  • Barchester Hall Park Care Home, Nottingham
Hall Park is a warm and inviting residence in the suburbs of Nottingham; it is surrounded by parks and greenery and with great access to local amenities.

With 62 bedrooms divided between residential and dementia care units, professionals think carefully about the type of room each resident needs. Bedrooms are set across two floors, and each floor has two of its own living and dining rooms, meaning peace and quiet is never far away. All furnishings and decor throughout the home are of an exceptionally high standard.

Chefs prepare a daily menu on-site, offering a variety of tasty and nutritious meals. These can be taken in the restaurant-style dining room or in residents' rooms as preferred. Special diets will be catered for.

Activities staff manage a busy events schedule, planning daily activities in the home as well as regular trips beyond it. Residents and their families participate in planning these, to make sure everyone always has things to look forward to.

There are also two acres of beautiful landscaped gardens and a large patio area, perfect for outdoor socialising. Care workers understand that moving into Hall Park will be a considerable transition, but it's one they try to make feel as easy as possible. By helping you arrange your room just the way you like, or bringing you your daily newspaper, they'll do the little things that make the biggest difference.

My mother has been a resident since the start of 2020. All the staff we have met are friendly and professional, they are dedicated to the needs of the residents and are always happy to assist. Any concerns have been promptly communicated and resolved our satisfaction. The home is well decorated and
is a comfortable place to visit.
My mother settled in quickly and is clearly very happy with life at Hall Park.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident at Hall Park care home for two years and during this time she was given wonderful care from all the staff. She was treated with dignity and respect at all times. The home had excellent communication with all the local health providers and were able to support my mother during
times of medical need. The range of activities offered kept my mother stimulated and she was part of the home community, making many friends of both staff and residents. We felt that Mum's care was a very personalised service and communication to the family on all issues was excellent. Her room was always kept to a very high standard. Personal care was extremely good and as my mother developed more complex needs, these were met fully by the staff, including the use of specialist equipment. The food was always of a high standard, good variety and the presentation and the service of food in the dining room was excellent.

I am extremely grateful to the management and staff who care for my father, especially through these challenging times. Staff have been wonderful, keeping us informed about how my father is whilst we are unable to visit.
They send us regular video clips etc and are always happy to talk to us.
Dad
appears to be happy and settled in his environment.
The manager is always happy to help - gives you time and resolves any potential problems very calmly. The staff treat Dad kindly, with genuine care and dignity.
Thank you, Hall Park, for your commitment, kindness and care.
Stay safe and well!

During these extremely difficult Coronavirus times, I cannot applaud the staff enough. They have gone out of their way to ensure that the vital resident contact is maintained. The positive attitude of the staff and their reassuring manner when calling the home has been comforting for the relatives.
My father was very sick a few weeks ago, and from his latest video, he looks so much better!
Thank you to each and every one of the team, for your care of all the residents at Hall Park.

My mum has been in Hall Park permanently since July 2019, and she has been extremely happy and contented there. The whole of the staff are wonderful and so caring, my mum's health has deteriorated as expected, and the carers have kept me fully informed of mums condition so I can make arrangements to
get there and converse with them and the doctors.
Now during this covid19 virus, the home has been extremely quick in implementing the government’s guidelines to keep our loved ones safe, so a big, big thank you and well-done everyone working hard at Hall Park!

Overall Experience 3.0 out of 5
On visiting my Aunt on 11th March at the Hall Park Care Home, we escorted her into the dining room to find no dinner menu. The food on offer was pathetic, to say the least. Even the staff were unsure what it was and the portions were minute. Since you took over, you have put up the charges and the standard
of care has dropped dramatically. You need to sort this out!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Dad spent a week in Hall Park whilst building work was being carried out at his bungalow. He thoroughly enjoyed his stay, saying that he was well looked after. The staff were incredible - always making sure he was ok and asking him if he needed anything. They were a happy cheerful team! It felt just
like home - with home comforts and an en suite bathroom. The meals were amazing and Dad often had variations of the meals they provided! He found it very comfortable and made several friends in just a week. He will be returning, purely to visit some of the residents. He enjoyed the activities offered. Everyone was so caring and friendly. As his daughter, it gave me a lot of relief knowing he was in a safe and happy place. He would not hesitate in returning again if ever we need respite care again.

My father has recently become a resident at hall park and know this is a big change for him. The staff have made him feel at ease and we know he is well looked after and cared for.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Mum was very pleased with the accommodation - nice room, bathroom and lounges. The staff were very friendly and caring. There is a slight disappointment, however, with the food. Mum was sometimes not given enough food and the published menu was often changed on the day. Soup - although on the menu -
was not routinely offered and she was given only 2 small sandwiches, which amounted to one slice of bread at tea time. Sorry to be a bit negative, but meals are a very important part of the day.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.807)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.807) out of 10 for Barchester Hall Park Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 17 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 17 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 4.807 for Barchester Hall Park Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (169 Excellents x 5) + (27 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 202 Ratings = 4.807
  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 Barchester Hall Park Care Home is based on 17 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 17 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.
