We can't thank the staff in Collins House enough, they go above and beyond to help with anything we ask.
Very accommodating, they can't do enough for you.
The staff actually treat my dad like a friend, not like it's part of their job.
The only tiny thing we think could do better in Dad's room is
windows or patio door don't open, so when Dad needs a bit of fresh air, he doesn't really get that as he's bedbound, but apart from that, we can't fault anything else.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Parklands Court Care Home

Thank you very much for your review and kind words about Parklands Court and the team in Collins House. Please pop into the office and we can arrange for the maintenance team to attend to the window/door in your dad's room and resolve any issues. Best wishes.

Each and every member of the care staff was amazing. The time they took to look after my aunt was exemplary. They showed compassion and kindness that blew me away. Even in her death, the care was still abundant.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Parklands Court Care Home

Thank you very much for your lovely review and we extend our ongoing condolences for the loss of your dear Aunt. On behalf of the whole team, it was an honour to know her and reassuring to know that we helped make her final days more comfortable.

Good staff and food. And good service and help. Rooms good and clean. Nursing staff good and helpful, in all things. If I had to stop in it would be this home. Rooms could be bigger for people in wheelchairs so they could get out of room by themselves.

The staff are the highlight of Parklands and all deserve to be paid a lot more. They are all so hardworking and caring. They look after my relative with such respect and kindness that I couldn't ask for more. His room is kept clean and tidy. He enjoys the meals and is offered seconds if he wants more.
He is dressed in clean clothes every day. We are self-funding and the fees are crippling but at least I know he is safe and well cared for. I am kept informed of any issues relating to his health, in person or by phone. To improve, I feel staffing needs to be improved further so individual staff members are able to spend more one-to-one time with residents, talking to them and sharing memories or simple activities. I think this may already be in the pipeline. More care needs to be taken with sorting clothing from the laundry as despite having every clothing item individually labelled with sew-in tapes, my relative's clothes still go missing.

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Parklands Court Care Home

Thank you very much for your review and for your kind words about the staff at Parklands Court. We will share this with the team and they will be delighted to receive your compliments. You are correct that we are introducing a new groundbreaking initiative named 'B Happie' which will see more one-to-one time with residents and a whole home approach to activities. We have seen the benefit of this already, it's been fantastic for both the residents and staff and we are sure you will also see this when you are visiting. Thanks again and best wishes.

Our dad has just been moved to this home, previously been in 2 before this one.
Can honestly say it’s the most loveliest of homes, we know Dad is looked after here. The staff are by far the best I have seen and can tell they genuinely care. We thought we would never find anywhere like this.
Thank
you all so much.

Sadly our aunt passed away in December and whilst the care she received was on the whole at a satisfactory level, there is one issue that seems endemic in this organisation that of communication. This has been brought into even sharper focus when we have not received a refund of the original deposit
we had to pay. Contractually this should have been paid within 28 days, in writing this we are at 46 days and still waiting. A newspaper ran an article in 2023 about another Advinia resident that also had issues and I have also communicated with someone that waited 5 months for a refund. You have been warned!

Reply from Paul Lawson, National Sales Manager at Parklands Court Care Home

Hello and thank you for your review. We extend our sincere sympathies on the loss of your aunt and send best wishes to you and your family. We can confirm the refund was paid into your bank account on 16th February and apologise for the delay.

My partner was released from hospital to Elmor House at Parklands Court Care Home several weeks ago for assessment after a number of falls. From day one, safety and security were paramount! Each and every member of staff treated him and all his visitors including myself with dignity and respect at all
times. A challenging career and clearly rewarding. The staff deserve a medal for their hard work and devotion. Be very proud of them all and thank you!

The staff are extremely friendly and caring. They greet care users and relatives with a smile. They go the extra mile to find out what service users want. The staff never give the impression that anything is too much trouble. I feel my relative is safe and also allowed to be independent. Thank you for
everything.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.960)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.960) out of 10 for Parklands Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 12 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 4.592 for Parklands Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (104 Excellents x 5) + (36 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 152 Ratings = 4.592

  • 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 4.368 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Parklands Court Care Home is based on 12 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 163 registered maximum number of service users is 32.6. 12 Positive Reviews ÷ 32.6 = 0.368

  • 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.
