This is a congenial care home. The staff are ever ready to help and to sort out problems. The activity staff work hard to keep us interested with affairs and I enjoy the sessions. No way could I manage to be alone again at home, therefore, I am extremely grateful for Parkside Care Home.
Thank you for your review. I'm so pleased to hear that you are enjoying the different activities and if you have any problems they are sorted for you.
Activities are very good.
Seen good improvements recently.
Food could be better.
Room seems a little crowded as medication and supplies are kept in there.
Thank you for your review. We are pleased to hear about your positive experience and appreciate your comments about our home and staff.
My mother spent the final months of her life at Parkside. She was cared for with skill by the nursing staff and always with kindness and consideration by the carers and all the other staff.
She, and her family, were treated with respect and compassion at the end of her life.
the family feel fortunate that she lived at Parkside and would have no hesitation in recommending it to others who need nursing care for a loved one.
My mother was only living at Parkside Care Home just over four months. During that short time she settled well and made good relationships with several staff. When my mother died the family were cared for with great care and respect. I felt several members of staff were genuinely affected by our loss. My special personal thanks to the staff who looked after mum.
Thank you for your review, and may we take this opportunity to offer our condolences. We are pleased to hear about your positive experience and appreciate your comments about our home and will share your comments with the home’s manager. The Bupa Customer Care Team
We would like her to have some personal recognition from Bupa!
I want to say thank you for the way the whole team on Poppy Floor, led by the Deputy Manager is looking after Mum as she faces declining health. They are unfailingly kind, gentle and understanding in their dealing with her and, I believe, genuinely have her best interests at heart. The Deputy Manager in particular consistently demonstrates a high level of compassion and professionalism while caring for Mum. It seems that nothing is too much trouble. She keeps me up to date, on a daily basis if necessary, with any changes to Mum's care plan, medication and general well being. I cannot praise the care Mum is receiving highly enough.
I am quite happy living in this care home.
Mother spent nearly 2 years at Parkside and I was well pleased with the care the staff provided in her time here. In a word 'magic'.
