Review from Steven B (Son of Resident) published on 16 August 2024 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
A great care home that I would recommend to anyone. My mum was there from October 2019 until she passed away in June 2024. The care she received was second to none from start to end. Staff are very caring and have such a positive attitude, not just to the residents but to everyone who visits the home. Residents are treated with dignity and safety measures are implemented to suit every situation.
When my mum began to deteriorate rapidly and needed more support, this was discussed with us so we were fully involved in all decisions. The end-of-life care she received was excellent, as was the support we were given during the very hard final visits.

Overall, Abington Park View is like a home from home for those staying there and the staff are dedicated to making life interesting and keeping residents as active as possible through lots of activities, i.e. visits from a local nursery, religious services, seasonal crafts, and quizzes.

Reply from Sarah Copeman, Manager at Abington Park View Care Home

Overall Experience

Would Abington Park View Care Home be the new home for my wife? No worries! Management and staff are a great team. A caring and homely group with a 'can do' attitude toward keeping residents safe, comfortable and content, with dignity. It's first names for staff and residents alike, rooms are kept clean and bright. All are ensuite with safety in mind, windows only open ajar to minimise risks. Special safety mats are fitted to emit a signal to night staff to warn that the resident is treading on the mat during the dark hours. There we have it, a well run care home by a dedicated team for the benefit of residents in a safe, secure and homely atmosphere, namely the Abington Park View Care Home.

Review from Susan L (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 December 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

I never thought of the day that Mum would go into a care home, as our mum was always looking after us, right to the day she couldn't. Mum went into two respites, and they definitely don't stand up to Abington Park View. The care that is received is all we can ask for. She has a lovely room, which is always clean, and the food is all made fresh, which I am sure when Mum could eat, she enjoyed it, especially the cake. The care that I have witnessed has always been kind and respectful, and I have never heard a carer's voice raised to any of the residents. Overall, I am truly grateful for all that they do for our mum.

Review from Paula C (Grandson of Resident) published on 16 November 2023 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident at Abington Park View for over three years. The levels of cleanliness and hygiene are high and well maintained, the manager and her colleague are friendly and approachable and always happy to help with any concerns the family may have. The interaction between the carers and residents is warm and caring. My mother's needs are complex, as a family we are confident that the manager and her team meet Mum's needs, comfort and safety with kindness, patience and dignity. It is reassuring to know my mother is in such good hands.

My mother has been with Abington Park View Care Home for over three years. Her needs are higher than most of the residents there but the wonderful team, from the care home manager to the carers and the cook, have been exceptional in caring for my mum.

We, as a family, are truly grateful she is in safe hands that have her best interests at heart. Thank you.

Review from Emily W (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 5 June 2023 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

I could not praise the staff enough, for the love, care and passion they have for all of their residents. The warmth and comfort I personally received will never go forgotten. Always clean and the residents always happy. The care that everyone gave to my grandad was excellent. Unfortunately, we lost grandad in April but the staff on shift that day took so much care of us as a family. I visited yesterday to say hello to staff and residents and was welcomed with open arms, activities and games being led by staff and the interaction with all residents was great. Each resident is well known and small things to help them feel more at home are thought of and put in place. Thank you to those special people who loved my grandad with us.

Reply from Sarah Copeman, Manager at Abington Park View Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to review us, at this most difficult of times for you. As you know, your grandad was an amazing man and was a pleasure to provide support and care to. He touched all of our hearts and will forever remain in our thoughts. You and your family are always most welcome to pop in when in the area. We send best wishes to you all.

The home is welcoming at all times and keeps in regular contact during which it is apparent the staff know and care about the residents. Staff are retained with a low turnover. Any requests are quickly actioned. The residents look well and are clean and tidy. The meals especially the afternoon tea style of the evening meal are attractive and appetising.

From the manageress, and carers to the cook - all very friendly with nothing too much trouble, regular updates either by email or phone. The home is very clean and well-maintained.

Abington Park View is a caring establishment where staff understand and support the individual needs of residents. The well-being of residents is their number one priority. Residents are treated with dignity and respect. The care home is always clean and there is a programme of improvements always geared towards improving the quality of life of residents. The way in which the home has cared for residents during the Covid-19 pandemic is exemplary. I have nothing but admiration for the work of the carers. Abington Park View is a true 'home'.

Review from Marylyn W (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 30 December 2019 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My husband and I are extremely happy with my late mother-in-law’s care at this home. The staff were extremely caring and kind and did everything possible to make sure her needs and wishes were met. The home is extremely clean and she had a really lovely room with a great outlook over to the park. We cannot praise the staff highly enough with the standard of care she received, following the upheaval of moving to Northampton from Essex, where she had lived for many years. We would not hesitate to recommend the home to anyone who needed a residential home for a relative.

I really cannot sing the praises of this care home highly enough. My dad was sometimes a "difficult" resident but the care and consideration he received were truly wonderful. The staff and management are fantastic people, the home is always clean and fresh, the food is great etc.
If I could live there I would!

I have absolutely nothing but love and admiration for everyone at Abington Park View.

Overall Experience
We are extremely pleased with the care. All staff are very professional and caring and we are led by a care manager who goes above and beyond her duties to residents families and her staff. The owners too are very caring and friendly.
The home gives an ambience of one big happy family. When some residents become upset due to their condition, staff have had good training in overcoming the problem and settle residents in a loving calm manner.
They have wonderful activities eg making Easter bonnets, Christmas parties, celebrating festivals such as Chinese New Year, trips to the garden centre and outings to the local park have also been organised.

Families are also updated on what goes on in the home with meetings throughout the year.

Sarah Jane CopemanJob Title Care Home ManagerJoined 2019

My name is Sarahjane and I am the Manager here at Abington Park View. I have a passion for delivering truly, quality driven care and a particular passion for dementia care, believing that every individual with a dementia, can live a fulfilling life .I have a vast amount of experience of consistently delivering high standards of care over the past 20 years. I have shaped and managed APV for the past 3 and a half years (with a gap of 3 months). My main responsibilities are to oversee the safe and effective management of the Home, ensuring standards are maintained and exceeded. We have developed a team with exceptional values and commitment to delivering safe, quality care support. I am very proud of what we have achieved so far and what we can still achieve, striving for continuous improvement, led by our residents. This is a bespoke Home providing a bespoke, truly personalised service. All departments work hard as a team to create and understand the needs of our residents. Our Home and the decisions taken within it are led by our residents, from where a picture is to be hung, to the colour of their bedrooms, to what the menu consists of. Everyday, we strive to ensure APV is a place where our residents experience Joy and Happiness and a place where we strive to continuously, enhance, lives. We are told often what a lovely ‘feel’ the Home has and how consistent the staff team is, mostly, the team have been together for a number of years, which says much about the APV ‘family’ particularly in the current climate.
