My sister-in-law has recently become a resident in Olive Row Care Home. She is very happy there and has stated that the care, food, and activities are very good. On visiting, I have always been satisfied that she is happy and well looked after, the staff are always pleasant and always answer any questions
asked with confidence and knowledge of my sister-in-law's needs. We are very happy with the care she receives, and she is very happy there.

My mum was recently a resident at this care home. I will start by saying some of the carers were very good with my mum . The events coordinator absolutely supper .
We had several issues with this care home regarding mums health. Nurses did not pick up when she had cellulitis which can turn to sepsis.
We had several issues with this care home regarding mums health. Nurses did not pick up when she had cellulitis which can turn to sepsis.
Water infection which is a common condition with dementia patients. She had plisters on her hands from constantly working around with her simmer frame. Which I was constantly cleaning and asking for padded plasters for to stop further infections. I also needed to bandaged my mums ankle because she was in pain. All of the above issues was picked up by family , NOT by staff . My mum's mental health has declined since being in that home.
Also we noticed that her buzzer was out of reach most nights. Food was of poor quality . the manager had a bad attitude towards family members. Would not recommend this home . Staff Not trained adequately for Dementia patients.

My mother inlaw had very advanced dementia, had to be fed and completely immobile, these beautiful angels ensured she was always
clean, hair washed. Always encouraged her to eat...although not alot, they tried, sat with her, sang to her. I can honestly say they treated her like their own family member.
Although immobile, they got her out of bed and included her in activity days.
She passed away on May 10th, but the care given there by all staff was exceptional. Im so glad she got out of hospital and managed to get into this very friendly, loving and well run home.
Cannot express how grateful us as a family are to all at Park house.
So much love and thanks to you all xx

My mam's concern is the phone that does not get answered. An admin person is needed. One is the staff is my main point of contact. Overall clean rooms, food good, etc. Admission door bell needs fixing. Nurses should be permanent as no continuity with agency staff.

This is a very nice and clean care home. All the staff seem to know and care after my mum. The room is clean but sometimes they forget to clean the bathroom properly. The food is nice but could be improved. Where I do get upset is the high costs that go with the care.
Reply from Bernadette Cromwell, Head of Marketing at Park House Care HomeThank you for your feedback. We appreciate your comments on the room and meals - we'll definitely take them into consideration for improvements. We understand your concerns about the costs and truly value your honesty.

After teething problems and change of management things have improved but I am disappointed with activities and staff turnover in this area is rapid it seems.
Current management seems much better. I feel the place could be more comfortable looking, hard floors and pleather seating makes the lounge
Current management seems much better. I feel the place could be more comfortable looking, hard floors and pleather seating makes the lounge
not feel lounge like.
Much personal stuff was sent to the home - duvet, duvet covers, pillows etc, I haven't seen this for a while.
A better arrangement for incidental costs would be good, a separate bill sent out each month?

My grandmother has always been taken care of and I've never had concerns about her well-being.
The premises are always clean and tidy and residents all seem to be tended to in a timely manner.
My grandmother appears to be content at Olive Row which gives huge peace of mind to us.

Park House has a wonderful and dedicated team of people who work in harmony to provide the very best care for residents and visitors. I cannot find the words to express my gratitude for the kindness and gentle support you have all given me this year. You all greet me and my daughter with a warm, welcoming,
reassuring smile. I know at times you are all under pressure, especially over the present Christmas and New Year period but the residents and visitors would never realise.

My partner went into Park House Care Home end of September and was there until he passed away peacefully on the 10th of December at 4.30 pm. I can only say we had excellent service from the manager the managerial staff, the nurses and cares. My partners time was pleasant relaxing and he was truly cared
for until the end. During his stay we were able to have a Birthday Party for him organised by the coordinator of entertainment for the patients and residents. The environment is non other than perfect. The cleanliness is exceptional. Everyone was friendly and obliging from the minute we stepped through the door until we left quietly and peacefully with my partner and the funeral director. Thank You Park House for looking after my partner and best friend.
