When Mum started to need that extra care in her life, we looked around several care homes and found a first-class care home in Glenvale Park. Mum was welcomed by all Glenvale Park staff, they are passionate about their job. Mum's room is beautiful/bright and decorated and designed with a homely feel
to it. Mum loves the lifestyle team and the daily activities that take place. I know Mum's new address will be just perfect for her and we as a family know she is being cared for 24/7. Thank you.

This place has helped my mum gain a new lease on life! The staff are attentive, caring and responsive to my mum's needs. She has a cosy room, great food and company all the time!

My mother went to Glenvale Park at the beginning of January. We had looked at several care homes previously and after seeing the manager we felt reassured that if my mum were to settle in any place, Glenvale would probably be the most likely in making her happy. We had expected an unhappy worryingly
few weeks however within four days Mum appeared settled and she was welcomed by everyone and not asking to return home. This has exceeded all our expectations. She is not lonely, not scared and she is safe and dare I say it very content. So thank you Glenvale.

Love coming to visit the residents and a very special lady. It's such a lovely home, always greeted with a smile from staff and residents. The rooms are beautiful and feel very homely with beautiful views from every window. Love coming to celebrate special occasions e.g. Chinese new year. Also love
seeing all the activities the residents and staff do on social media and hearing about them from the residents. The food looks delicious, always something different.

We hear horror stories about care homes but at Gelenvale Park we are assured of a professional, caring and well-managed organisation which puts our minds at ease that Mum is being well looked after in her dotage. The staff are patient and kind and always polite and helpful with residents. The in-house
medical supervisor is first rate and communication with family is good too. Well done so far to Glenvale Park.

Since having to make the choice of finding our mum a suitable care home as her health changed and so her personal needs changed. We have been very happy with all the staff at Glenvale Park. The staff are consistently cheerful, caring, highly professional and attentive and caring to a high standard for
their clients. I have been able to communicate any issues around my mum settling into a larger community than she was used to and they were dealt with to my satisfaction. All in all, the staff and care for my mum have meant, as a family, I think we know that if our relative has to be in a home - this is one of the best.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Mum is here for a few weeks of respite care, from a stay in the hospital. She had been very, very ill and had lost a lot of confidence, especially with mobility. After looking at quite a few homes, Glenvale Park really stood out from the others. Mum was welcomed with proper red carpet treatment and
some lovely flowers too. Not only did all the staff say hello and introduce themselves, but the residents did too. Everybody, staff and residents alike, are friendly. Mum hasn't wanted for anything here. She has improved enormously, both in spirit and physical health. She loves the activities and has also now joined the walks in the mornings, which is doing her good. The home is immaculate and nothing is too much trouble. The food is lovely too, with good meals and plenty of drinks and biscuits throughout the day. I cannot speak highly enough of this place. Thank you all.

My gran has settled into her new home very well. She was nervous at first, as to be expected, but the wonderful welcome and care that she has received have been outstanding. All the staff are lovely and friendly, and Gran is always talking highly of them. It's lovely to see all the activities that you
do on the website, as Gran doesn't always remember what she has done! Always feel welcome when we visit. Keep up the good work, and thanks for making our gran happy.

The residents have always something going on. The staff organise things to do every day and always make sure that the residents join in if they want to. It is like an elderly holiday camp, with so many activities. Cannot fault the care and attention the residents receive.

Really happy with the care given to my 94-year-old mum with Alzheimer's. The staff, bar none, give excellent care and nothing is too much. The activities provided are fantastic and geared to the resident's interests. The German Christmas market involved my mum as she's German and she had a great time
singing German songs. There is a lot of singing and dancing - such a happy place. Families and the wider community are also involved.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.874)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.874) out of 10 for Glenvale Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 62 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 60 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 4.874 for Glenvale Park is calculated as follows: ( (657 Excellents x 5) + (61 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 733 Ratings = 4.874

  • 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 Glenvale Park is based on 60 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 60 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.
