Review from Kim D (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 January 2024 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Following a stroke, my mum moved into Parklands for seven weeks. The care she received from the nursing staff was brilliant. The kitchen team produced delicious meals that had Mum putting back on much-needed weight. The carers and cleaners ensured Mum, her room and the rest of the home were spotless. I would highly recommend Parklands for short or long-term care.

Review from Betty H (Resident / Service User) published on 21 December 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
I had 3 weeks' rehab. in Parklands. All the staff were kind and thoughtful and the food excellent. The care I received helped me to a speedy recovery, even though 2 weeks had to be in self-isolation following time in hospital.
My thanks to everyone.

We rate most services according to how safe, effective, caring, responsive and well-led they are, using four levels:
- 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.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- 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.
