Knightswood Residential Home

My mother is well looked after here in Knightswood. The staff and management are excellent and very caring, they show great patience with her which is very necessary due to her condition. The home is very secure and both myself and father are very satisfied with her care and communication is good. There is regular visits from other care professionals such as Chiropodist, Optician, Hairdresser and there is regular entertainment. My mother is not the best of eaters but the food provided is very good and staff always encourage my mother to eat.

Staff very friendly and supportive to both mum and the family. They go the extra mile to help with a caring approach from everyone. The rooms lounge etc. are always clean and tidy. Great facilities and social events. This is a lovely care home with great staff.

We are always kept up to date on all matters or changes.

I placed my mum in Knightswood on December 19th, 2016, after both her and myself not being happy with her last care facility. Well, what can I say? Mum is a changed person! The staff are fantastic they can't do enough for our mother, what a difference we cannot fault this place at all. The manager is a lovely lady the carers treat mum with dignity and respect there are loads of activities and it's very homely.

The care and attention from the staff that each resident receives 24/7 is fantastic. There is a homely and welcoming feel about the home and the best care home that I have seen of visited.

The staff make a good or negative experience in any social care settings and here they genuinely care. The home facilities are clean and welcoming with a choice of seating areas. Relatives are well informed of changes in health or care needs. The care planning is person-centered and flexible. Personal care is of a good standard and residents are offered a choice in how they are supported to maintain independence.

My father had been in Knightswood since April of 2013. During that time the level of care and expertise was never less than excellent. My father, being 95, had all the age related difficulties expected i.e mobility etc, plus dementia. Whenever the family visited we were welcomed by all and dad was always clean, shaved, changed and obviously well looked after. He recently died at the home, with ourselves in attendance, where father was treated with great dignity and the support we received was outstanding.
