Mum came into Glebe in March 2018 as she was no longer able to cope at home. We were sad that this time had come but couldn't have wished for a nicer home for Mum to come to. Everyone is friendly and happy. The food is very nice, the rooms are kept clean and the laundry is collected daily. We know Mum
is being well looked after and if there are any health issues a doctor is called to give Mum a once over. All in all, we are very happy with Glebe House. They do an amazing job.

As a family, we have been most impressed with the care given to our mum by the staff at Glebe House. For over 3 years, they have diligently cared for her and we have been regularly contacted when the need arose. The staff are most cheerful and supportive of her and take the greatest care to meet her
needs. The atmosphere at Glebe House is warm and welcoming and there's a variety of activities on offer from visiting owls to singers. We are grateful that mum is in a safe and caring home.

The care in this home is outstanding. Unending patience in difficult times. Cheerfulness and respect when dealing with residents. Management always available to help and advise. My brother being in this setting has lifted a huge load off my mind. He is safe. I am so impressed that I am now a volunteer,
helping with activities. Keep up the good work!

We have always found all the staff to be friendly to us and our Uncle. They treat him with the utmost kindness, always taking the time to make sure he has everything that he wants. The office staff are very prompt in making sure he is well looked after. The food is of a very high standard, always look
appetising. The rooms are kept very clean and tidy and he is always entertained by staff.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.778)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.778) out of 10 for Glebe House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 51 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 50 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.778 for Glebe House is calculated as follows: ( (477 Excellents x 5) + (118 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 603 Ratings = 4.778

  • b) 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Glebe House is based on 50 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 40 registered maximum number of service users is 8, which has been reached with 50 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Joanne Holman

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2008

Jo joined the care sector and Shaw healthcare back in June 2008.
There is not a role in a care home that Jo has not undertaken – she loves a challenge and has helped out in many Shaw homes across the West Sussex region, learning and improving along the way.


Jo enjoys the interactions she has each day with families, health professionals, and of course the lovely residents. Jo commented “Speaking to the residents and listening to their life stories, just knowing you have made a difference to someone’s day, is what makes working in care so wonderful”

Job Title: Service Administrator

Joined: 2015

I started at Glebe House in 2015 as a support worker. I then became a team leader and now I am the administrator.


My mum resided at Glebe House when she needed care, after seeing the fantastic care and support given to her I decided that I wanted to be a part of the Glebe House team.


My role as admin gives me the opportunity to support each of the residents and their families first hand.


I am privileged to meet future residents and their families and ensure that all of their needs are met whilst residing with us.


I love being part of such a supportive and dynamic staff team and spending time with each and every resident.

Job Title: Service Administrator

Joined: 2021

I started my career in Health and Social care back when I was a teenager
I have worked with an entire spectrum of people with differing health needs.


Over the last 11 years working in the care sector, I have gained many skills and achievements, my highest qualification is, Level 5 in Health and Social Care.


In my previous role I was a registered manager at a home for those with mental health needs. I then went on to have a baby girl and decided that I wanted to take a new career path still in the care sector so that I could use the skills and knowledge previously gained to give 100% to my new role.


I joined Glebe House as the second administrator. I enjoy the people I work with and every day is a new challenge, this gives me the opportunity to develop my skills to ensure I am always providing a fantastic service to the people we support and their families.
