  • Park View Residential Care Home, Sheffield
Park View is a home which has some wonderful spaces for residents to enjoy – from a beautiful light and airy atrium, a café, as well as spacious bedrooms, with ensuite wet rooms.

It's a special home, so much so that it's been shortlisted as a finalist in the Caring UK Awards 2023, for the North Care Home of the Year category.

The team provide residential, dementia and respite care, which can be booked in advance. They are passionate about Sanctuary Care’s enriching lives framework, based on the six senses people need to feel truly happy and fulfilled – a sense of achievement, belonging, continuity, purpose, security and significance.

For example, many of the residents love gardening, so the home has its own vegetable plot, where they love to grow their own produce. Some residents love to cook, so the chef devotes time to running regular cookery and baking sessions.

At residents’ meetings, they discuss activities they would like to do. For example, this summer they talked about a seaside trip, so the team organised a day at Cleethorpes Beach, a destination chosen by the residents. More animal visits were wanted, so they recently welcomed Shetland ponies along.   

Other activities the residents enjoy doing include gentle exercise sessions, live music, trips out into the community and pampering in the hairdressing salon.

The team regularly take residents to the ‘Motion Games’, where they join other care home residents for mini-Olympic games. They love it so much, the team have recreated many of these activities back at the home, like bean bag throwing, parachute games and badminton.   

Many of the residents love spending time with children, so the team involve their families in the home. Staff brought their children in fancy dress for a Disney themed party recently, where they sang and danced with the residents.

There is also a private Facebook page, for families and friends of the home.

Very friendly and caring. Mum is looked after very well. Mum is booked in for her respite on a monthly basis and we are happy that she is safe and well cared for on every visit. She was at Park View last July for her birthday and they made a lovely fuss and baked her a birthday cake.

Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Park View Residential Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review for Park View. We're so glad to hear that your mum feels so safe and is so well cared for during her visits. It's wonderful that she had a special birthday with us last July and we look forward to welcoming her again soon for respite care.

My Mum always seems to enjoy her respite visits, she enjoys the food and the facilities. The place is always clean and tidy. The staff are always friendly and helpful, though they could do with an extra member at weekends.

Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Park View Residential Care Home

Thank you for your review. We're so pleased your mum enjoys her respite stays and that you find our team so welcoming and the home so well-kept. Our staff ratios remain the same at weekends, although there is no receptionist on front of house so it may feel slightly different. We truly appreciate your thoughts and feedback, thank you.

Mum has been in Park View Residential Care Home four times now and seems to enjoy it. The staff are very helpful and friendly. Last year she was in for her birthday and a cake and tea party was arranged for her, which she thoroughly enjoyed. Ant problems and we are informed straight away.

The staff at Park View were so welcoming to my nan and us, as her family.
We are so grateful for the care and attention they give their residents day in and out.
My nan arrived over the Christmas period and there were so many different activities and celebrations.
We honestly cannot thank the staff
enough.

In the short time my mum has been in the home, we cannot express enough how well organised the home is, the staff are so friendly and caring, nothing is too much trouble for Mum and us getting used to the transition of her coming into the home. The food and cleanliness are excellent, all the things
they have happening - singers, pantos, etc are great! I feel confident Mum is getting the best care possible. Thank you.

Mum moved to Park View two weeks after Dad so she has only been in the home for four weeks. She appears to be settled, she is lovely and clean, and well cared for. She loves the food and her room is always immaculate. She does play up when I visit, saying she needs to look after Dad, but she has always
done that. There is a lot of transference going on.

Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Park View Residential Care Home

Thank you for your review. We're so glad to hear that your mum is settling in so well at Park View and that she is so happy with her care, food, and the cleanliness of her room. We understand that the transition can be challenging and it's not uncommon for residents to express a desire to care for loved ones, and we'll continue to support her - and of course yourself - in every way we can. Your feedback is truly appreciated, and the team will be touched to read your kind words, thank you.

My husband had several respite stays at Park View Residential Care Home and was always ready to come home so I was afraid he would be asking to come home when he became a permanent resident. However, he soon settled in and has never asked to come home. He seems to have a new family with the other residents
and staff. The staff are wonderful and always cheerful and welcoming when I visit. Park View is a lovely purpose-built home with plenty of space for residents to walk around.

Having researched and contacted care homes in my local area, including people who had relatives in Park View, I was confident that it met my wife's needs in all respects. All aspects of my wife's care here are first-rate. Personal care, meals, entertainment and the range of activities on a one-to-one
or group basis are excellent and stimulating.
The decision to place my wife in a care home was difficult and life-changing for us both. The care and support of the manager and all the staff have given me the confidence to know that it was the right decision for both of us.

Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Park View Residential Care Home

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review for Park View.

Auntie is so happy here, she is clean and tidy and eats lots more than she used to. The staff are friendly to her and us. We feel comfortable chatting to staff about aunty and asking for an update on how she is doing. The meals look great and she seems to like them. It's great and she seems to like

Since moving to this home my aunt is like a new person. She has gone from being curled up in her room alone to socialising, communicating and joining in with the home's various activities. It's so good to see some of her old character back and it's entirely down to this place!

My 85-year-old wife does not, I fear, appear to have been an ideal resident as a result of her advancing dementia. However, she is being treated with the utmost care and consideration despite her rejection of assistance on many occasions. I admire the patience of the staff in some quite trying circumstances.
Well done by all.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.712)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.712) out of 10 for Park View Residential 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 47 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 47 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 4.712 for Park View Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (416 Excellents x 5) + (132 Goods x 4) + (15 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 563 Ratings = 4.712

  • 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 Residential Care Home is based on 47 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 47 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.
