My dad has been here for 3 weeks now and I am very happy with everything. Dad has a great room with his own toilet and big space. The facilities are all good, the day rooms, toilets and dining room. Staff are great, one staff member in particular has been amazing and goes above and beyond to help us. A secure building which is great as it reassures no one is getting out.

My mum moved into The Knowles on 13/09/2023 and since being here has received first-class service whilst settling into her new surroundings. The staff are very helpful and extremely friendly to all residents and visitors.

My daughter and I cannot express our gratitude and praise for The Knowles care home. The manager and carers are so kind and compassionate. My husband was so well looked after by them all and to us during our everyday visits. The care home is outstanding in every way, second to none.

After new decorating throughout the home, the feeling of organisation, the staff, as have always been, are caring and patient. I've seen them stop whatever they are doing to take people to the toilet (which can be a long job) and changing clothes sometimes. If we have any questions they are always answered. The cleaner, laundry girl, young men and women and older staff are genuinely caring. We are at peace knowing our mother is protected.
Thank you for your review and positive feedback and it is great to read you are at peace knowing your mother is protected. Thank you, once again, for your review and we will share it with the team.
My mum has been at The Knowles for a long time and is doing very well thanks to their care. If there's anything she needs, they see to it. When we visit her, they offer us dinner as well. Great care home.

Overall, I find the home very pleasant. The staff are all very polite and good to the service users. I like that the service users have always got or get drinks, perhaps encouragement to drink would help. The curtains/bed linen could do with updating and perhaps a shelf in the room for personal possessions. I did mention to the manager that I thought the carpets could do with being replaced with vinyl flooring as it is more hygienic, he assured me that they have started to update the upstairs and will include getting rid of carpets. Bigger TV would be a good idea in the lounge. I always get offered a hot drink.

I find the staff to be very helpful and friendly, the management really seems to care for the residents. I could not ask for a better care home for my grandad.

When visiting my brother-in-law, I always find the staff to be very friendly, helpful and efficient. Activities for all residents are very stimulating, especially the singer. I always know that when I leave, my brother-in-law is in safe hands.

Thank you for your review and thank you for acknowledging the great work our staff carry out. We have a live singer at The Knowles every Wednesday afternoon, put your dancing shoes on and feel free to drop by!
My mum has been here for a couple of weeks. The staff and the manager have been wonderful with her. Helping her with her needs, encouraging her to be more mobile and to eat. Mum is settling well with all the lovely carers helping her.

My mum has settled really well at The Knowles and that is because the staff and management are very nice and do an excellent job of caring for my mum. Very clean and her room is very good.
