"Sadly the time came whereby I needed to find a nursing home for my mum due to her ongoing long term health condition which had deteriorated. I had visited many care homes trying to find the right place for my mum. As soon as I walked into Parkview it just felt right !! Beautifully clean, very well presented, very helpful and accommodating staff who were also well presented in their smart clean uniforms, and above all, no unpleasant smell anywhere in the home. I was warmly greeted by the manager who was so very understanding, reassured me totally that this was the place for my mum where she would be in safe and caring hands with her staff. Although the time my mum spent there was very short only a couple of weeks before she passed away, the care, empathy and compassion were clear to see and I am very grateful to the manager and her staff for the care my beautiful mum was given whilst in their hands. Thank you from the bottom of my heart."

"In these times where visiting has not been allowed the staff have kept me informed of my mother's situation and consulted me regularly for decisions regarding her health and welfare. It is difficult to assess facilities, cleanliness, food and drink and activities without having been inside for a long time. New pod visiting facilities are adequate, but I hope for bedroom visits soon."

"I attended an open day at another Barchester home and was impressed. I learned that Park View was part of the group and was in Dagenham, a better location for my mother. I paid a visit before the need arose and found it welcoming. When we needed a place they were very helpful in finding her a room. I have been impressed with the administrative and care staff. They arranged a garden visit, important as Mum settled in and then Skype video calls. Obviously I haven't seen the home operate under 'normal' conditions since July."

Thank you"

"Park View came as a recommendation and I now understand why. Placing a family member into care is a difficult decision (particularly during a time of Covid) and the staff at Park View recognises this and is fully supportive. All staff are professional with the bonus of being extremely thoughtful and kind. They are considerate to both residents and family alike and provide excellent care."

Craig Tcarehome.co.uk rating: 5 out of 5

"My father benefitted from a consistently high standard of care during his time at Park view, a total period of 3 years and 8 months. I was struck by the care and attention all of the staff provided to my father, despite the fact that due to his deteriorating health his behaviour could be challenging at times. Through all of this, his carers maintained a friendly and professional demeanour. He liked living at Park View and it gave him a good and supportive home in which his life came to an end."

"Me and my family spent many many hours over a 24 day period visiting my aunt whilst she was being cared for here. The level of both personal and medical care she received was the best we could have ever have hoped for at this extremely difficult time. This period of time was intense for all of us and even though the team are busy they gave us an enormous amount of support too. Hats off to the manager and his team of nurses, carers, assistants, cleaners, cooks, admin staff, maintenance men, laundry ladies, they are a credit to you. Thank you once again."

I requested him to be moved to another floor which is quieter and since he doesn't like noise, the floor he is on now seems ok and feels like home. Very clean, good staff, good management, good food and lovely views."

"Staff are very friendly, open and caring. My mother is well-fed, has lots of activities offered to her with at least one member of staff on hand at all times. They always call me up to inform me of any event on her health/wellbeing. The place is clean and secure with wholesome food. The home has different floors within a massive house to accommodate people with different ailments eg dementia floor but also has a large communal floor for socialising under supervision. Feel of the place is very professional and smart and clean and organised. Masses of staff from cooks to the manager 24/7 and carers and cleaners. Highly recommended."

"I am pleased with the level of care that is been provided for my friend. On my weekly visits, I see staff being attentive to patients. They are always smiling, two in particular. I believe these two communicate extremely well with the patients. They keep the mood light, playing music, games and laughing which keep clients upbeat and energetic. It can be difficult to handle the mood-swings of dementia clients but all the carers on "memory lane" do an excellent job with defusing situations and getting under control immediately. Well done, keep it up."

Wanted to say a huge thank you to all staff for looking after her so well during her time at Park View. Carers are dedicated, hard working and are all stars. The nursing staff deserve a special mention they were great. She was treated with dignity and respect and felt cared for and staff would make time to pop into her for a chat when they could. Park View is a happy welcoming place and I would recommend it."

"Our mum sadly died aged 100 years in December 2015. She had lived for over 8 years in Parkview and it was her home during a period in her life when she was suffering from advanced dementia and was bed bound.The care and support given to our mum by Parkview was excellent. When she became frail mentally and physically she was looked after in hospitals and in several care and nursing homes as her health deteriorated Park view was the best. This is not to say we did not have issues from time to time however as a family we were never in any doubt that she was in the best place for her needs to be met. We are a large family and were made to feel welcome and end to be involved in mum's care. This was exemplified during the last few weeks and days of her life when the manager and all her staff was absolutely marvelous. We cannot praise the end of care support highly enough."
