I visited my father yesterday, and I just wanted to comment on how happy and healthy he seemed. I don't live locally and it's so comforting to know that he is in good hands, even though his dementia can make him challenging at times. It is a credit to the staff how he is flourishing at the moment. We
thought that there was a lovely atmosphere at the home and all the staff were friendly and helpful. We are very grateful for the care which he is receiving, especially after a difficult time in his last home.

I have visited my friend on three occasions now. She has dementia and has not been out of her room on my visits. I can only comment on part of the survey. I have felt safe while visiting having been given a temperature check, flow test, mask, gloves, and apron. My friend's room has been clean and tidy
with many of her own belongings to make it feel homely. She has been treated with kindness and patience while I have been present, and the staff seem to know her well.

My first visit to my Mum's room since she arrived at Park View. Lovely surroundings, view of the garden and trees is very calming. So pleased to see the lovely relationships she has with staff. Her room was very personal with many family photos and personal effects. In what had been a difficult year
for all I would like to thank all the staff and fellow residents for making my Mum so welcome. I always sensed this but it has been wonderful to be with her again and see it for myself. Your hard work is appreciated so much. Thank you.

My wife has been at Park View Warwick for several months. It was a devastating time for our family. Such a wonderful wife suddenly struck down with dementia to a point that I could not manage. Now she has the best care and loves her time at Park View. Although her memory fades I am so pleased for her
and feel somewhat contented.

I had not been able to visit Mum since March due to Coronavirus so was thrilled to be told that it was possible to have a pre-booked garden visit for half an hour.
I was so impressed by how safely the visit was set up and so happy and relieved to see my mum looking so cheerful, relaxed and well cared
for. When the virus first stopped visits mum was extremely distressed and anxious, but the staff on all levels at Park View have worked miracles to help her to cope with not being able to have the visitors that she was accustomed to seeing on a regular basis. Thank you, Park View, you truly are heroes.

Park View really cares for its residents. I have never seen any member of staff show anything other than love and patience. Mum always looks well cared for and says the food is excellent. There are many activities available and residents are encouraged into the sheltered garden when weather permits.
The high standards have kept Park View Covid free, an accolade in itself. Thank you Park View.

My mum was admitted to Park View just before Christmas as she could no longer cope on her own in her bungalow, at first she was a bit nervous as it was a big change in her life, but right from the start, the staff made her very welcome always talking to her and making her feel a part of the home. The
noticeable change in her behaviour since she has been there is remarkable and it seems as though the clock has been turned back and my mum is her old self interacting joking with people and making friends. I cannot thank the staff and residents enough for making my mum's life better.

Park View is an example of excellence in residential care.
I cannot praise the staff too highly. Their care for residents is always good-humoured, cheerful and professional. The atmosphere is always welcoming and since lockdown photos and other media have kept us in touch with what is going on on a
day to day basis.
The whole family is so glad that we chose Park View for Mum.

When our nan had a stroke last year, we were all extremely anxious about her health and how it had deteriorated in hospital. We were very close to losing her. She could not return home and we were all concerned about her going into 'a home'. She was referred to Park View in Warwick just before Christmas
and from the day that we all met the staff we knew that this home was very special. The staff are fantastic - friendly, kind and extremely caring and the environment is cheerful, clean and welcoming. They provide ample opportunities for their residents - she's always busy, doing this and that club and the stimulation and frequent contact with other residents has given her something to look forward to each day, as well as keeping her mind and body active. She's her old self again - smiles, laughs and has a positive outlook on the future. The staff have become our second family and I speak for us all when I say that we are extremely thankful to each and every one of them for keeping ournan safe and for making the home, her home.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

The home is well run and the majority of the care staff are kind, considerate, friendly and competent. There are exceptions but these I believe are mainly temporaries. I think temporaries (from care agency) serve a purpose but cannot generally match employed members who have worked there for a time
and are more familiar with the patients. Having same staff on a regular basis is one of the most important issues for residents and therefore I believe agency staff are a false economy and the extra cost would be better spent paying the good regular staff better. It is my belief that some of these regulars would work more hours if given the opportunity and lessen the use of agency staff. I also believe that the staff are sometimes overloaded and this results in mistakes e.g, it cannot be right that the resident can be left without the call button within easy reach, especially when they have no mobility to retrieve it. Occasionally promises to do things like return with a cup of tea, etc, is forgotten.

I would like to extend a huge 'thank you' to all the staff at Park View care home. You have gone over and above the call of duty to keep my mother safe and sound in these very troubling times. The staff have always been polite and helpful whenever I ring to speak to my mother, which is many times per
week. I am also bowled over by the facetime service you have offered so that my mother can see me and hopefully remember me when I am able to travel to see her once more. You have all been amazing, and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Keep safe, keep well and keep smiling. With all my love and gratitude.

My Dad was really happy here. He was pleased that staff members were friendly and would often stop to chat. He was very much impressed by the food which was of a good quality. The only downside was sadly the other residents, who through no fault of their own, reminded him of Mum (she has Alzheimer's).

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.796)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.796) out of 10 for Park View 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 32 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 31 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 4.796 for Park View is calculated as follows: ( (334 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (12 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 372 Ratings = 4.796

  • 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 Park View is based on 31 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 31 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.

I’ve gained vast experience of working in Health and Social care and awareness of CQC Expectations. I have NVQ 5 in Health and social care management and am a Qualified Moving and Handling Trainer. I joined Park View in March 2023, and have made a lot of positive changes around the home. My team and I strive to ensure Park View always provide excellent care to the highest standards.

I’ve been a dedicated Care Assistant for 3 years, and I truly take pride in making a positive difference in the lives of our residents. One of the most rewarding aspects of my role is the interaction I have with them, whether it's simply chatting or taking part in activities. I especially enjoy it when entertainers visit the home, and I love seeing our residents smile and engage. Visits from school children are another highlight, bringing joy and a sense of connection to our community.


Although I am retired, I find great fulfilment in my role at Park View, which has become a cherished hobby. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active by walking, swimming, and taking campervan holidays, embracing the freedom and adventure that comes with it.

Hi, I'm Sheila, the Home Administrator at Park View. I've been with the team for 7 years, and I truly love the variety of work I get to do here. Every day brings something new, and I enjoy working with both the staff and residents. No two days are ever the same—each one unfolds with its own surprises. What I find most rewarding is seeing how much of a difference we make in the residents' lives. Whether it's a smile, a chat, or just spending time together, it’s those moments of appreciation that make it all worth it. Their joy puts a smile on my face too.


I'm proud to have been recognised as Staff Member of the Month, which was such an honour. Outside of work, I’m a self-proclaimed “workaholic!” I even climbed the Three Peaks for the residents’ fund and raised over £1,200. When I’m not walking, I love spending time with my grandchildren, reading, or working on a jigsaw puzzle—though I never seem to have enough time for that!


Every day at Park View is an opportunity to make a positive impact, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything!
