Review from Joy C (Daughter of Resident) published on 21 September 2017 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I am so relieved to have my mother somewhere safe, secure, clean and caring. I struggle to come to terms with and deal with her dementia but all the staff in Clarendon House at Parklands Court, Bloxwich are so understanding and helpful, they help me cope.
The house manager is brilliant, the staff are
all superb at dealing with Mom, plus the activities coordinator always has something going on to encourage the residents to stay active - and she's brilliant with them. They knit, sing and help in the garden.


Last week they went to Chester Zoo and had a fantastic time - Mom even remembers going and what a lovely day she had, loving all the animals and especially the monkeys! Mom also has her hair done once a week by the visiting hairstylist which gives her a lift and keeping her looking like my Mom, despite the fact that most of the time she's not really with us in 2017.


Just in September, they've had a French week, Spanish week, Italian Week and Greek week. I think a German week is on the cards (Mom is not so keen on that as she remembers the war!!) Relatives and visitors are always welcome at whatever time they choose and we can always ring up and speak to Mom or ask how she is.


I am so grateful for Parklands Court, Clarendon House and the wonderful care given to Mom. A huge thank you!!

Reply from Jayne Duck, Customer Services Administrator at Parklands Court Care Home

Thank you for your review. It is so nice to hear such kind words about our staff. I'm so glad to hear that your mom is settled, happy and that she enjoyed her day at the zoo. It must give you such peace if mind knowing that she is well cared for and safe.

Review from Kathy K (Wife of Resident) published on 1 August 2017 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
When my husband deteriorated to the point of needing a care home, I was devastated, and wanted to provide him the best, most caring place I could. I was so dismayed by many other homes, whereby some didn't even want my beloved husband as he was too active, requiring more work.
My first visit to Parklands
and I was won over by the way the staff interacted with the residents, encouraging them to make choices, providing activities and environmental triggers to bring back memories. They were and are treated like individuals, with respect for their past and future. I wasn't sure how I could afford financially to bring him here, but morally I couldn't justify not giving him this.
This place is wonderful. The meals are good, with great choice but more than that, they encourage spouses to come and share meals with their beloved, as they would at home. The staff here truly do care, and they do a brilliant job. I have peace of mind knowing my husband is actually cared for here.

It was my wife's grandmother's 100th birthday. The staff at Parklands made every effort to welcome us to the nursing home and had made such a special effort to provide food, drinks, cake and balloons for the occasion.


It is quite clear that all the staff who work here make a great team and take

great pride in their work. Most importantly, they put the residents first.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This care home is by far the best I've visited. The staff are super, friendly, jovial, they make patients and visitors relaxed.
Nothing is too much trouble for them, they are truly the best. It's a pleasure to come here. It's clean, tidy, fresh. Two people are exceptional carers, but that's not taking
anything away from the others, they are all 'great'.
Keep it up Parklands.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The manager of Samual House (unit in Parklands) came to hopsital to do a review on my hubby. I found him very caring and understandable and since moving my hubby in, my doubts and concerns were halved - even though it's the worst decision I've ever had to make.


My hubby has settled in really well

and has really enjoyed the food. In fact, he's gone up a size in jeans! The staff are really good to my hubby, and they work really hard. They are always pleasant. I know I've made the right decision now he is really comfortable.

My sister has been treated with respect, dignity and the utmost care from everyone. Food, cleanliness and attention to her needs have been paramount.

Current Review Score: 9.0 (8.982)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.0 (8.982) out of 10 for Parklands Court Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.4 out of 5 from 13 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.583 for Parklands Court Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (107 Excellents x 5) + (45 Goods x 4) + (10 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 163 Ratings = 4.583
  2. 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 4.399 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Parklands Court Care Home is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 163 registered maximum number of service users is 32.6. 13 Positive Reviews ÷ 32.6 = 0.399
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
