I am the sister of a resident and am happy she is happy in your nursing home. The carers seem to be happy in their workplace and this comes through in their care. The physical building is great e.g. separate room for privacy/fresh air and a lovely back garden (secure) for residents and visitors. My
sister's room has an en suite toilet and sink and is quite large with a lovely view. Overall, well done Pennine View. Thank you.

The staff are very helpful and attentive even though he can be very obstinate at times. The only problem I can comment upon is we are still waiting for his eyes looking at with a view to treatment which would give him more quality of life.

My visiting experience has been good however I have only visited around 6 times. My Auntie has always been happy with the care. My Auntie seems to be ok. However some other residents seem to have to wait a long time for help! eg going to toilet etc. Good reception rooms not seen bedrooms. Could be better
TV programmes/videos.

Without exception, laundry, maintenance, care and nursing staff, were all excellent. Could not ask for more.
Never once saw a resident treated with other than the greatest kindness and consideration, even in the most difficult circumstances.
A happy and bright environment.
The manager was extremely
helpful and answered all our queries simply and efficiently.

My sister-in-law was admitted yesterday and the welcome was incredible. Made to feel welcome immediately and all staff were brilliant. It made a very stressful situation so much easier. My relative remained calm throughout and gave us a smile when we left.
If this care continues we will have no concerns
at all.

This is my second review of the Care Home and follows the recent passing of my mother-in-law after just over two years in their care. Whilst my wife and I have always been happy with the care provided, the love and help provided over the last weeks have been exceptional with the staff going above and
beyond to ensure that her final days were peaceful and she was not left alone. We always maintained a two-way dialogue with the staff and felt able to discuss any concerns that we had as they arose and received positive responses. Would I recommend Pennine View? Absolutely.

Pennine View is a lovely home. I knew it was going to be the home for my dad as soon as I walked in. In the short time my dad has been there, all the staff are warm and welcoming. They treat my dad with kindness, consideration and compassion. There is always someone available and the manager is always
available also. They take their time to learn what my dad's likes and dislikes are and respect his wishes. The lounge/dining room is open and welcoming, always staff available, nothing is too much trouble. He is now receiving the love, care and support he deserves. Thank you all at Pennine View.

Review from M O (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 January 2024 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was admitted on 31.12.2023 in a very distressed state following an appalling experience in a previous care home (admitted there on 08.12.2023). As a family, we have all noticed that in less than two weeks, Mum has improved tremendously. The care she is being given is second to none, and medication
has been greatly reduced. Previous care homes were quite happy to keep Mum heavily sedated. All the carers at Pennie Vire treat Mum with respect, dignity and an understanding of her condition. Finally, as a family, we can rest knowing Mum is very well cared for.

Thank you very much for your review of Pennine View; we appreciate that you have taken the time and trouble to write it. We are sorry to hear of your previous experience, but are very happy to know that your Mum is now receiving care, which is 'second to none'. Kind regards.

This care home is just okay, the staff is okay, and the activities are poor. Not much going on in the home. Also, clothes and possessions seem to get lost. My wife was only in 5 weeks and she lost her watch and slippers. The room is okay and the food is also okay. Didn't see much of the management.

Pennine View should be the role model, the flagship of care homes. Absolutely cannot find fault with Pennine View. You gave my aunty the best quality of life you could for her short time in your care. I only wish we could have found you sooner!
What an amazing staff team from the manager right down

Mum needed temporary care when Dad was taken into hospital. The home came recommended and it's lived up to expectations. It's always clean, the staff are kind and go the extra mile and Mum has settled surprisingly well there, given the circumstances.
Pennine View's staff have made a heartbreaking

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Went to see my mum at Pennie View on 5th June 2023. She has dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Every time we go to visit, she's always smiling. She doesn't remember many family names, but facial recognition is good. She's so happy and has improved such a lot since she went to Pennine View. The staff
are so good and understanding and stimulate all the residents so well. It feels like a restaurant but with homely decor and nice cosy touches. Mum was 92 years old on Tuesday. The staff had organised a birthday cake and singing. So lovely. We asked the staff if they would put a scarf round her neck as she always liked to look smart. So every time we visit now, she is wearing one and looks, and probably still feels, like the lady she always was. We are so impressed and happy with Pennine View. I have even told my children that if, and when, the time comes, I would be very happy to live in Pennine View, even though it is 19 miles from where they all live.

Very impressed with the care my mother is receiving at Pennine View. Since going there in November 2022, she is more alert and happy. The home itself is clean with nice decor and lovely food. She is cared for with care and attention in a very professional manner by staff who clearly take pride in the
role that they play. I don't worry about Mum as I know she is in safe hands.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.494)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.494) out of 10 for Pennine View is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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 4.494 for Pennine View is calculated as follows: ( (113 Excellents x 5) + (47 Goods x 4) + (17 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (1 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 180 Ratings = 4.494
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Pennine View is based on 15 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 50 registered maximum number of service users is 10, which has been reached with 15 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
