Parklands Care Home
from Fiona M (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 November 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

Overall Experience

The charge nurse and social worker were pleasant. They had taken the time to discuss Mum and if she was settling into Parklands. We discussed her safety, falls, medication, mood, sleep, personal hygiene and nutrition. This was a positive meeting. I feel listened to and they signposted what to do if

I had questions in future. Their manner and support to me was kind and compassionate.

Reply from Diane Stone, Manager at Parklands Care HomeDear Fiona
Thank you so much for such a wonderful review, such kind and thoughtful words. It means so much to our team when they receive this level of praise. They work tirelessly throughout the year to deliver kind and compassionate care to residents. We appreciate your support and continue to strive to deliver the highest standards of care. Thank you again,
Kindest regards Diane

from S P (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 November 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My mother has been in Parklands for 4 months now and has settled in very well thanks to the kindness of the staff.
I visit her at least once a week, often on different days and at different times, so I meet various carers and nurses, all of whom are friendly and caring.
Whilst Mum doesn't like to

leave her room, we did recently enjoy listening to a wonderful choir which Mum thoroughly enjoyed.
Mum moved from England and both Diane and Edna made the process easy for me and Mum. At a particularly stressful time, they were kind and helpful and I will always be so grateful for that.

Reply from Cameron King, Parklands Care Home at Parklands Care HomeThank you for taking the time to share such thoughtful feedback. We're so pleased your mum has settled in well at Parklands, and it's wonderful to hear how much she enjoyed the choir! Diane, Edna, and the whole team will be touched by your kind words - they work hard to make transitions smooth and ensure every resident feels at home.

Overall Experience

My aunt became a resident at Parklands Care Home, Alloa, at the start of 2025. From our first enquiry with Diane and Edna, the experience was seamless. They listened to our concerns and wishes for our aunt. Our aunt struggled with sleeping in a single bed, this led to a disturbed night's sleep, this

started to impact on her quality of life. The staff tried everything, changed beds, took the wooden sides off, but still no sleep. Diane took the situation to her MDT and discussed a bariatric bed, after a risk assessment it was all go. Bed arrived, maintenance spend the day building the new bed. It looks amazing, but most of all our aunt now has a comfortable night's sleep. Quality of life improved so much.

Reply from Diane Stone, Manager at Parklands Care HomeThank you so much for your review and such kind words. It was our absolute pleasure to provide your aunt with her new bed which she is loving and so much more comfortable and no more sleepless nights. Again thank you for your lovely review we are all truly grateful.

Overall Experience

My sister was a resident in Parklands for 16 months before she passed away. During this time, my sister was treated with respect and dignity. Staff made every effort to ensure her needs were met. Nothing was too much trouble. The facilities were of a high standard, excellent meals and cleanliness kept

to a high standard. If any issue arose, it was rectified immediately. I have peace of mind that my sister's last remaining months were a happy time for her.

Reply from Diane Stone, Manager at Parklands Care HomeDear Linda, We would all like to take a moment to thank you for leaving such a wonderful review of our home. We are so pleased to hear you were very happy with the care and kindness showed by the team your sister received at Parklands care home and ensure your kind words are shared with the team. Thank you again for taking the time to leave such a positive review of our home at this very difficult time and please accept our sincere condolences to you and your family

Overall Experience

Sadly my mother passed away in Parklands this month and the care given to her and my family at the end was overwhelming. We were called in the early hours of the morning to attend as soon as possible, and unfortunately we arrived minutes after mum passing. The nurse in attendance was so warm, welcoming

and understanding at such a difficult time. While myself and my wife were in shock she spoke to my mother with such care and dignity, wishing her peace going forward. She truly melted our hearts and spoke to us with such compassion and professionalism we were truly thankful that she was with mum at the end. To have a nurse with such high qualities, being warm-hearted, tender and affectionate at such an emotional time, we were truly blessed.

Reply from Cameron, Parklands Care Home at Parklands Care HomeThank you so much for sharing such a moving and personal reflection. We are truly sorry for your loss, and it means a great deal to hear that your mother's final moments were met with such compassion, dignity and care. Supporting families through such an emotional time is a profound responsibility, and your kind words about our nurse's warmth and tenderness will be shared with immense pride. We are honoured to have been there with your mum at the end and deeply grateful for the trust you placed in us during such a significant moment. Our thoughts remain with you and your family.

from J S (Sister of Resident) published on 14 May 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

After visiting several care homes in the Alloa's Hillfoots area we decided on Parklands . It appeared more up to date decor and furnishing wise. On visiting we were greeted with a warm welcome friendly smile given a guided tour of the home and the different areas where the residents can relax and

enjoy many activities that are organised within the home. As this was for an older sister who was no longer able to look after herself at home anymore we wanted to have it as homely as possible.Nothing was a problem the questions we asked were answered with no hesitation. Just the fact that she is having 3 /4 meals a day is a relief.Also she has assistance to shower and get dressed in the mornings.
.In Parklands we don't have that worry she is always very well presented.I can't thank the staff enough for the care and attention they give her just at Christmas time she was really poorly breathing wasn't easy but they kept us uptodate with every visit from the doctor when needed .

Reply from Cameron, Parklands Care Home at Parklands Care HomeThank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. We're truly delighted to hear that you felt welcomed and reassured from your very first visit to Parklands. Creating a homely, supportive, and respectful environment is at the heart of everything we do - and it's lovely to know this came through as you looked for the right place for your sister. It means a great deal to us that you feel confident in the care and attention she receives, especially during those more difficult moments like over Christmas. Knowing she's safe, comfortable, and well supported is what matters most, and we're so glad that our team has helped bring you that peace of mind. Thank you again for your kind words - we'll make sure your feedback is shared with the whole team here at Parklands. It will mean the world to them.

My Aunt stayed at Parklands Care Home over 6 months and was looked after and cared for very well. The staff and especially the nurses were attentive to all her needs. Her room and sleeping area were kept immaculately clean and the care home was well-presented and didn't smell like you expect in a typical

care home.

from Nadine K (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 27 August 2024 Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

Our gran has been a resident in Parklands for over a year now and we couldn't be happier or more satisfied with the care she receives.
It was an overwhelming process when we were selecting a care home for her but from the hospital visit from the manager through to the welcome she received it instantly

put our minds at rest.
During the reviews I always had faith in the information I was given as it was specific to Gran's interests and character, I genuinely believe they have taken the time to get to know her and encourage her hobbies and need for a blether.
I find it encouraging that the manager remembered our names after only meeting with him once, and another particular staff member is so helpful and another has such kindness for the residents, our gran loves her! The nursing team are fantastic, they remain on top of Gran's medical conditions and act promptly when needed - all with a smile!
Thank you to Parklands for helping us make sure Gran has the quality of life she deserves, we would be lost without you!

Reply from Richard Catahan, Manager at Parklands Care HomeThank you so much for taking the time to review our service. Your kind words are very much appreciated by every member of the team here at Parklands. We all regard caring for your gran as both an honour and a pleasure. She brightens up each and every day with her gorgeous smile and wonderful personality. If there is anything at all that she ever needs or wants, please do not hesitate to let us know.

A safe and comfortable environment. Staff very attentive and caring to my mother who has been resident since mid-March 2024. This is my first experience of having a relative in care, so I have nothing to compare it against, however I am very happy with the attitude and care shown by Management and Staff,

not only to my mother but also myself, my brother and sons when we visit.

I’m sorry to report this but my mother's room was absolutely stinking of urine again this was the worst it has ever been I’m glad I took in air freshener as I literally couldn't breathe it was that bad.
Her leg looks as though it was badly swollen again. The manager is very good at his job trying to

mingle with the residents I do hope he is staying. The only other thing is I don’t know who my mum's care worker is they keep changing but I never get told who she has.

Reply from Richard Catahan, Manager at Parklands Care HomeThank you for bringing your concerns to our attention. This is not what we are known for at Parklands and I have already met with our staff to find out what went wrong and to reinforce our company standards and expectations. In the meantime, should you have any concerns at all, please pop in and see me straight away and I will be more than happy to help you. In respect of the changes to your mum's key worker(s), I apologise for the lack of communication and can advise you that she now has both a key worker and a named nurse. We will make sure that you are kept informed of any changes moving forward and, as you know, you can always pop in for a chat with me if there is anything that you are unsure of.

I had to find a care home for an elderly friend requiring full nursing care, and I'm so glad I picked Parklands. My 91-year-old friend was very frail and stayed in the home for two months until he died. He received wonderful care during that time, and I cannot compliment the staff enough for looking

after him in the last days of his life.

Reply from Cameron, Care Home Representative at Parklands Care HomePlease accept our heartfelt condolences for the loss of your dear friend. We are deeply touched by your kind words and grateful for the trust
placed in us to care for him in his final days. It was our privilege to provide him with comfort and compassionate care. Thank you for sharing your heartfelt experience with Parklands. Our team is committed to offering compassionate and respectful care to all our residents, and it's truly rewarding to hear that this was reflected in both your and your friend's experience.

Overall Experience

My father-in-law has resided here since mid-July 2023. From the 1st point of contact with the manager to the domestic assistants who ensure his clothes are laundered. I cannot fault the commitment towards ensuring he has the best quality of life. The communication between us and all staff is open and

constant. They work closely with the whole team around him to ensure his well-being in all aspects of his life. He’s struggled to engage and they are resilient in their attempts to support his transition to group living. We have regular communication and the extensive activity planner is second to none. If we have any queries or worries the open door policy of the manager and staff team is available at any time. As someone who works in the care sector, I have to say this is a cut about the norm.

Reply from Parklands Care, Manager at Parklands Care HomeThank you for your kind words. It is a pleasure to care for your father-in-law and we all look forward to seeing him and talking with him every day.

Overall Experience

I visited my mother-in-law who told me how lonely and bored she feels. Although she suffers from dementia the quality of her life would be much improved by exercise and mental stimulation. She needs to be persuaded to eat with others and to join in all the available activities. The hem on her trousers

was ripped- this was a lady who was always smart and immaculately dressed with beautifully manicured nails. They are now often long and dirty. She deserves better.

Reply from Parklands Care, Manager at Parklands Care HomeThank you for your comments. I understand your concerns and can promise you that we will do everything that we can to maximise the wellbeing and quality of life of your mother-in-law. I would like to reassure you that your mother-in-law joins in with all group activities including the regular exercise classes. She particularly enjoys all forms of musical activity and entertainment. Many of our residents who are living with dementia will often not remember activities, interactions and events, particularly those that are the most recent. This can often lead to feelings of loneliness and boredom and is why we emphasise the importance of every moment of each interaction. Please get in touch with our activities coordinator who has numerous photographs of your mother-in-law enjoying a range of activities, which we will be more than happy to share with you.

During my uncle's stay, we found the Care Home to be amazing in more ways than one. Right from the moment he was taken there till the day he passed away on 3rd July 2023.

After viewing numerous care homes we decided Parklands Care Home in Alloa was the one for our brother.
During his stay, he was well cared for and enjoyed the friendly banter with the staff.
The home is well designed allowing residents to move around the corridors with ease. The staff encourage the

residents to participate in the activities available each day.
The sunflower lounge/cafe is a lovely peaceful room where residents can take their visitors and enjoy tea, coffee and delicious home baking.
Every member of staff went above and beyond to make sure his needs were met to the highest standard as they were to his family on their daily visits.
We would have no hesitation recommending Parklands to anyone looking for a lovely home for their loved ones.

Overall Experience

We chose Parklands Care Home after viewing a number of homes and the warm feeling from when we visited from the staff was very positive.
The care home is modern with good facilities. Each bedroom is spacious and fitted out with nice furniture with plenty of storage and a private en-suite with a shower.
The

home is spotless and is run like a 5* hotel and my elderly uncle couldn't have asked for more.
There was regular entertainment and a monthly activity planner in place with staff genuinely getting involved in fun days.
My uncle enjoyed all the meals with the menu changing daily and various choices available and no excuse needed to eat cake daily, even for breakfast if he chose to!
The staff are absolutely brilliant, and very evident that they loved their job. My uncle was safe and very well cared for with dignity and genuine warmth and kindness. In addition, the support they showed our family was just amazing.
Highly recommend and will miss my wee visits to Parklands.
