I am very pleased with the care home: my sister is very happy there. Plenty of entertainment, hairdressers and plenty to do to keep her entertained. It is spotlessly clean and the staff are brilliant. We go in any time of the day, which is great for us.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My husband moved in on 30th July 2024. He got a decent size room with view of trees and park, which he loves. The staff are very professional and kind. I had very good contacts with the management. So far, the food has been satisfactory with some good days. My husband looks happy when I visit. He is
kept clean and showered.
The frustrating part is the relationship with the surgery - nobody ever knows when the doctor is in. But overall, it has been a very positive experience.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident at Park View for around 12 weeks. I found the home to be perfect in every way. All staff were always helpful, and above all, respectful at all times. Unfortunately, Mother died in Park View from her illness, but I cannot imagine her being more comfortable and cared for in any
other environment.
I really cannot thank the staff and carers enough for making a very difficult time as easy to cope with as possible.
I would highly recommend this home.

Staff have been so amazing looking after my nan. She was made so comfortable in her last few weeks and was provided amazing care.
Two members of staff in particular were so amazing in explaining and providing support for all the family. At the end they both were upset and cried which showed my family
what this job really means to them. They are valuable to this care home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My nan has only been here a short period of time but already I can see an improvement in her health. At present, she is not safe to return home. This is tough on the family as we want to care for her at home but with work and family commitments it was proving difficult.
Park View responded very quickly
to the request of assessing my nan and she was admitted to Park View the following day. All the staff at Park View have been very welcoming. The home is clean and tidy. The room is light and airy. Nan was originally in a room by the garden, the gentleman opposite her occasionally shouted out and this caused Nan to get upset. The home recognised this and moved her to a different room where it was quieter. Nan has been allowed to have her home comforts brought in. Family are allowed to take her out for the day which is very comforting for my family and my nan. At times when Nan has got upset when we are not there staff have reassured her. Nan is being well looked after.

My wife, who suffers with late-stage Dementia, was transferred from Hawkinge House to Park View Ashford, after an assessment. From the very start, the manager was very welcoming and reassuring.

My mother has been in the care home for over 4 years. All the staff have been caring and supportive of my mother's needs and giving family support. Recently, circumstances have changed with my mother's health which has deteriorated and I appreciate all the help and support given by all members of staff
from the kitchen to the general manager. I am confident that when I am not at the home, which I visit frequently, my mum is in good hands and treated like family.

Mum has been a resident at Park View since January 2024. The home is always clean and tidy with a very welcoming feel. I have nothing but praise for all the staff. Everyone is so helpful and friendly, but most importantly, the care Mum has received is outstanding. There are lots of activities to keep
residents occupied. Events like Valentine's, Afternoon Tea and Mother's Day lunch allow families to still celebrate together. I am so pleased I chose Park View, as it is lovely to have peace of mind and to see Mum happy and well cared for. I would highly recommend Park View Care Centre.

Staff are friendly and helpful, the home has regular entertainment, food is varied and of a good quality. I feel the home is really trying to improve things for the residents and their families... but let’s be clear, this is a care home not a holiday camp and as far as my father's care is concerned
he is very well cared for, all his medical needs are met and we feel he is in a very safe environment.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
My biggest regret was having my partner go here. I can't tell you how many safeguarding was raised. I lost count where I raised so many. It was a nightmare from start to finish. No one knew what the other one was doing. One incident of many I came to visit and my partners eye was swollen and closed.
I went to find a nurse which said the doctor was still in the building and she would send him to have a look. When he came I said my partner has a eye infection he looked at my partner and said which eye. I just couldn't believe it my partners eye was very swollen you couldn't miss but see it. That was just one of many incidents, a lot which they couldn't explain especially when it came to bruising. If you're thinking of sending a loved one here please do your homework. I do know if I could have my choice again this place wouldn't be on my radar.

My mum has been at Park View since October 2022. The care and attention she receives is outstanding and they look after her needs well. Unfortunately she is palliative; the receptionist and clinical lead nurse have kept me updated and informed throughout her time there, whether this is for admin or
for updates to her care plan. The carers and the cleaners are extremely hard working and nothing is too much bother for them. I couldn't ask for a better place for my mum to spend her final days.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Highly recommend anyone with loved ones to educate yourself before using any care home. Specifically the expected inspection report. In the meantime, the first tier care standards tribunal document can be located on a government website.
I would not recommend or trust with my loved ones. And at the
present time they have been legally prevented from any admissions without exceptional permission by the government agency CQC.
This review is made solely with the intent that those privately funded, are aware of the above. So they can be informed and show vigilance if required for their very vulnerable loved ones. These are all facts. I am sorry if it causes concern, but I’d rather service users / their loved ones know - I wish I had.

My nan has been a resident at Park View for over a year now. She has dementia and is on the dementia unit. I cannot thank the staff at Parkview enough for the fantastic care they give my nan. She was not coping at home, even with a full care package and family support. Since being at Park View, my nan
is so much happier. She has become much less agitated, and it feels like we have a little bit of Nan back. All the staff are amazing, they go above and beyond, not only for my nan but for us the family as well. Park View organise lots of activities and entertainment for the residents and my nan loves joining in. She also really enjoys the little trips out, especially when it involves going out for a cup of tea. The meals provided are of high quality and full of fresh vegetables, my nan loves them. My nan is very happy there and as a family we know she is getting the best of care.
Thank you to all the staff at Park View for becoming part of our family. You are all amazing.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.568)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.568) out of 10 for Park View Care Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 38 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 36 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.568 for Park View Care Centre is calculated as follows: ( (329 Excellents x 5) + (83 Goods x 4) + (9 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (22 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 444 Ratings = 4.568
  2. 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 Park View Care Centre is based on 36 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 88 registered maximum number of service users is 17.6, which has been reached with 36 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
