On 12 September 2026, I found my mother unresponsive, dehydrated, in pain, with significant weight loss and her mouth filled with a hard, thick layer of old, dried food. I asked staff to call an ambulance and she was taken to hospital with blue lights. Doctors confirmed dehydration, pain and signs of a chest infection.
I had provided clear written instructions that my mother must only receive pureed or blended food. Despite this, I was informed by a Hospital nurse that a solid piece of meat had become lodged in her throat and had to be removed manually.
My mother is now in hospital, remains unresponsive, and I have been informed that she can no longer be fed orally.
I am deeply concerned about the care she received. These circumstances require a full safeguarding investigation. My mother deserved proper care, dignity, nutrition, hydration and protection.

My ex husband has been a resident at Kenwood for over one year now. It's his 'home' and he enjoys the great attention and care from all the staff, from Edith the manager to all the carers, the nurses, the activities co-ordinator, the chef and kitchen staff, the admin lady and cleaners. There's always a smile at the door and a laugh in the lounge. It's reassuring as a genuine caring attitude is very important for the quality of life of my ex-husband.

We are very grateful to the lovely staff (carers and nurses) and amazing care home manager Edith at Kenwood who have provided excellent and consistent care for my father for >2.5 years. There is warmth and empathy in the hearts of all the staff here, they truly do care! Edith manages medical matters and issues (including confusion arising from father's dementia) with the same level of concern, care and thoroughness that we would do for our own father. Father is well adjusted and calls his room 'my place'. He is always clean with no bad smells, clean shaven, hair trimmed, nails clipped. Clothing, rooms, hallways and common areas are always clean. Fun parties with live music are held - a great opportunity to meet other residents and their families. Father's weight has remained stable since admission. We visit father often and are always welcomed warmly. We're so grateful to have chanced upon Kenwood after seeing many other homes and know that father is in great hands here!
Dear G,
Thank you for trusting us to be of service to your wonderful father in-law, it is always a pleasure of ours to do the best we can each day as we provide the service.
Thank you for all your support towards all of us a team at Kenwood, we are grateful.
Best wishes.
Mum has been in Kenwood for a number of months now. She has deteriorated quite quickly but I have found that Edith and all her staff have responded to her changing needs quickly and with care and sympathy, both towards us the family and my mum. All the staff, without exception are friendly and...
The care mum receives is good.On two occasions Edith has spotted Mums deteriorating health very early and got her the appropriate medication really quickly before mum deteriorated too far. Mum will be 100 in a few weeks and I think that is partly due to the care she is receiving at Kenwood.
We initially largely chose Kenwood for geographical reasons but I can honestly say I have no regrets at all. I think they do their best by their residents in a respectful and kind way even when faced with very tricky situations with some difficult characters!
Dear N,
Thank you ever so much for this feedback, we are so humbled and honoured that you entrusted us with your lovely mother's care. We are so happy that we are able to make a small difference in your mother's wellbeing and care. We so much look forward to the 100th year birthday party.
Many thanks and Best wishes.

My dad was only at Kenwood for the last five weeks of his life, however, within this time he was treated with dignity and respect, he was peaceful and rested and this is due to the kind, friendly staff. We are extremely happy with the care provided and would not hesitate to recommend it to others.

My mother was cared for at Kenwood Care Home prior to her recent death in January 2024. The care staff there are great, I witnessed genuine care and compassion for her. It was reassuring to see how so many of the staff built up a personal relationship with her during a difficult time as her health declined. The whole family is pleased that she went to a happy home, with professional caring staff, who go above and beyond to keep people happy, healthy and entertained. Shane.
Thank you for your kind words about our home and caring team. Our team really take pride in the support they offer to the residents staying with us. It will be a pleasure to pass on your feedback your mother's care, she is dearly missed by us all.

I wish to express my gratitude for the care shown my father during his time at Kenwood. I especially want to thank the General Manager and staff, who have exceeded expectations. Since his arrival, they have shown support, respect and kindness, and his health and well-being are much improved. He participates in activities when able, is engaged with people and events, and interacts fully with residents and staff. The staff focus on residents’ best interests in all endeavours. New residents complete a lifestyle form, indicating their food preferences, hobbies, and interests. Meals and activities are planned in advance, so residents always know what to expect. Rooms are spacious and well-designed, with excellent amenities and create an environment suitable for seniors. All areas are clean and well-maintained and the building is safe and secure. The staff also provide family members with a progress report on the activities, health and well-being of their relative.
My dad was looked after very well. Top marks for food and care and would use it again if needed. Was pleased with the clean conditions and friendly staff that could not do enough for us. Thank you very much for looking after my dad in the last stages of dementia and his life.

Kenwood Care Home welcomed us with open arms, creating a warm and inviting environment. The manager's passion for her role shines through in every interaction, as she and her team go above and beyond to ensure each resident's well-being and happiness.
Caring for a loved one with dementia comes with unique challenges, but the team at Kenwood handles them with professionalism and empathy.
What sets Kenwood Care Home apart is the genuine passion displayed by the manager and her team. They take the time to understand individual preferences and needs, fostering a sense of belonging and well-being.
I wholeheartedly recommend this exceptional facility to anyone seeking outstanding care and a genuine sense of family.
