  • Park View Residential Care Home, Sheffield
Park View is a home which has some wonderful spaces for residents to enjoy – from a beautiful light and airy atrium, a café, as well as spacious bedrooms, with ensuite wet rooms.

It's a special home, so much so that it's been shortlisted as a finalist in the Caring UK Awards 2023, for the North Care Home of the Year category.

The team provide residential, dementia and respite care, which can be booked in advance. They are passionate about Sanctuary Care’s enriching lives framework, based on the six senses people need to feel truly happy and fulfilled – a sense of achievement, belonging, continuity, purpose, security and significance.

For example, many of the residents love gardening, so the home has its own vegetable plot, where they love to grow their own produce. Some residents love to cook, so the chef devotes time to running regular cookery and baking sessions.

At residents’ meetings, they discuss activities they would like to do. For example, this summer they talked about a seaside trip, so the team organised a day at Cleethorpes Beach, a destination chosen by the residents. More animal visits were wanted, so they recently welcomed Shetland ponies along.   

Other activities the residents enjoy doing include gentle exercise sessions, live music, trips out into the community and pampering in the hairdressing salon.

The team regularly take residents to the ‘Motion Games’, where they join other care home residents for mini-Olympic games. They love it so much, the team have recreated many of these activities back at the home, like bean bag throwing, parachute games and badminton.   

Many of the residents love spending time with children, so the team involve their families in the home. Staff brought their children in fancy dress for a Disney themed party recently, where they sang and danced with the residents.

There is also a private Facebook page, for families and friends of the home.

My mother has been here since April and settled really well. The care is good and I'm happy with the home, staff are friendly, it's clean and safe, and I would recommend it for any of my family members/friends/or relatives. My mother has day trips out and there are a lot of activities for her to keep
her stimulated.

I find Park View has a welcoming, friendly and calm atmosphere at every visit. The purpose-built design works really well compared to other homes I've been involved with over the last 10 years, as it gives residents a choice of where to spend their day rather than looking at the same 4 walls or constant
TV. The meals are home-cooked and varied. The staff are really supportive to families as well as the residents, they keep you well informed and are quick to respond to any worries.

My mom only became a resident at Park View in March but even in this short period of time the change in our mom has been phenomenal and me and my two brothers put it down solely to the fantastic team at the home. Nothing is too much trouble and it’s a great peace of mind to us to know that she is happy
and getting the care she needs as and when required. Thank you to the manager and all the team.
Reply from Sophie Middleton, PR Officer at Park View Residential Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review. I am so pleased to hear your Mom has settled in the home so well and you and your brothers have peace of mind at the level of care she is receiving. I will pass your comments to the home's team. Best wishes

Review from Les H (Husband of Resident) published on 2 November 2018 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My wife has been resident at Park View for just over three years. Due to the manager and her entire team of loving, dedicated staff, my wife has remained stable as regards her Alzheimer's problem.
Recently, major refurbishments have been made to floors, lighting, corridors and furniture which really
makes it more like a hotel than a care home.
Quite honestly my wife couldn't be in a home with more loving, dedicated carers.

I do think that a member of the Carers Team should go with patients suffering with Alzheimer's. They don't know what is happening and can't answer questions for the doctors (going to the hospital if not well or had a fall).
Reply from Andrea Stenton, Manager at Park View Residential Care Home

Thank you for recommending Park View. I was sorry to read the comment about not having an escort for appointments as you have said you would prefer yourself or another family member to accompany your sister to appointments. As discussed, if there are instances where you would like us to go instead please do let us know.

Laundry is very much improved. The cleanliness of hoist used to get residents out of bed and into shower leave a lot to be desired. Once a month is not enough when being used for other residents.
Meals are very good, never been a drop in standards by cooks.
Activities are minimal (when hairdressers
is classed as an activity).
Reply from Andrea Stenton, Home manager at Park View Residential Care Home

Thank you so much for your review. I am pleased to say we have had a recent review of activities so will be making some changes imminently. I am really sorry about your thoughts regarding the hoist and can reassure you that I have spoken to my team who will be doing extra cleaning checks.

My mum has been a resident at Park View since February this year and has settled in well to her new home. She is well looked after and all the staff are very caring towards my mum. The food is excellent and the activities are good. My mum especially enjoys the little trips out. The outdoor space is
good and my mum enjoys her little walks in the garden and sitting in the sunshine.
I have no hesitation in recommending Park View and have done so to numerous people.

Very happy with the care and support my Dad receives at Park View. The staff try their best despite sometimes being stretched. The facilities are great and the activities are varied and inclusive. I particularly enjoy it when they have a singer on and I can join my Dad and other residents, who all join
in as its revitalizes them.

I visited my Grandma in Park View with my two young children when she had been there for just over a month. We live overseas and the staff had really gone out of their way to encourage my Grandma to be excited about our visit. They knew who we were as soon as we walked through the door and I could instantly
see that they had been working hard to build her morale and genuinely care for her. We have spent a number of sunny afternoons in the easily-accessible garden.

My mum is a new resident at Park View. So far the staff have made my mum's move extremely easy for all concerned.
The staff and management go out of their way to provide an excellent service in all aspects of her daily living.
They understand the needs she has being a dementia patient.
Activities
are fantastic, service users are encouraged to take part in activities they would normally have forgotten.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.743)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.743) out of 10 for Park View Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 43 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 43 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 4.743 for Park View Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (393 Excellents x 5) + (108 Goods x 4) + (12 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 513 Ratings = 4.743
  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 Park View Residential Care Home is based on 43 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 43 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.
