Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
On all my monthly visits the staff I met, without exception, treated me with respect and dignity. I was asked if I knew the way to my friend's room. I was often asked if I would like a drink. My resident friend, despite sometimes being a little obstreperous, was also treated respectfully and dealt with
in a dignified way. Over time I got to know the manager. She took a personal interest in my friend (and very possibly, I think, every resident). She always greeted and treated me with kind deference.

My wife is a resident suffering with dementia. I visit every day. She is always washed, dressed and has had her breakfast.
The staff are always ready to help, polite and provide a drink. My wife has been in other care homes but here she is happy, well cared for, this is the best care home and our son
and daughter agree with this.

Since my father has been at the Kenroyal, roughly 2020 to present date, I have only good things to say. The home is so friendly and run in such a professional way by the manager. The care is amazing my dad receives. The staff are simply brilliant! Nothing is too much trouble. We are always assured he
is in safe hands and well looked after.

Since my mum arrived at Kenroyal 10 months ago she has been treated with dignity and care. We have all been welcomed into the Kenroyal family. The staff are very attentive and treat each resident as an individual. Mum often comments on the lovely food when I ask her and says that she is pleased she
doesn't have to prepare it herself anymore. When we leave after a visit we feel that we are leaving her in very safe and caring hands.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has been a resident at Kenroyal for just say 3 years. I have nothing but praise for the staff and management of the home. My father is well cared for and other is a genuine sense of community within the home itself. Despite his cognitive issues he gets on well with the staff and seems content.
As visitors, my brother and I are always welcomed, offered refreshments and updated on any issues with Dad. We're very secure in the knowledge that he is being well cared for.

My mother has been a resident for some years now. From the first day until now she has always had the best of care at all times. The staff are helpful and friendly. The food is first class and drinks are always at the resident's tables. Communication has been excellent throughout the years. An excellent
run home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident of Kenroyal Nursing & Residential Care Home for nearly 4 years until she passed away on the 7th of September 2023. Throughout that time I have nothing but praise for the home. Under the manager it was always a pleasure to visit, she was always well cared for, clean and comfortable.
She passed away suddenly before I could reach her but the manager and her team were with her and were wonderful as always.

My dad was unwell for the last couple of months and has been treated very well by staff and nurses. Always called me at the right time to take the right direction. The staff are so kind and polite with everyone. My dad has been here for the last 4 years and had really good care, never had any issues.
I prefer to keep him here.

I was very impressed with the care given to my friend. All the residents I noticed were being cared for. His lunch was of a high quality and served to him with patience and care. I find it a very humbling experience visiting Kenroyal because it must be very difficult looking after so many dementia residents
which I would never myself have the ability to achieve.

My mum has been in the home for approx 20 months and arrived from the hospital with very little appetite. They were very attentive to her and due to their diligence and care she finally started to eat. They have a very good activity department and all staff are very caring. The nurses are great at spotting
any health problems and doctor visits weekly. Spotlessly clean and the food looks appetising and hot.

I have seen so many changes in my husband since he was transferred from the hospital to this care home Kenroyal. He used to be very agitated when he was in the hospital and not eating well but since he's been here he's calmed down and settled. I believe because he feels at home in Kenroyal. The staff
are very caring which has made him settle well. The manager and the staff are always ready to listen to you and advise what you need to do. Their food is also great hence my husband eats well.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.868)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.868) out of 10 for Kenroyal Nursing & Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.868 for Kenroyal Nursing & Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (224 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 258 Ratings = 4.868
  2. 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 Kenroyal Nursing & Residential Care Home is based on 22 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 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
    2. 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 64 registered maximum number of service users is 12.8, which has been reached with 22 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
