My mother stayed at Park View for 4 months. Overall, Park View is very well run and organised. On every level the care was excellent. All the staff were extremely professional, friendly and compassionate and there always seemed to be a high staff to resident ratio. The staff on my mother's floor took every effort to get to know her personally and bond with her, she settled in very quickly and was very happy at Park View. The Park View staff took care of all my mother's medical needs, including managing her hospital / doctors appointments. The communications were excellent; we were frequently updated on my mother's condition and activities. The facilities and environment are very good for residents and their visitors alike with several comfy lounge areas to spend time, including visitors being able to have Sunday lunch with residents. At all times we were completely confident that my mother was receiving the very best care and I recommend Park View very highly

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed and generous review. We are delighted that Mum settled so quickly and was happy during her time at Park View. Taking the time to understand each resident as an individual, while keeping families informed and supporting their medical needs, is incredibly important to us. It is also lovely to hear that you enjoyed spending time together in our lounges and sharing Sunday lunch. Thank you for placing your confidence in our team and for recommending Park View so highly <3

We recently chose Park View Care home for my father in law. From the off we found the staff to be knowledgable, helpful and kind. Our initial communication was with Pia who provided us with all the information that we needed and answered my numerous questions when we visited with professionalism....
The care provide for my Father In Law was brilliant. All of the staff were professional, helpful and above all caring of both the residents and their visitors. They treated my FIL with dignity and compassion.
Besides the amazing staff we chose this care home for the modern purpose built facilities, the large rooms and location. The appearance of the home was very important in the decision making process as my FIL didn't want a dark and doomy care home full of long corridors.
I can't thank the staff enough for the care and support they provided my FIL and the family.

Mum was lucky to spend the last years of her life at Park View. All of the staff were kind and caring and did everything they could to make her comfortable and happy. She enjoyed taking part in the range of activities that were planned for her and the other residents. When visiting I was always made to feel very welcome by both the lovely reception team and the carers on mum's floor. She couldn't have been anywhere better.

When seeking a care home for dad we needed somewhere that he would not only feel safe and be well cared for but would also offer him social interaction and entertainment that would work for a highly intelligent, private and dignified man who had dedicated his life to serving other people....
Park View exceed all expectations. The care was personalised, attentive and very much focused on dad's needs.
His quirks and character shaped everyone's interactions, so he felt very safe and comfortable from his arrival when he was fairly independent, right through to his death where he needed significant care.
His room was beautiful, he very much enjoyed his meals and the ability to contribute to discussions about how things could be improved (which were often taken on board and implemented) was valued.
Dad loved the entertainment and activities.
I felt confident in the team, who were incredibly supportive for dad, and our family. I would highly recommend here
Thank you for this incredibly thoughtful review. It was a privilege to care for Dad and to get to know him, experience his kindness and compassion, learn from him, and laugh with him.

From the moment I rang Park View to ask about respite care for my Father the care has been amazing. After respite Dad became a permanent resident in May 2024. Everyone at the home has been very welcoming and caring. Dad could not have been in a better home. Pia and her staff have done everything they could for Dad and all the family especially in Dad's last few days. I would recommend this home to everyone.
Thank you for sharing such kind and heartfelt words. It was a privilege to support your Father, and we were so glad when he decided to call Park View 'home'. He will be very much missed by us all and we are grateful to have been there to care for him until the end. Your recommendation means such a great deal to the whole team, thank you <3

The key factor that makes Park View special is that the care team really do care.
And that makes all the difference for the resident, and the families because we know our mother was in good hands.
Thank you to Pia and the rest of the team. And I am happy to recommend you to others, who want the best for their relative.
All the best,
Chris

My mum went into Park View Gloucestershire for two weeks respite. The staff were brilliant, caring and mum really enjoyed being in there. The food menu was good the staff friendly to all the family and there was lots of activities that mum would of really enjoyed had she been well enough.

My mother definitely didn't want to go to a care home, but was unsafe to stay at home. She took a few weeks to settle, but now she loves everything about Park View. She often comments on how lovely the staff are (she considers them friends) and how clean the place is and how good the food. She...
I didn't expect to enjoy visiting but I do! The staff are unfailingly friendly and kind and go out of their way to make the place welcoming.

Knowing that she enjoys the food and activities, feels comfortable with our team and now considers us friends means so, so much to us! We are equally pleased that you enjoy visiting and always feel warmly welcomed.
I live abroad and my mother did also before we moved her back to the UK as she could no longer look after herself. Mum has been in Park View for 4 years and never ceases to tell us how kind the staff are, and how well looked after she is. Pia was so easy to talk to and she spent all the time we...
It is such a relief, being so far away, to know how well she is taken care of. The staff in reception are also really friendly and efficient. Everyone at Park View really makes us feel like we're part of a big family.
Thank you for sharing such thoughtful feedback :) It means a great deal to know that, even from so far away, you still feel reassured that Mum is safe, happy and well cared for. Building lasting relationships with residents and their families is incredibly important to us, and your kind words will be shared with the team, who will be so pleased to read them xx
Super day celebrating 10 year anniversary of Park View they pulled out all the stops for the residents and their families. Great singer and just adorable to see the residents that were able to dancing away with the staff. Lovely cream tea and party bags. It really seems to me that all the staff...
My mum is moving from floor 2 into an apartment next week she is so excited and nothing has been too much trouble.
Thanks Pia and all her wonderful team for a lovely day x
Thank you for such a lovely review! Our 10th anniversary was a very special occasion, and seeing residents dancing and celebrating with their families made the day truly memorable.

We have been incredibly impressed with the commitment the staff here show to their job and the residents. They always treat my Dad with care and consideration and make family visiting feel very welcome. Whenever my Dad has been unwell, they are very prompt with ensuring he is okay and have saught medical assistance quickly. We no longer feel we need to worry about him as we know he is happy and in capable hands. He is now socialising with others and taking part in lots of activities with his new friends.

My aunt was resident at Park View for over 6 years and her health declined over that period leaving her with significant dementia. She was so well looked after during that time and her end of life care was exemplary. The care home is beautifully kept: it is light and airy with room for relatives...
But best of all is the staff. They are all so loving and caring. They really like their residents and look after each individual as if they were their own.
My aunt's end of life care included getting her back from hospital on Christmas Eve so she could be in her familiar place. She recovered from her fall but then declined a few weeks later. She was supported gently into her passing with such loving care that it eased the experience for me. It was a good death. Thank you.
Thank you so much for taking the time to share such a thoughtful and moving review. We are deeply touched by your kind words and truly honoured that Park View was your Aunt's home for so many years.

Due to an accident at my home I needed to find a respite nursing home for my 94 year old mum within a couple of hours. Despite it being a Sunday afternoon Parkview staff were amazing at accepting mum and getting her settled in. I could not believe how quick it was. Staff were so kind to mum and...

Before working in care, my career spanned diverse industry sectors providing management, accounting, administrative and technical services. Now a registered manager with CQC for older people’s services, I first worked in care as commercial manager for Learning Disability Services some 13 years ago. I then found my passion and career ‘home’ when I took a role as care manager in a home for older people. Since then I have managed residential and nursing homes for older people living with and without dementia and love the different challenges that every day brings. I believe that supporting our staff is key to enabling our residents to live fulfilled and happy lives, and my passion is creating a home that becomes a community where families and friends are welcomed – a place people call ‘home’, that feels like ‘home’.
My Fondest Memory is of my father (not known for showing his emotions, and now sadly passed) greeting me at age 19 after some months away from home, by picking me up and swinging me around saying how he had missed me. It took me back to being a little girl when he used to swing me and my sisters around and we would wait in turn to be swung again.

I am a customer-focussed Contract and Facilities Manager with a keen interest in the customer experience, either through designing physical environments and experiences, or by driving service and policy change to support a positive experience for all users.I have experience in supporting the managements of a variety of different public-facing services, either directly through my own and admin support mechanisms, or via the facilities management function. Over time I have worked with a wide range of customers, staff, and stakeholders from all walks of life, all ages and abilities.
I am skilled negotiator and communicator; someone who is patient, compassionate, and takes time to understand people and their behaviours to determine requirements and approaches. I believe that maintaining positive internal and external relationships is key to a productive work environment, and that seeking out community and professional partnerships is essential to inform best practice and keep up to date, share resources and raise the profile of the business.
My Fondest Memory is of spending a week making flowers with paper plates and egg boxes and tissue paper so we could totally fill my grandmother’s (known as Dang) house full of flowers for her return from holiday on Mother’s day. Her face was a picture

I started my professional carer working in the home improvement industry, working originally in admin the moving into a sales role and leading two sales teams. After personal circumstances I decided to change my carer path to which I became passionate about the development of my team to provide a high quality standard of individually tailored care for each person that I co-support.
I worked with people with learning difficulties and challenging behaviours for seven years, four as a senior team leader where I oversaw individual care on a 1:1 basis. I wanted to expand my knowledge on other sectors of care ranging from dementia to nursing. Since arriving at Parkview in July 2019 I have gained knowledge and support to allow me to progress with confidence to my current position.
My Fondest Memory was of my grandad. He was known as ‘Banky’ from where somebody couldn’t pronounce his name properly. We would always visit him on a Saturday at noon and he would always sit in his chair where he would watch grandstand or watching the horse racing on channel 4. He loved sitting in that chair watching sport drinking his tea.

Hi my name is Emily hiam and I have worked at park view for a year and a half, I started working a care setting in 2016 in a small care home.
I then came to park view and felt like I fitted in straight away, I really enjoy being a part of the residents lives! And them a part of mine. I love working with my team and all the staff.
My Fondest Memory I have is of my great grand parents, and going to see them every Sunday playing games and picking apples from the apple tree.

Trained at Cheltenham Catering College straight from leaving school in 1982. Worked in a variety of silver service restaurants and Hotels. I then progressed my career to contract catering working in the kitchen sections (Pastry, Mains etc). I was then offered a trainee Catering Manager position with the contract catering company and cooked for the executive dining rooms and workforce, as well as the staff restaurant.
Following this I went to a joint position as a Management couple for Beefeater Restaurants. A career move was made to Unilever foods as a Catering Manager for the next 18 years, catering for executive dining rooms, special functions and over one thousand employees to feed daily. I moved on from this to start my own business as a food hygiene trainer (still am) and although I enjoyed this , I soon missed the Cooking and serving. My passion for cookery helped me make the decision to come and work at Park View when it was offered.
I have worked at Park View for 4 years and have not looked back. I enjoy using my culinary skills to bring exciting new nutritional meals to our Residents.

I’m Lucy Wellbeing lead. For the last six years I have held two Wellbeing roles, previously working in Stroud. I moved into care from customer service roles after supporting a close friend as she died of cancer and I promised her I would get a job where I made a difference. I watched Park View being built and was delighted to get the position here. I absolutely love my job and feel it is a real priveledge to be working here at Parkview. My teacher always told me off for talking in class and said I wouldn’t get a job just by the ability to chat.. how wrong she was. I have a passion for making peoples day and making people smile.
I live locally in Tredworth with my two beautiful girls and my husband.
My Fondest Memory…
I only had my grandmother growing up as child. My mum’s parents had died before I was born and my dad’s dad died when I was too young to know him. I remember going to my grandmas house and sitting and chatting to her for hours. She always listened to me and I made her laugh. She always bought us bottles of coke but could never do the lid up properly I got very used to flat coke !

I left school and went straight into the army for 10 years and travelled the world which really opened my eyes. Since leaving the army I have learnt a number of trades but over the last 20 years have been working on buildings learning each different aspect. I enjoy the variety of working at Parkview because no two days are the same. I have 5 children and 11 grandchildren and lots of grey hair!
Fondest Memory, I remember going to my grandparents in the prefabs making dens with deckchairs in their flowery garden. I became known for eating the flowers.

I have worked in Care for many years working in different care homes and the hospital. I have worked at Park View since 2016 and started as a carer before being promoted up to Senior Carer but then I made the decision to move over into Housekeeping for our Apartments because it gives me a different perspective of caring for the residents and it gives me a great sense of satisfaction to know all the residents on my floor have a beautiful and clean environment to live in.
Fondest memory – my Nan had her snuff in her pocket and always cooked the best roast dinner – she always used to tell me, “Don’t forget to spray your ha’penny”
