Everyone at Gedling is proud to share some wonderful news: the home has been awarded a 5* food hygiene rating, the highest possible score, following a recent inspection.
The rating reflects the dedication, care, and attention shown every day by the team, particularly those working behind the scenes in the kitchen to prepare safe, nutritious, and enjoyable meals for residents.

A Commitment to Safety and Wellbeing
Food plays an important role in daily life at Gedling. Mealtimes are not just about nourishment, but also comfort, routine, and enjoyment. Achieving a 5* rating reassures residents and their families that meals are prepared in a clean, well-organised environment where food safety is always a top priority.
Inspectors highlighted the home’s high standards of cleanliness, careful food handling, and strong systems in place to ensure meals are prepared safely and consistently. These standards are maintained every day, not just for inspections, as part of the home’s ongoing commitment to resident wellbeing.
Above all, the home remains committed to creating a place where residents feel safe, supported, and truly at home – one well-prepared meal at a time.
