Parkview care home, located in the busy shopping area of Bexleyheath in the London area, provides a wealth of support services for people living with dementia, with the aim of not just providing care and comfort, but also a new, positive and more engaging stage in their lives. The team of qualified and attentive staff provide 24-hour specialist person-centred dementia care.

Additional to the home is a 20 place day centre where social activities and community contact are of paramount importance.

At the heart of Parkview is its Philosophy of Care, The Eden alternative, where social interaction and engagement are encouraged and boredom is eradicated by addressing the three plagues of loneliness, helplessness and boredom within the home.

My Father has been a resident at this home over the past 10months. During this time has has flourished and very well looked after. He has loved every minute and is always complimenting the staff when we visit. There has been time when he has fallen in some way and the staff have reacted well and kept
us informed as required. This has also been the case when he has been admitted into hospital where they kept in touch and asked after his welfare. This is an outstanding care home with outstanding staff and I would have no hesitation in recommending this to anyone. 5* service always.

This care-home is amazing, plenty of activities for all the residents to enjoy if they wish to do so. The staff are respectful and appear kind to the residents. It is clean and tidy, good food and has a great garden area where residents can enjoy and take in the view. It seems a happy environment too.
Our lovely friend has been in this care-home for several weeks and is really enjoying her time there.

It was such a relief to have my vulnerable, elderly sister accepted by Parkview Care Home. Her dementia progression had made it impossible for her to continue living alone in her flat, even with four visits a day from carers. From the day she arrived she has been well looked after.
The greatest
asset of any organisation is the staff. True indeed, for Parkview Care Home. Friendly, accommodating, nothing is too trouble. My sister loved the entertainment, missing for so long in her solitary life. Mixing and socialising with others was a real treat. The one to one attention and support was a blessing. Her room was immaculate and having her own walk in shower was the cherry on the cake; no more climbing awkwardly (and falling) into the bath!
Parkview Care Home Bexleyheath. Highly commended!

Parkview is the most wonderful place, we could not be happier with the care and support you have provided Mum.
We have had a difficult few years with Mum still loving alone but since she arrived at Parkview in November I can honestly say, it is like a weight of worry has been lifted. We know she is
safe, cared for and happy.
All of the staff have endless patience and nothing is too much trouble. The staff have taken time to get to know my Mum as a person and her interests, and this is reflected in how well she has settled in.
We cannot thank all the staff enough for their continued care.

Reply from Margaret Atiror, Home Manager Parkview at Parkview

Thank you so much for sparing the time from your busy schedules to give us such a positive review, it means a lot to the team. Thank you to you and the rest of the family for giving us the opportunity to support your Mum and entrusting her in our care, it is an absolute pleasure to have Mum with us and the team too appreciate the transformation that has occurred since Mum has been with us and it is a joy to see. Thank you for your support too it has enabled us to support Mum better.

I moved my mother to this home after her being in others and visiting and viewing 4 others, in this home there is something extra special that the others don't bring to the table. I am so very pleased that she has been accepted and is fitting in with lots of effort the staff provide.

Reply from Margaret Atiror, Home Manager Parkview at Parkview

Thank you so much for such a touching review and thank you for giving us the opportunity to support Mum, she has settled well and seems really happy. Thank you for your support in settling her.

Still breaks my heart to see my beautiful wife end her days like this, but content with the knowledge that she is in the best place. The home is so well run, always clean, warm and comfortable, and the staff are exceptional, doing a very difficult job with patience, caring, and understanding. As much
as I love my wife, I'm not sure I could give her what she gets from the caring staff at Parkview. Can't see their wings, but angels, every one of them. Keep up the good work.

Reply from Margaret Atiror, Home Manager Parkview at Parkview

Thank you very much for such a touching review and appreciation of the staff Team at Parkview, who take it in their stride with a smile to do the best they can for your wife and all the rest of the residents in their care. Your feedback is much appreciated and goes a long way. Thank you, too, for the daily support that you provide us in supporting your wife; it means a lot to us. We will endeavour to continue to do our best for her. Kind Regards

My father was in Park View for respite care and was very happy in the home, always smiling and well looked after. The staff are always about to ensure the care and safety of the residents and ensuring they are entertained regularly, either by group exercise, or external people coming in to entertain
and stimulate the residents.
Guests are always made welcome and encouraged to join in with activities. This was so important for my mother who after over 60 years of being married found it hard to see my father going into a care home even for respite. Bringing them together in a happy and fun environment made it so much easier for her to cope with the separation.

Reply from Margaret Atiror, Home Manager Parkview at Parkview

Thank you very much for taking the time to give us a review, we value your feedback to enable us to improve on what we are doing well and what we need to improve on. The team enjoy and take pride in keeping residents engaged and happy, it was also lovely to see how Dad quickly built good relationships and rapport with other gentlemen at the home, they always seemed happy interacting, sharing stories and experiences and enjoying each other's company. Dad and the rest of the family are always welcome, even to drop by.

My mother has been a resident here for 5 1/2 years. She was always treated with respect and dignity. The carers and management show such care and consideration to the residents. They make the activities fun and encourage everyone to join in. Sometimes Mum would just be happy to watch she was never forced
to do anything she didn't want to do. Mum passed away there in July this year. We were both looked after so well I cannot fault the staff. They made mums last year's happy one for all of us.

Reply from Margaret Atiror, Home Manager Parkview at Parkview

Thank you so much for such a touching review of the staff team and the service, Mum was a joy to care for and will be missed by all. Thank you for your support in looking after Mum, please be no stranger. We would also like to express our most sincere gratitude for the lovely ice cream treat from the ice cream van that was thoroughly enjoyed by all staff and residents. Thank you.

My father has been in Park View for just over a year and we are very happy with his care. He is looked after very well and we are always informed of any problems that arise. The home is always very clean and the activities team arrange many activities to keep the residents active i.e. Singing, dancing,
and art and crafts to name a few.

Reply from Margaret Atiror, Home Manager Parkview at Parkview

Hello, thank you so much for your lovely review, it means a lot to the team. Your dad is great to support, it is always lovely to see him join in the signing with his professional musical voice and thank you too for always bringing Mum along to join in with some of the activities. This clearly continues to enrich both their lives and it is a delight to see. Thank you.

I'm a regular visitor to Parkview and it is such a welcoming, happy care home where the staff really care about the residents and go the extra mile to keep them occupied with many varied activities on offer which all are encouraged to join in. The interaction between staff and residents is wonderful
to witness, resulting in a very happy and caring atmosphere where residents can feel they belong, that this is their home.

Thank you so much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to provide such an encouraging review for the team at Parkview, this is highly appreciated. Thank you for such a priceless contribution your regular church services provide to the residents and staff at Parkview towards their spiritual well-being. You enable them to continue to practice their religious beliefs in the comfort of their own home/workplace, which is essential to their holistic well-being. The services are always interactive and thoroughly enjoyed by all, we can't thank you enough!

It was my aunt's 100th birthday today and the reopening. The staff spoilt her and were so accommodating. It is in my eyes one of the best homes around, the staff all seem caring. We would like especially to thank one member of staff in particular for all she has done.

My mum-in-law went into Parkview May 22. We live in Spain and were a bit upset at the time but family in the UK arranged and did their best for her. She has dementia and couldn't stay in her home. She took time to settle but with the care of the staff it is now not a home it's her home.
It's great
for us to be able to look at the social media page and see what she is doing each day. It helps us feel connected. The staff were fab when sadly they had the fire. You only have to look at the videos of them welcoming back the residents to see what a great place it is. It says more than words ever could.

Reply from Margaret Atiror, Home Manager Parkview at Parkview

Thank you for having taken the time to give us such touching feedback. Your mother-in-law is a delight to look after as she always has a ready smile, likes to interact with staff and joins in with activities. The Activities team and the Team at large do a great job of ensuring that your loved one is engaged in activities she loves and chooses to engage in. The team recognise that relatives living abroad or far from Parkview benefit from catching up with what their loved ones are engaged in through our social media page. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and will be shared with the team. Thank you.

My initial phone call made me feel cared for.
I was invited for a show round with my husband which confirmed Parkview was the right place. All staff warmly welcomed us, a meeting with the manager and deputy was very positive.
On the day of arrival for the stay we were shown to the room and provided
with a welcome tray of tea/coffee/biscuits. I understand my husband was happy for the week and participated in activities. Thank you.

Reply from Margaret Atiror, Home Manager Parkview at Parkview

Thank you so much for such heartwarming feedback. It is great to hear that your first impressions of feeling cared for were born out when your husband spent the week with us. We are also happy to hear that you were able to have peace of mind that he was in the right place and that he enjoyed his stay with us. I must say he settled in very well very quickly and was clearly feeling at home. Your feedback will be cascaded to the team. Thank you. Please be no stranger!

I have found excellent care for my husband. He has various issues and has been treated with dignity. With all care homes staffing can be a problem but Parkview staff are a high calibre and try hard to make sure all people treated well. If any issues arise, rarely, they are dealt with effectively.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.816)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.816) out of 10 for Parkview is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 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 4.816 for Parkview is calculated as follows: ( (174 Excellents x 5) + (37 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 212 Ratings = 4.816

  • 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 Parkview is based on 18 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 69 registered maximum number of service users is 13.8, which has been reached with 18 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.
