Staff are always so friendly and helpful. Even through covid, they have been helpful, caring and understanding. They have taken care of my mum and assisted in me being able to visit and kept informed on how she is doing.

From the moment my father was admitted, he received excellent care. He was treated with dignity and compassion. We felt the staff really wanted to look after him and us as a family. We would recommend this home to anyone in a similar position to our family.

My grandma had a very short time at Park View but the time she had was comfortable and caring. The staff were incredible, especially as they are having to cope with Covid restrictions, they were very supportive through my grandma’s end of life. A very sad time but made very comforting and dignified by the staff there. I would not hesitate to recommend this home. Thank you.

I have found it extremely difficult since March 17th when care home doors were closed to all visitors and of course this had to happen. Since then I have only been allowed to visit my husband on two occasions. My usual visit was every day, five hours at a time. But I know that he is being looked after well and the staff are very kind. My husband has dementia, he cannot make conversation and he is deaf and it's been extremely difficult having to wear the mask. It would be better if I could just wear a shield.
My mum has been in the home since July 2020. My family and I are very happy with the level of care she receives. She is content and doesn't appear to be agitated any more. It has given us peace of mind, which we are grateful for.

My mum has been here for 7 months now and she feels at home. She is always clean and tidy. Whenever I ask her if she likes it here she smiles and nods her head (my mum has dementia). I'm very happy with the home, the staff re very caring and helpful.

Our mum passed away recently after spending eight very happy years at Park View care centre. First in Cedar, then Oak and finally in Beech unit. The rooms are nicely decorated, complete with en-suite facilities. There are lounges, complete with armchairs and TV and dining rooms with table and chairs in a restaurant-style, in each of the four units. Both areas are used for entertainment, using outside artists. The activities team keep residents entertained every day of the week. We have been extremely happy with Mum's care from every point of view. The welcome we received each time we visited was always very friendly indeed. The care staff were very kind and courteous to our mum and from the cleaning staff, handyman, cooks and administration, we could not fault their dedication. We highly recommend Park View Care Centre to anyone who finds themselves looking for a care home.

My mum has been a resident at Park View since September 2019 following a brain bleed and three strokes. Mum was in hospital for four months and had a lot of complex needs when she went into the home. Mum sadly passed away on the 7th July 2020. The care that she received as a resident has been outstanding. The staff showed Mum so much compassion and kindness, which as a family we will never forget. The staff truly are a wonderful team of dedicated professionals who work tirelessly to maintain an exceptional standard of care. Our heartfelt gratitude and thanks go out to them all.
Thank you so much for your kind words and lovely review, and thank you for taking time to write this at this most difficult time, your mum was a special person and will be truly missed.

Dad came into Park View Care Centre on 4th February 2020. Sadly his ability to walk was eluding him. He had to spend much time in bed and chair. The staff were very kind and helpful. A final meal together with his family was laid on two days before he died. The smile on his face on that day I will take to my grave. Thank you!
I would like to thank the nursing staff and the carers at Park View (Beech Ward) for the care and attention they all gave my husband.

The Park View Care Centre is expertly managed and run by the kindest and most compassionate staff. My mother-in-law's welfare and day-to-day care are second to none, nothing is too much trouble for the nurses and carers. We are kept fully informed at all times of all developments, including phone calls to home now and again. The care home is spotlessly clean and tidy at all times as is the room where my mother-in-law stays. A perfectly run care home.
Thank you for taking the time to provide this review. I know that potential families and residents find these reviews useful when selecting a home.
All the staff were friendly and always had a smile on their faces. Thank you to everyone at Park View.

My father was a resident at Park View Care Centre for about 6 weeks following a hip operation. In that time I experienced his needs being met to a high standard. The care was consistently good with a kind, compassionate and helpful approach from the carers, who were always willing to do what was required and a bit extra. The nurses always found time to talk and seemed to understand my father's needs and personality. The cleaning staff were also friendly and attentive demonstrating that it was "more than just a job" to them. I found the administrative staff welcoming polite and professional. It makes such a difference to visitors when they are greeted with warmth and a smile. Thank you to the kitchen staff as well.

Over the years...
With over 22 years of experience working in social care, Karen became a valued member of the Park View family when she join in 2016.
Over the years her role has changed and every role has had different things which Karen enjoys. 'A part of my role which I like is setting families minds at rest and that they have done what is best for a relative. The guilt people feel at placing loved ones in care can be huge! When they see their relative settled and happy it brings them a great deal of peace and it makes me feel proud that our team has helped them.'
Karen is also proud to be part of team who respect and care for each other.
When she is not at work Karen enjoys reading, she also loves ABBA and dancing. Most importantly, Karen loves spending time with her grand children who keep her very busy!
