  • Barchester Hall Park Care Home, Nottingham
Hall Park is a warm and inviting residence in the suburbs of Nottingham; it is surrounded by parks and greenery and with great access to local amenities.

With 62 bedrooms divided between residential and dementia care units, professionals think carefully about the type of room each resident needs. Bedrooms are set across two floors, and each floor has two of its own living and dining rooms, meaning peace and quiet is never far away. All furnishings and decor throughout the home are of an exceptionally high standard.

Chefs prepare a daily menu on-site, offering a variety of tasty and nutritious meals. These can be taken in the restaurant-style dining room or in residents' rooms as preferred. Special diets will be catered for.

Activities staff manage a busy events schedule, planning daily activities in the home as well as regular trips beyond it. Residents and their families participate in planning these, to make sure everyone always has things to look forward to.

There are also two acres of beautiful landscaped gardens and a large patio area, perfect for outdoor socialising. Care workers understand that moving into Hall Park will be a considerable transition, but it's one they try to make feel as easy as possible. By helping you arrange your room just the way you like, or bringing you your daily newspaper, they'll do the little things that make the biggest difference.

The staff at the care home are probably the best carers in Nottingham and the staff treat the residents with respect. They know how to treat everyone and they keep everyone entertained and are lovely humans to be around.

The staff at Hall Park have been superb at looking after my mum. It’s a massive adjustment for somebody who has lived independently to move into care. Everyone at Hall Park has helped the process be as smooth as possible.
Many thanks to all of you.

Unfortunately, my mum experienced an unexplained collapse. The team's response was swift and thorough. An ambulance was called, and we were informed. The information received was very detailed and calmly delivered. On our subsequent visit, the ambulance was in attendance. Happily, my mum has already
started to recover and was well enough to be left at the care home. The staff showed genuine care and empathy towards both my mum and us as a shaken family. Thank you so much.

We would like to thank all the staff at Hall Park for the amazing Mother’s Day afternoon tea. We were taken back with the kindness and the trouble they took for the beautiful decorations of the room and tables plus the food it brought a lump to my throat, my mum was so happy and so were we.
Fantastic
work from all the staff and management. Thank you.

I haven’t seen my Grandma for nearly a year due to restrictions and today saw her for the 2nd time this year. I was delighted to see that a member of staff was now Deputy Manager, she had been an absolute credit to your care home for many years now and looking after my Grandma. It’s great to see such
great management.

In July, my mum celebrated her 100th birthday, and under these unusual circumstances, she had a fantastic day. All the staff went out of their way to make mum's day special; reception, carers, laundry and kitchen. We had the room decorated and a lovely buffet with our own hostess. My mum is so well
looked after all the time, not just on her special day.

Standards have definitely improved recently. Mum looks much brighter and mobile. She now looks well cared for resulting in a far more animated response when visiting. Very reassuring she is being stimulated and has individual attention if necessary. Thank you.

I just wanted to express my thanks for the provision of the pod. I visited Mum and Dad yesterday in the pod and found it to be a very positive experience. It was warm and bright, and the acoustics were excellent. The glass screen was so clean that I soon forgot it was there. I even managed to teach
Dad to do a high five against it. A great facility in these difficult times. Thanks again and compliments of the season to all at Hall Park.

Since the arrival of the new manager at Hall Park, the care my parents have received has improved greatly. Prior to this, the home had had a temporary manager, and I was not informed or aware of how my parents were during Covid. It was an extremely difficult time. However, once he joined the home, I
have been contacted weekly regarding my parent's health and well-being. Visits (garden) have been much easier to organise. More recently, my dad has deteriorated and the manager and his staff have been in constant contact with me to reorganise his care. I am delighted at this positive and inclusive style of management.

This is very early days for a review but I have to say that they have been great so far. Very helpful and informative. They made things as easy as possible in what was a difficult time. I will certainly post further reviews as time goes on but thanks to the management and staff we are confident that
you will look after our mum.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.681)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.681) out of 10 for Barchester Hall Park 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 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.681 for Barchester Hall Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (151 Excellents x 5) + (41 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 204 Ratings = 4.681

  • 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 Barchester Hall Park Care Home is based on 17 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 17 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.
