About Parkside Care Home
Parkside Care Home is a care home in Barnsley. We provide residential care for older people and younger adults, and we support people living with dementia and people managing a mental health condition. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places. Something worth saying plainly is how we handle complaints, because it reveals more about a home than any description of its facilities. Families often hold back from raising something small in case it makes things awkward for their relative, and that hesitation is exactly how minor problems turn into serious ones. So we ask relatives directly and regularly whether anything is wrong, and we would far rather deal with a grumble about the laundry this week than a letter of complaint in six months. Beyond that, the day belongs to the residents. People get up when they want, spend their time where they choose and see visitors when it suits them. Rooms belong to the people in them. Where somebody has lived with a mental health condition for years, we begin from what they tell us works. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and see us if you are considering care in Barnsley.
