Review from J F (Son of Resident) published on 1 August 2016 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
Parkgate has looked after my mother for almost eighteen months, and during that time, I have had no cause for complaint, quite the opposite.
My mother has been warmly cared for by sympathetic staff who seem to take the well-being of their changes sensitively.
My mother has been warmly cared for by sympathetic staff who seem to take the well-being of their changes sensitively.
I will always have a kind word for the unit and its staff, because my mother seems happy and settled, and of course that is the only thing that matters.

My sister has been in this home for two years. Care is good but patchy due to large turnover off staff.

Review from Geri B (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 October 2015 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
My mum stayed at Broadacres at Parkgate, it is a lovely home, not enough staff sometimes but the staff that are there do their best of what they have got. They don't get enough rewards for all their hard work and they don't get paid enough, either they should get both. I will continue to visit the home as the residents are great too and they became good friends of my mum. The home is in a nice area and my mum didn't like it at first but she came to love it as her own home.

- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.

- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
