Working at Parkview Care Home

Enough staff to match needs with steady rotas, but sometimes it takes a while to respond when buzzed.

Per 2018: 'I feel there are generally enough staff; I am here almost every day, though at times it's a while before staff respond to the buzzer.'

Standard training covers the basics like safeguarding and manual handling, but no specialist courses or funded qualifications.

Per 2018: 'Staff had access to a range of training including manual handling, infection control, health and safety, risk assessments, fire safety, safeguarding, MCA/DoLS and equality and diversity.'

Lots of varied activities like bingo, outings and music, but no dedicated activities coordinator so staff fit it around other duties.

Per 2018: 'Although there was no dedicated member of staff for activities, staff members we observed were keen to keep people mentally and physically stimulated... planned activities for each day.'
