The difference in Mum since moving into Parkside has been great to see. She is happy, relaxed and has settled in so well, even though she never wanted to "go into a home" and had a bad experience elsewhere. It's lovely to see Mum returning to more of her old self. Although suffering from Alzheimer's
and dementia I have no concerns that she is being totally cared for and I don't have to worry about her living on her own anymore. She has care, companionship and can join in with activities or not as the mood takes her. I would recommend Parkside to anyone, the culture and environment is inspiring, very much led from the top, as he is a really positive and friendly Manager.

This care home is very food, and I would recommend it to others. Everyone is well cared for. The manager is always there to help in any way he can. At the time, this survey was completed, there wasn't anyone doing activities, but they did have a fantastic guy doing it before the Coronavirus.

From day one, Parkside staff have been amazing, caring and compassion. My step-father always said he would never go in a home and yet he has settled so well and it is all due to the staff. I would definitely recommend Parkside care home.

Mum has been in this home for two years now and is as happy as she can be. The carers understand mum and care for her as well as we could. Also, the cleaners are so kind and caring and go that extra mile.

Could not have wished for such a wonderful home. The staff are all amazing, they have given dad such a lovely home and us as family peace of mind knowing he was safe, well looked after. They have treated him with respect and dignity and kept us well informed of our dad. All we can say is thank you to
the manager and all care staff for taking such good care of my dad. Highly recommend them.

I consider Parklands a well-run home. The home is always clean. All staff seem well capable of doing their job, from cleaning staff to management.
I am kept well informed of any decisions made about Dad's care.
All staff seem to do their best to make a well-run home.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.351)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.351) out of 10 for Parkside Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.7 out of 5 from 7 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 4.679 for Parkside Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (61 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 84 Ratings = 4.679

  • 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 4.672 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Parkside Care Home is based on 7 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 = 3.7

    • 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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2. 7 Positive Reviews ÷ 7.2 = 0.972

  • 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.
