Parkfield House Nursing Home is an attractive and comfortable nursing home in the quiet, but easily accessible residential area of Hillingdon in West London.

The CQC has rated the home as 'good' overall with 'outstanding' in the 'responsive' category (March 2019), reflecting a flexible approach to individual choice and continuity of care.

This elegant and listed 39-room home has been carefully refurbished and converted into delightful accommodation while retaining some original features. The bedrooms are spread over three floors. They vary in size and shape depending on where they are in the house, and each has its own character. Residents are encouraged to personalise their room with pictures, family photographs, mementos and favourite items of furniture.

Each room is equipped with an ensuite toilet and washroom as well as a TV, nurse-call system and an adjustable automatic bed. The rooms are well-ventilated with controllable under-floor heating so that the temperature is just right for the resident.

There is lift access to all floors, and both the home and garden are fully wheelchair accessible. The spacious lounges are comfortably furnished and equipped with TVs, games and books. The and dedicated hair salon provides on-site hairdressing services and is popular with residents.

Nursing and care staff are available 24/7 on each floor, supported by dedicated teams of kitchen, activities, facilities and housekeeping staff. They provide person-centred nursing, palliative and dementia care, as well as short-term care for those who need some looking after following a stay in hospital or their carers and families are temporarily unable to care for them.

The large garden offers plenty of comfortable seating spaces for residents and visitors to enjoy on warm days, while the secure keypad access in and out is reassuring for residents and their relatives.

Since my mum arrived at this home from the last home, she has vastly improved in health and wellbeing. She's been well looked after here and when we visit her the staff are all so friendly and helpful. This is the best place we could have wished for her.

Reply from Wendy Bristow, Home Manager at Parkfield House Nursing Home

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such an amazing review. We pride ourselves on the care and support we provide for all of our residents and their loved ones so it is all the more encouraging for the team to hear that this is your experience of us and that we have made a vast improvement to mum's health and well-being. I am so lucky to be working alongside such a wonderful team and I shall take great pleasure in feeding back your lovely comments to them. Thank you once again.

I found the care home to be very clean, the staff very efficient and friendly. It had a very impressive facade with beautiful gardens to enjoy. There were several activities on offer for residents and you are given a choice of either joining in or staying in your room! I would recommend it to anyone
who is looking for care.

We were hugely impressed on our visit for the wonderful cupcake day! Super organised and ready for anything, the staff’s caring support always shines out! The baking is exceptional, beautiful and delicious! Cannot thank all the staff enough for everything today and always.

Reply from Wendy Bristow, Home Manager at Parkfield House Nursing Home

Hi Rowena, many thanks for your kind comments. We were so impressed by the hugely generous response to our cupcake day, an annual event that our residents and staff really enjoy preparing for. We are blessed to have such supportive families and a wonderful local community - both were incredible sources of strength during the pandemic. We are keeping our fingers crossed for better times ahead!

My mother has been at Parkfield House Nursing Home for 5 years, in that time she has been well cared for. The staff are very caring and my mother responds well to them. There is always a happy atmosphere and the home always smells clean. During covid, we have not had to worry about how mum is, because
we know she is being well looked after and in the best place.

Reply from Wendy Bristow, Home Manager at Parkfield House Nursing Home

Hi Pat, what a kind review! It's so nice to hear that you think that your mother is well looked after in a clean, safe and happy environment. She's certainly a big personality and has become a great favourite with our staff since she arrived all those years ago. We're pleased to say that she's also gone from strength to strength. There have been difficult times recently, thanks to the pandemic, but we are hoping (like everyone else!) that the worst is now behind us.

My older sister spent the last 5 months at Parkfield House. Sadly she passed away recently, but the staff were so professional, understanding and most of all caring. I cannot fault her treatment and would like to thank every one of them for making a very sad time, bearable. And for also making time
to make sure I was coping and taking care of myself. From the lovely lady who does the laundry, the domestics, office staff, HCAs and nurses - a very caring team, who are constantly busy and being buzzed by residents endlessly. But they still smile and continue to do their job with the utmost professionalism. Thank you all again.

Reply from Iulia Balanici, Clinical Manager at Parkfield House Nursing Home

Thank you for your positive and heartfelt review. We are pleased that you felt our whole team looked after your late sister with understanding, compassion and cheerfulness. She is much missed at the home and we are, of course, all very sorry for your loss. We would like to wish you and your family the very best for the future.

The staff showed kindness to my mother making her feel welcome and safe. Helping her with all her needs. Nothing was too much trouble. The communication was brilliant, able to phone at any time for information or to speak to my mother. My wife and I were both happy that she was in a safe place and putting
our minds at ease.

Reply from Shawndell Barker RGN, Home Manager at Parkfield House Nursing Home

Dear Peter, many thanks for your very kind words. It was both a privilege and a pleasure to look after her during the time that she was with us. Now that she has moved on, her presence is much missed by all the staff and the other residents. We would like to offer our very best wishes to her, yourself and the rest of the family. We very much appreciate that you have always been so supportive of the home.

Reply from Shawndell Barker, Home Manager at Parkfield House Nursing Home

Dear A E, thank you so much for your kind review. We are grateful for your generous words and pleased that you feel satisfied with our care and support. It has been a real pleasure to meet you and your family and to care for your mother. We feel strongly that you and your sister are very much part of our Parkfield family, just as your mother is. We are also so pleased that you like our food. Before lockdown you would often visit over the lunchtime period and have lunch with us, so you know first-hand what our menu is like! We do work hard to ensure that our meals are nutritious, enjoyable and suitable for all requirements. We look forward to seeing you at the home again soon.

The home, set in an old Manor house, has a quality of care to match the congeniality of the physical surroundings. My aunt has become more secure and happier in herself since arriving at Parkfield. The core care services are all in place and appear to be managed with competence and discretion. Similarly,
communications to me are always pertinent and sufficient.

Reply from Vicky Croton, Canford Healthcare at Parkfield House Nursing Home

Hi Mark, many thanks for your positive review. We are delighted you feel that your aunt is in such good hands and you are kept regularly updated about her health and wellbeing. Our staff enjoy looking after her and she is a very important part of our family here at Parkfield House.

Although we have not been able to visit our auntie during this time, we have received telephone updates and also a Skype conference call with her.
She really enjoyed speaking and seeing members of her family, this was the first time she had used any form of technology apart from a normal landline and
she loved it.
Although we cannot visit, we know from our normal visits that she is in very good hands and is being well looked after.
The staff always go that extra step to make her happy and content.

Reply from Vicky Croton, Canford Healthcare at Parkfield House Nursing Home

Hi Mike, many thanks for your positive review. We are delighted that you feel that your aunt is in good hands and being well looked after. During a difficult and worrying time for relatives we have worked hard to ensure that they are able to keep in touch with and see – if only virtually – their loved ones via Skype and Facetime. Your aunt has certainly learned a new skill and we’ve seen how much she enjoys using it! We have recently resumed visits to the home – at this stage by appointment only – and I know that she will be looking forward to seeing you soon.

As a family, we are all extremely happy with the difficult decision of finding a nursing home for our dad. He receives daily care from the caring staff and is often encouraged to participate in organised activities. We feel that, at Parkfield, he is safe, well-fed and happy.
Parkfield has become part
of our "family" and dad has become part of theirs.

Following 3 years of frequent admissions to hospital with recurrent falls, a decline in cognition and diagnosis of Dementia with Lewy Body, with a heavy heart our family made the decision that mum needed to be placed in a care home.


Mum came to Parkfield on 05/11/2018. Since then she has been well

cared for by friendly, dedicated and caring staff. The staff at Parkfield take time to really get to know the residents and that is so important for their well-being.


I know that mum is in the best place she could possibly be and I know the rest of the family feel the same. The manager and her team run a tight but friendly ship and long may it continue!

Having supported my mum in her home up until the devastating news of her terminal illness, the thought of my mum going into a nursing home was both overwhelming and frightening for both of us but the support given by all the staff has made a difficult time for me more bearable. The staff are amazing.
Thank you to everyone at Parkfield House Nursing Home.

I have found management and staff so very helpful. It's not easy to have to place your mother in a nursing home. Anything that I have asked for has been done. My mother is well looked after, when she needs new clothes or makeup I am told about it. I know that my mum is safe and cared for. I could even
say loved. Thank you. Was very sad to see we no longer have a bus. As a family, I know my mother enjoyed the outings or just a drive. We should have been consulted.

We have now linked in with a company who will be supporting our team to take our community out on bus trips at least three times per month.

Having looked after my wife for 14 years, I now feel relieved that she is in friendly and caring hands and in such a safe environment. After transfer from hospital more than three weeks ago to become a resident here, her health and awareness have markedly improved. As we do look forward to further progress,
I currently feel happy to make almost daily visits to help, particularly with access to fresh air and sunshine in the lovely garden.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.784)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.784) out of 10 for Parkfield House Nursing Home 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 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.784 for Parkfield House Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (104 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 125 Ratings = 4.784

  • 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 Parkfield House Nursing Home is based on 11 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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8, which has been reached with 11 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.
