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.

My sister had to go to Park View last November, she is now a permanent resident there. They have been really nice to her as she has Dementia and learning problems. She is happy there and seems settled. All the staff are really nice and kind, I'm glad I picked Park View for her.

Mum has been here since April 2024. At first, she was very unsettled and upset but the staff have been excellent in everything they do for her. At first, when she came in every time we went to see her she wanted to come home, now when we take her to appointments all she wants to do is come back, she
loves it. The activities are second to none, this week she has been dancing and there have been therapy ponies in as well. We as a family are made to feel very welcome and nothing is too much trouble. Thank you.

Since placing our auntie here we have seen a huge change in her. Her memory is much better. The home is like a hotel. There are always activities on, theme days. There's an onsite cafe and hairdresser. The staff are so welcoming and accommodating. In my line of work, I attend a lot of care homes and
I must say this home blows the rest out of the water. Couldn't recommend them more. Thank you for welcoming us all.

An amazing place.
After leaving hospital my aunt was brought here and the difference in her health and well-being is off the scale.
She is encouraged to mix and socialise and her mobility is better than it has been for a few years.
Fantastic staff. Always ready to help or share advice.

Our aunt only arrived here last month but wow! Such a huge difference in her, she is smiling more, clean and engaged with us and the staff. Her appetite is better and she is on the whole living a much better life than in her previous care home. She spends time in the lounge talking to other residents
and staff. The staff have been awesome, so patient and caring. They really spend as much time as possible interacting with residents and it's lovely to see!

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Overall I am very satisfied with the care provided. The carers are all very kind to my friends who speak highly of them. I do sometimes question if enough consideration is given to the fact that she is virtually blind with very little vision. Does anyone ask if she wants the radio or TV on? She can't
see or reach her clothes in the wardrobe but the untidy state I find it in when I visit seems to indicate she has been in the robe. This could be due to impatience and a want of independence on her part. As she gets increasingly confused and can't rely on what she tells me. I think the home does a very good job in difficult circumstances.

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

Thank you for your kind words about our team at Park View. The team are excellent at supporting our residents to be as independent as they can be, which is important to so many of them, in particular, your wonderful friend - she even has her own voice-activated device so that she can turn on her TV and radio independently. And of course, we are always here for her with round-the-clock care and support, as we are for all of our residents.

On first entering the home while looking for permanent residence for my elderly mum. My daughter and I were extremely surprised at how homely and looked after the care home and its surroundings were. My mum has been a resident for 5 months and the care and attention she receives are outstanding. Nothing
is too much trouble and she is treated with dignity. Entertainment and outings on a daily basis which keeps the residents occupied. Any queries are dealt with immediately. I would definitely recommend Park View for elderly care.

In general, we are happy with the care that Mum is receiving at Park Views. However, there have been two separate occasions when we visited and found Mum still in bed at 11:20 am and 11:30 am respectively. For an old lady of 91 years, we didn't think it was acceptable that she would have had no breakfast,
no medication and no shower or toilet facility since the previous evening. On both occasions, we discussed the situation with the staff.

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

Thank you for your review. We can assure you that our staff would have checked every single hour to ensure your mother’s well-being, but occasionally, a resident may simply need a lie-in if perhaps they have not had a good night’s sleep or have not been feeling themselves. I’m sorry you did not feel assured at the time - if you have any further concerns, please do speak to the home manager directly.

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.
