Review from Jackie S (Daughter of Resident) published on 1 April 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
The difference in Mum since moving into Parkside has been great to see. She is happy, relaxed and has settled in so well, even though she never wanted to "go into a home" and had a bad experience elsewhere. It's lovely to see Mum returning to more of her old self. Although suffering from Alzheimer's and dementia I have no concerns that she is being totally cared for and I don't have to worry about her living on her own anymore. She has care, companionship and can join in with activities or not as the mood takes her. I would recommend Parkside to anyone, the culture and environment is inspiring, very much led from the top, as he is a really positive and friendly Manager.

Overall Experience
This care home is very food, and I would recommend it to others. Everyone is well cared for. The manager is always there to help in any way he can. At the time, this survey was completed, there wasn't anyone doing activities, but they did have a fantastic guy doing it before the Coronavirus.

Thank you for your comments. Unfortunately, we lost our activities co-ordinator, we are currently in the process of recruiting his replacement. Staff are presently undertaking in house activities to keep our residents entertained.

Overall Experience
From day one, Parkside staff have been amazing, caring and compassion. My step-father always said he would never go in a home and yet he has settled so well and it is all due to the staff. I would definitely recommend Parkside care home.

Overall Experience
Mum has been in this home for two years now and is as happy as she can be. The carers understand mum and care for her as well as we could. Also, the cleaners are so kind and caring and go that extra mile.

Overall Experience
Could not have wished for such a wonderful home. The staff are all amazing, they have given dad such a lovely home and us as family peace of mind knowing he was safe, well looked after. They have treated him with respect and dignity and kept us well informed of our dad. All we can say is thank you to the manager and all care staff for taking such good care of my dad. Highly recommend them.

Overall Experience
I consider Parklands a well-run home. The home is always clean. All staff seem well capable of doing their job, from cleaning staff to management.
I am kept well informed of any decisions made about Dad's care.
