Review from Kal A (Son of Resident) published on 22 August 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
The home is a new build home and is very modern with fantastic facilities; this is relevant as my father compares this to a luxury hotel, which makes all the difference to him.
Overall, our experience has exceeded our expectations. The staff are professional and caring and most of all patient with
residents. It takes a certain character to work in care homes and I truly believe Glenvale Park has the best of the best when it comes to the staff.
We are very engaging with the senior management and they are very receptive to our opinions and thoughts on aspects of my father's care; from food to medical, and everything in between.
There are always plenty of activities for residents to engage in and build a community within which is very supportive to other residents.
Overall it gives me great comfort to know that my father is being well looked after.
I cannot thank to team enough.

Review from C S (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 13 July 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
When making initial enquiries for respite care for an elderly relative we were impressed with the friendly, responsive and informative details received over the phone from Glenvale Park. A visit was offered and a tour of the facilities followed. Our relative moved in for respite care and then as a permanent
resident. The care provided has been exemplary and we are always able to speak to a member of the team if we have any questions/concerns. It is a lovely, friendly atmosphere. The care home is new and the facilities are modern, functional and the staff are well trained and cater for all the needs of the residents. We are delighted that we found such a warm and friendly home for our relative.

The care my parents have experienced here is the best I have seen anywhere. The management and staff are wonderful and take their time to make sure everyone is happy and well cared for. Everything is done with professionalism, genuine concern and a smile. The rooms and facilities are beautiful, like
a 5-star hotel. There are always fun and stimulating activities, everyone is encouraged to take part. The health and well-being of my parents are of utmost importance to the staff who go above and beyond what is required. The peace of mind I have knowing my parents are safe and well cared for at Glenvale Park is priceless!

From the moment I walked into Glenvale Care Home, I knew this was the perfect place for my parents. The staff are all so lovely and caring and go above and beyond. It is very clear to see that they are all passionate about the varied jobs they do. Mum and Dad are very happy there with everything they
could possibly need provided. Thank you to all the Glenvale team.

Review from E D (Resident) published on 27 June 2022 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
In late March, my husband, of 72 years, and I both tested positive for Covid. My husband got worse and had to go into hospital where he sadly died in early April. When I was clean of Covid - the building work at home resumed. I needed to get away from the dust and noise, so I was pleased to get into
Glenvale Park on the 19th of April. While at Glenvale, the staff were kind and most attentive, walking me around the care home every day was useful for keeping my legs working and very nice for getting a breath of fresh air. My only thought for improvement relates to the food. Elderly folk will often find vegetables cooked 'Al Dente' a little hard to chew. Perhaps residents should be asked if they have special needs relating to food?
Reply from Rex Pudol, Home Manager at Glenvale Park

Thank you so much for your valuable feedback, we are delighted that you had a positive stay at Glenvale and enjoyed your time with us. We take all feedback very seriously and we have passed your comments on to both the kitchen and care teams.

Glenvale Park is an excellent care home which I highly recommend. Credit must be given to the manager who is fantastic; he treats everyone with great dignity and respect and really knows how to bring the best out of the residents and staff, all of whom have been very welcoming. It is a bright, modern,
friendly home with high standards, and it is lovely to visit. My mum is extremely happy here and has settled in very quickly. The all-inclusive model also gives peace of mind; she can enjoy treats like hairdressing without worrying about end-of-month costs.

Thank you so much for your kind words. I have a passionate, hardworking and devoted team supporting both myself and our residents, I am proud of the level of care that they provide and I will take great pleasure in passing on your wonderful feedback. Thank you.

My father was very anxious about moving into Glenvale Park, but immediately the staff made him feel welcome, and within a few minutes, he was laughing and joking with them. Everyone at the care home has been wonderful, and it's lovely to see my dad looking happy and very well cared for. The staff really
couldn't do anything more for him; I can't praise them enough. The facilities are second to none, more like a hotel than a care home, bright and modern. It's beautiful.

Review from M J (Son of Resident) published on 6 June 2022 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Both of my parents are now residents of Glenvale Park. A combination of health issues after a fall and dementia left them unable to look after each other at home, even with support. Mum became a resident whilst dad was in hospital and the staff went out of their way to help her settle. Dad was originally
discharged into another home which was awful by comparison and we moved him as soon as we could arrange it. The management at Glenvale Park helped every step of the way with that move, going above and beyond as my dad was so distressed where he was. Now they are both reunited the whole team has been so supportive of them both whilst they adjust to this huge change. They keep all the family informed and mum often says she is living in a lovely hotel. The food and facilities are excellent. The peace of mind that this level of care provides is priceless.
Reply from Alicia Bradon, Marketing at Glenvale Park

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this wonderful review. We are so pleased we are able to care for both mum and dad together and reunite them in our home. The happiness and health of our residents are tremendously important to all team members. We look forward to sharing this excellent review with them.

Mum has been looked after so well. The staff are so very friendly and attentive. The home is beautiful and well thought out. Rooms are really comfortable with lots of well thought out storage. Mum is enjoying her meals and is having plenty to eat. The activities are good and varied and Mum has enjoyed
joining in. I would thoroughly recommend Glenvale Park. A big thank you to all staff.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.813)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.813) out of 10 for Glenvale Park 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 41 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 39 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 4.813 for Glenvale Park is calculated as follows: ( (406 Excellents x 5) + (59 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 480 Ratings = 4.813
  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 Glenvale Park is based on 39 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 66 registered maximum number of service users is 13.2, which has been reached with 39 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.
