ('that's ok its thickener'), no TV. Corridors look tired and grubby, with a radio station playing clearly to the staff's tastes rather than
residents'. No garden, v little parking.
For the 8 weeks he was there, staff didn't get him out of bed to use the toilet (he was immobile, not incontinent), and only began to sit him out in a chair after a physio saw him and shook things up. There were no activities, and rarely someone on reception, but if needed - eg. to be released from the building! - always plenty of staff smoking and chatting outside.
Many care staff were very good and cared, but were understaffed. On a number of occasions, he waited over an hr to get a response to his buzzer. Thankfully in a new home, all changed instantly - he was got up to use the toilet, up in a chair, up for meals, offered activities daily.

Reply from Marketing Department, Marketing Department at Gibraltar Nursing Home

Hi,

We’re extremely sorry and upset to hear of your experience with our home. We want to assure you we have taken your feedback seriously and have investigated the matters you raise.

Unfortunately, at the time your father was staying with us we experienced a covid 19 breakout. Our infection control protocols, in accordance with Government guidance necessitated the prioritisation of safety and this entailed isolating family members in their own rooms. We do not wish to use covid as an excuse for not meeting our own operating standards. However, the challenges faced required many human decisions to be made at speed; some of which, upon reflection may have been done differently.

We can’t express how devastating it was to disrupt our usual routines, but at the heart of it all, the safety of our family members remained the top priority.

If you have any further feedback about how we can improve our home, please do get in touch directly by email.

Best Wishes, The Gibraltar Team.

Excellent in many respects, but one strong recommendation. If you have a very deaf resident prone to losing his one outlet to communication PLEASE would the person in immediate charge take responsibility for looking after said hearing aid so it's available for when he has visitors - even if it's a spare.
It's been allowed to drift for our friend and the results are not good.

Gibraltar House is definitely a 'care' home.
All of the staff 'care' about the residents and their families.
The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated.
The staff are attentive and have treated my parents with great respect and dignity.
They are all so very helpful, nothing is too much trouble.
I
am so grateful and thankful to have found a safe 'home' for my very special parents.
God bless you.

Food is not always cooked properly. Often late and just warm. Quality of food poor: on a few occasions ran out of some food and coffee! Care is not consistent and varies to quite a degree. Cleaning is very poor. Bedside tables often dirty. Strong smell on some streets. Rooms need decorating top to bottom.
Very difficult to speak to management as not freely available. Phone calls not returned. The Drinks jug that is in the room is NOT always refilled I have had to ask for this. Call response is very very slow.

Mum is well looked after.
Mostly kept clean 8/10
There appears to be a lack of regular activities. Whilst things are put on the table for people to do, there appears to be little encouragement to stimulate people to participate.
Nursing care is also good. Sometimes, people have to wait a long time
to be taken to the toilet due to a lack of staff.
Invoicing is atrocious. I have had emails demanding we pay up for a deficit when my mum has been £100 in credit. My mum has been invoiced my another lady of the same name.
We have asked for monthly statements and they always show a minus, when the minus is for them not my mum.
It never looks like a bank statement. It is very confusing.
