My friend likes living here and the company of the other residents is nice for him to have. Friendship and company can be difficult in your 80's and the people are so friendly and chatty. Best place for my friend to be at this age.

Cannot thank enough the manager and the team for their work they do for residents and their families. The manager cares so much about the place and the residents that she makes sure that she is always available. Her communication skills are amazing, she doesn't make people wait and she goes beyond and
above to resolve the issues if there are any. Her team has been supporting my husband with his needs for almost two years and I know he is in good hands and well looked after.
Thank you.

My dad was very happy at Clarence Park his keyworker and all staff members looked after him in a very caring and dignified manner. The two years he spent at Clarence Park he enjoyed - particularly the food! Often told me he had 4 meals a day! We knew he was happy, comfortable and well liked by all staff.
Couldn't have asked for a better care setting.

Today I witnessed the stressful situation the manager was put in by the NHS Channels that she has to go through to get a resident medical help.
My brother has a terminal illness.
The doctor was called around 9.30 am .After waiting for the doctor for a few hours we were told that the surgery is at
capacity!!! Advised to call 111. Which was done around 2.30 .
My brother was moved from his room so that she could keep a watchful eye , in case he went unconscious.
At around 5 ish the 111 doctor telephoned, we were asked to be present so we could also talk to the doctor. We took in turns speaking.
I explained that my brother's condition, encephalopathy was showing all the signs of him needing urgent care. This doctor appeared not to listen to my concerns let alone that of the very experienced nursing home manager. I've escalated the paramedic request.
My brother was admitted to hospital at 9pm.
The mananger and staff were amazing.
All this and caring for everyone else.

Reply from Teresa Monk, Manager at Clarence Park

Quite happy with care and support. The majority of staff and management good. Able to speak openly and get a response. Most of the food and drink is good. Sadly staff need to feed me - no problem. My room is well suited for my needs.

After two hectic weeks in the hospital with moves to different wards, the warm welcome I received as I entered your home for a period of respite care before returning to my flat, gave me such a reassuring feeling. Everyone made me feel welcome and they were ready to help, and monitor my health and all
my needs. Knowing there was 24-hour care and excellent response when using the call bell, was so important and appreciated. Well done to Clarence Park - you are much needed and thank you from a grateful guest.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.353)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.353) out of 10 for Clarence Park is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.4 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.353 for Clarence Park is calculated as follows: ( (95 Excellents x 5) + (68 Goods x 4) + (26 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 190 Ratings = 4.353

  • b) 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 Clarence Park is based on 14 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 43 registered maximum number of service users is 8.6, which has been reached with 14 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Teresa Monk

Job Title: Care Home Manager

Joined: 2010

Teresa was born in Rainham Essex and started her nursing carer at the age of 14, volunteering at Saint George’s hospital in Hornchurch. In 1986 Teresa moved to the West Country with her family and continued working in various care homes and progressing through her career. This has included working for Notaro homes in previous years. For the past twenty years, Teresa has been nursing and managing an acute medical area. This involved working closely with a wide range of multidisciplinary teams to ensure delivery of care to a high standard.
Most recently Teresa has moved her mother down to the southwest and has reviewed her working career and felt returning to Notaro homes would provide her with the opportunity to provide the high standard of care that she believes should be available to everyone. Teresa believes in working closely with residents, their families and friends and her team members to achieve a warm, friendly and homely place to live and work at Clarence Park Care Home Weston Super Mare. Teresa has a strong family grounding and enjoys spending time with her family and quality time with her seven, soon to be eight grandchildren. Teresa enjoys DIY and taking care of her dog, tortoise and fish and hates shopping so loves the internet.
