Excellent service and care, all the staff and carers are so nice and welcoming. I can see the carers take pride in the caring of the residents and facilities are kept clean and tidy. My only issue is the laundry can get mixed up and clothes go missing.

My mother receives excellent care and she has Alzheimer's, at times she can be hard work but all the staff provide good care to my mother and are highly experienced. I'm happy that my mother does get included in this they do in the care home and she has her hair cut regularly. We're satisfied that my
mother is in good hands, Thanks to all the carers at Holmpark.

My friend has been at Holmpark for a couple of years now and has always been well looked after, is happy and settled. The staff take care to get to know the residents and there is a pleasant atmosphere around the home. Residents are free to spend their time in the lounge or in their own rooms and in
the summer can also use the garden with supervision. My friend always enjoys the food at mealtimes and sometimes there are extra snacks in the afternoon which residents enjoy. The managers are pleasant, obliging and helpful as are the admin staff. The home is clean and well maintained. People work well as a team. The building is a converted house and it maintains something of a homely feel. It is easily accessible by bus and car from Birmingham city centre and has adequate parking space for visitors who are welcome at most times. From time to time there are special events and also regular meetings for relatives and families where ideas can be put forward for activities or new ideas.

Rooms are lovely and clean. Staff are extremely friendly, always ready to listen and respond to suggestions if they can be met. Over the months I have seen excellent interaction with residents and my mum.
At least I can relax, having peace of mind, knowing my mum loves the staff and they love her.
Plus she is safe.
I would certainly recommend it to others.

My husband spent almost three weeks at this home and has no regrets. He was treated properly and had peace and quiet time from home. Staff were ok, they treated my husband well. The food was very good. I would recommend this place to anyone. I say thanks to everyone that I came across.

My mum is happy at this care home but I do feel that the building is not looked after enough.
I was told that I shouldn't use one of the lifts as it keeps getting stuck with people inside it!
I also feel that there is a lack of stimulus for the residents. Not enough activities for them. For example,
in June 2024, there was no recognition of the D-Day 80th Anniversary, no bunting etc. How boring just to sit and watch TV all day!

Reply from Nissy Varughese, Manager at Holmpark

Thank you for taking the time to review Holmpark. We are pleased that you rate our staff as very good and we are sorry that some areas have fallen short of expectations. Our lift is now fixed. Our residents chose to celebrate VE Day, which included visiting entertainment. Our daily, weekly and monthly activities are arranged with our residents' input. I would appreciate the opportunity to discuss your concerns at a mutually convenient time.

My sister is a new resident. My overview so far is a good one. The impression I get is a nice care home with present and caring staff. Other than that she, as stated, is new to Holmpark so cannot comment objectively any further.

Everyone is welcoming and Mum is very well looked after. Her room is well-equipped and comfortable.
The staff are always so nice and friendly. Mum always says how nice the food is and she can always ask for anything extra (cakes, biscuits, etc). The staff check her regularly and take the time to make
sure she is ok.

This care home is awesome. From day one, my relative has felt at home and safe. The staff work as a team in the interest of the residents. I have also found them to be excellent at engaging and taking into consideration the needs of extended family members. The care home is spotless and actively encourages
residents to engage in pre-planned entertainment. I would certainly recommend.

My mother went into the home as she couldn't cope any more in her flat and found it difficult to do normal everyday things.
My mother has settled in well at the home and has been made welcome.
The staff are all very helpful and knowledgeable about their jobs.
I have been notified on several occasions
when Mom has had a few falls and other medical problems and the staff have always contacted me regarding these issues.
All in all, I am very pleased with the care Mom has received.

My mother moved in July 2023, she settled in very well. Staff are very friendly, and make you welcome as you arrive during the visit. The carers work very hard and have lots of patience. My brother and I are impressed with the care home the only thing we are not happy with is her clothes, sometimes
items go missing. Also, she has items of someone else's clothing. Including Men's pants! Overall we are pleased with the care Mum is having.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.435)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.435) out of 10 for Holmpark is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.435 for Holmpark is calculated as follows: ( (175 Excellents x 5) + (55 Goods x 4) + (16 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (13 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 262 Ratings = 4.435

  • 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 Holmpark is based on 20 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 39 registered maximum number of service users is 7.8, which has been reached with 20 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.
