Mum was in Kenroyal for 14 months with extreme dementia, unfortunately, she passed away recently (age 95), the treatment she received during her stay was absolutely amazing from the management and all of the staff but in her final week they were all wonderful in the treatment of both Mum and all the
family who visited, nothing was too much trouble.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since my mother's arrival at the Kenroyal in July 2016, I have been able to rest in the knowledge that my mother was safe and well cared for. My mother dies on 14th February 2019 from dementia and old age. Ahe was in her 99th year. During her final hours, my mother, family and I were given every consideration
and the care and attention could not have been better.
My heartfelt thanks go to the manager and all the staff at Kenroyal Nursing and Residential and consider my family very fortunate for our mother to have been found a place in this super home. Many thanks

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I suggest Kenroyal is the best nursing care home not only in Northamptonshire but probably in the country and I'm not only pleased but thankful my wife is a resident.
I've rated all services excellent.
In accommodation, all is as a 5-star hotel.
The management and staff are second to none and work
as a team.
When I visit I'm greeted with a smile and offer of tea and biscuits.
My wife is treated with care and dignity at all times.
If I needed care then be it at Kenroyal!

Over 3 years Kenroyal has been like a warm blanket around the whole family helping us through a sad journey.
We have complete trust in every member of staff who all do their work diligently and professionally and are a complete team of caring people.
Any query is dealt with immediately and all aspects
handled with transparency and truthfulness.
Thank you Kenroyal.

This care home was wonderful for my husband. I could not ask for more, they always treated my husband with respect and nothing was too much trouble. You could ask questions every time about his care and they always made the time to listen. The staff are the best you'll find.

Review from Joanne L (Daughter of Resident) published on 8 November 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father has been at the Kenroyal Nursing Home for the last few months, after being in hospital for ten weeks after a stroke. First reaction when we arrived was how friendly and inviting all the staff and manager were and the cup of tea on arrival was just what was needed.
My dad had a stroke which
left him unable to walk and talk and he also suffers from vascular dementia. Since arriving at the home, his speech has started to return due to the staff and residents stimulation in the conversation and activities which are daily. Food is good and the staff are so caring with the residents and also with us the family.

They treat my husband with the utmost respect. They look after him like one of their family. They make sure that he has plenty of fluids as he cannot do it for himself - nothing is too much trouble. When I visit, it is like they treat me as a family member making my visit much more bearable at a very
difficult time. Can't thank them enough.

My mother moved into Kenroyal at Christmas 2016 and died there this August. From the start, she was treated with respect, kindness and dignity. Every effort was made to keep her in good health both mentally and physically. Communication with visitors and family was excellent. We feel that as a family
we have been very lucky to have Kenroyal care for our relative.

We found the manager extremely competent and the staff both caring and respectful at all times. There was no area of mum's care that we were worried about. We were most thankful to have found Kenroyal for mum's final months.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum was the only resident for the last 6 months of her life but we couldn't have been happier with the care she received. It was clear by the end that the staff had got to know her and understood her needs and to an extent her wishes, even though she had increasing problems with communication. Particularly
impressed with the manager's connection with those under their care as individuals. Thank you to the manager and the rest of the staff.

The experience I have had has been amazing, so caring, helpful and a wonderful place for my dad to spend the rest of his days.
Nothing was too much trouble for them, everyone was so nice and we were always welcome. It was like home from home and like an extended family.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
Very impressive and caring. On my first visit, I was very impressed with the staff and general atmosphere. I arrived unannounced and was warmly greeted by a member of staff and shortly afterwards by the manager. I was offered refreshments - very welcome after a long journey. Observing staff on duty,
I noted that they spent all the time chatting, holding hands with residents, and attending to their needs. All staff seemed happy and caring, and acknowledged me, suggesting they realised I was a stranger. I may well be able to give more 'excellent' marks on a return visit.

Although mum was only there for just over a month before she passed away.
The time there was fantastic and she looked happy.
The staff were kind and attentive and residents were involved in activities.
I would recommend Kenroyal to anyone looking for a safe, friendly environment for a loved one in
need of nursing.

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.
