About
Gibson's Lodge is a nursing home with 53 registered beds, on a quiet, leafy suburban street in south London close to a park and within reach of shops and transport. It supports adults living with advanced dementia and a range of mental health needs, and it also takes some people whom other services have found hard to care for. Staff are trained to manage challenging behaviour. Rooms include single and shared options, and every bedroom has a 24-hour call system.
Meals are cooked on site and draw on British, Caribbean and African cooking, with dishes from several traditions on the menu. Weekly activities are offered, and residents and staff come from a range of cultural backgrounds. The Care Quality Commission rates the home Requires Improvement overall, and the same grade applies to each of the five key questions: safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led.
