Thank you so much, Michelle, for this review, your kind words inspire us and encourage us all to be the best we can be on a daily basis. We feel all residents should experience dignity and love at all times especially in their final days. It gives our team great pleasure to see families and their loved ones enjoying pleasant times together in an environment that is not a family home but we always like to think that our home is home to the families as well as our residents.

Dear Sheila, thank you so much for your review of Kenbrook. The staff are so appreciative of your lovely comments. After so many years of being a resident at Kenbrook, we feel such a void in the home now that your Mother in Law is no longer with us. We really miss her and of course, the whole family as you all spent so much time here in your home from home! We sincerely hope you will stay in contact with us here at Kenbrook and thank you once again for your review, we really appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.

Thank you for your review. It was a pleasure to look after your Mother, a woman of substance in every respect! Illness may rob a person of their true being but in your Mother's case, being a lady was very evident throughout her illness and the last stages of her life. Her presence and humanity will be missed by all the staff at Kenbrook and it was an honour and a privilege to have been able to support your Mother in her final days. Your continued support to the home is appreciated by all!

Kenbrook felt very homely and all of the staff were very warm and welcoming. The home was bright and cheerful with lots of photos and examples of recent activities on the walls of
All of the staff were very kind and very caring and always attentive to my Mum's needs. My Mum settled in straight away and she always seemed content and happy, which was a great relief to me.
My Mum stayed at Kenbrook for nearly two years until she recently passed away. During this time the level of care, she received, was first rate. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and it gave me peace of mind that she was being cared for by such wonderful people in a safe and caring environment.

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.869) out of 10 for Kenbrook is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 20 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.869 for Kenbrook is calculated as follows: ( (202 Excellents x 5) + (25 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 229 Ratings = 4.869
b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').
The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kenbrook is based on 20 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 20 Positive reviews. Points = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
