This is an excellent nursing/care home. The quality of the accommodation is very high as is the overall support from the staff. The staff are all extremely pleasant and always helpful, and provide a caring and friendly environment. Parklands Lodge feels more like a high standard hotel and if I required
this support for myself it would be top of my list. It is a brand new facility in a lovely position and provides everything I could want for my mother.

What a fabulous home this is! My father has recently moved here from another local care home. He is encouraged to be active, involved and engaged by the Manager and his fantastic team. Visits are a joy as Dad is happy and excited to tell me his news about how he has spent his day. The family kitchen
facility means that we can make and drink tea together just as we did when he was at home. I cant praise this service enough- After working for many years in the care home industry I am aware that we all strive to give residents purpose but in my experience, few succeed. Trust me when I say Parklands lodge does what it says on the tin - I cant praise this service enough !

Rooms are spotless and very comfortable. Lounge beautifully furnished, roomy, light. Food exceptional, freshly made, good choice of menu.Visitors can pre-order meals to have with residents. Visitors kitchen a bonus.
Sunny aspect garden, relaxing. Manager fabulous. Nothing too much trouble, always
time for chat- from a nursing profession he understands all aspects of nursing care. Staff friendly, caring, exceptional. Daily care received is excellent. Treated promptly, kindly and with respect at all times promoting independence.
All staff work really hard, very dedicated and attentive. There is no place like home but this is second best! Always feel dad is well cared for and in a safe environment. This really gives us great comfort knowing he is receiving the very best care. We have looked at many nursing homes in the past for a relative and can honestly say that this seems to be the best in Southport.
I would not hesitate to recommend Parkland Lodge to anyone. Keep up the good work! You are very much appreciated.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.413)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.413) out of 10 for Parklands Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 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 4.413 for Parklands Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (137 Excellents x 5) + (82 Goods x 4) + (21 Satisfactorys x 3) + (7 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 247 Ratings = 4.413

  • 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 Parklands Lodge is based on 20 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 70 registered maximum number of service users is 14, which has been reached with 20 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.

Job Title: Lodge Manager

Joined: 2023

From the very first moment I walked through the doors of Parklands Lodge I received a fabulous warm welcome not only from the staff team but residents alike. It became evident that everyone has a true passion, takes pride in all aspects of the care home, and truly cares about the residents and their families/loved ones.


It is imperative that all residents, their families and visitors receive a warm and friendly welcome when arriving at Parklands Lodge, this is something that I feel makes a true difference.

As a home, Parklands Lodge provides a range of services from residential care to specialised nursing and dementia care, which ensures that we can adapt to residents' ever-changing needs/requirements. We are passionate. and committed to working with you or your loved one to promote and encourage independence. We also aim to support you to live your life in colour giving you and your family peace of mind that we are here to provide support around the clock whenever you need it.

Here at Parklands Lodge, we understand how difficult it can be to move into a care home environment. The team are here to support you with the transition into your new home making it as seamless as possible. We are available to provide support, guidance and information not only to our residents here at Parklands but to their loved ones/family members throughout the journey. We are here to promote a positive, safe, and well-maintained environment where we view all of our residents and their families as an extension of our own.

Job Title: Lodge Sales Advisor

Joined: 2019

I have worked for Athena Healthcare Group for just over 5 years.


I started as a Concierge at Abbey Wood Lodge but recently joined the team of Lodge Sales Advisors based at our UK head office. I help families find the perfect forever home for their loved ones, liaising with Social Care and many local hospitals.


I enjoy my role very much, especially seeing new residents and their family becoming part of the Lodges extended family. Being a family that has a loved one with Dementia, I feel this helps me understand the pressure put on families when they suddenly have to consider the alternative to keeping their loved one at home.
