Following a previous bad experience of respite care, we put my stepfather into Kenyon Lodge with some trepidation as it is very hard to judge a place from initial contact/visits. The CQC guide is outdated and worthless and essentially you are taking a leap of faith. However, everything went well, he
enjoyed his stay and all the family who visited him whilst there said the staff were friendly, attentive and caring. When we picked him up staff and management were very good and my stepfather was in good health and spirits. We hope to be able to use the home again!!

Reply from Shaun Morrissy, Home Manager at Kenyon Lodge

Thank you for taking the time to submit a review and for your kind words, it was our pleasure to be entrusted to care for your stepfather and we look forward to him staying with us again in the future. Such positive feedback is always well received by the staff team who often go unrecognised for all the hardwork they do to ensure that they deliver the highest standards of care possible. Thank you again.

Mum moved to Kenyon Lodge on 3rd April 25 on end-of-life care. Mum was peg-fed and required full nursing care. The staff were warm, caring and compassionate in treatment of Mum, and also in supporting us as a family through this tough and upsetting time. We witnessed the care that was shown to other
residents of the home, the wonderful patience shown by all staff and the warm and friendly atmosphere of the place.

Thank you for taking the time to submit such a positive review of the quality of care our staff always strive to deliver to all of our residents at Kenyon Lodge.

Dad came to stay at Kenyon Lodge in Feb 2025 for end of life care. Sadly he passed this month (April). It was a big adjustment for dad who had always had independence and was used to living alone (and for rest of the family) but the staff really helped dad to settle. Particularly 5 members of staff
who called me two days before dad passed to enable us to be with him right until the end and the carer who was with us in dad's last moments. Even the domestics (particularly 2 of them) and the Maintenance man would stop for chats with dad, talking about his hobbies and helping him feel more normal despite his illness. Any issues were picked up promptly and professionally by the deputy manager.

My stepdad was in Kenyon lodge on respite for his 60th birthday, he loved the staff and their attentiveness. He particularly liked a certain member of staff and enjoyed chatting with him. He enjoyed spending time with other residents, watching television and spending time outside on the warmer days.
He was welcomed with a warm smile everyday and this really contributed to his happiness during his stay.

Family members are not safe under Kenyon Lodge's care. Nursing staff failed to call an ambulance when clear stroke signs were being exhibited and she was found unresponsive in her room after being left alone for 1.5 hours.
Food is not home cooked contrary to some other reviews, as one of the 'chefs'
told us we do not cook the food, it is brought in as we cannot cook for 60 residents. Staff openly call the manager names. Very unprofessional.
Care staff do not respond quick enough to residents who are on palliative care ringing their buzzer. I have witnessed with other residents as well as my own family member.

Reply from Shaun Morrissy, Home Manager at Kenyon Lodge

My parents moved into Kenyon Lodge during the pandemic and lived there for over three years until my father's death in November 2023. It is difficult to sum up in words the peace of mind I had whilst they were there, but I will try to convey in this review, my personal experience. The staff are caring,
conscientious, and polite and do their upmost for the residents. Because I was permitted to be there beyond visiting times due to unique circumstances, I knew the staff continued with their dedicated work. In short, when you have a family member in KL, you become part of the KL family and together with the management and staff, you create the optimum atmosphere for your loved ones. When my mum passed away at the beginning of 2023, it was as though the staff had lost a member of their own family as they become so close to the residents. My dad continued to live at Kenyon Lodge after my mother's death and when he passed away, knowing that he was so well cared for, was a great comfort.

Reply from Shaun Morrissy, Home Manager at Kenyon Lodge

Thank you for your kind words, such positive feedback is much appreciated by the whole staff team, who always strive to deliver the highest quality care to our residents at all times. It was our pleasure to be entrusted with the care of your parents who are still very much missed by the staff.

Moving my dad for the 3rd time has been very difficult. I was nervous at first as I live close by and heard it had a poor reputation. Dad has been here for 6 months and he has no pressure sores which is unusual as he is bed-bound and had many before. He has a few baths more here and he has not sat in
a chair in 3 years. I was amazed to see this and very thankful, he also gained weight which is positive.

Kenyon Lodge is a secure and safe place for my elderly mother.
The standards of cleaning, care and continuous attention to detail is excellent and I am confident that my mum is very well cared for.
The dayrooms and dining rooms are clean, well-presented and well-used.
I particularly like the central
garden areas where walkways and benches add real value and again, are well used by residents and visitors and a nice view out of bedroom windows.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a lovely review of Kenyon Care Home, of the care provided and the environment available for the residents and their loved ones to enjoy. We cannot wait to see the end result of the garden space once fully completed.

Mum came to Kenyon Lodge initially for respite care over Christmas. She returned on a permanent basis at the beginning of February.
She has settled in well and enjoys the company and activities, having her hair and nails done as well is a bonus.

Changes to Kenyon over the last 12 months, new manager, refurb (tidy up) and new staff have all been positive and the family feel it has improved our experiences and Mum's care. The nursing staff and carers know Mum well and provide personalised care for her. Mum is settled in Kenyon and we feel that

My dad moved into Kenyon Lodge after coming out of hospital after a bad fall, which he no longer could walk after. He suffered with severe dementia. The staff at Kenyon Lodge looked after him so well, caring about his wellbeing. The nurses in particular were wonderful. If in the future I had to go into
a care home myself, this would be the place for me. I can't recommend the home as much as I am, it's wonderful.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.547)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.547) out of 10 for Kenyon Lodge is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.5 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 19 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.547 for Kenyon Lodge is calculated as follows: ( (164 Excellents x 5) + (46 Goods x 4) + (17 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 234 Ratings = 4.547

  • 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 Kenyon Lodge is based on 19 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 19 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.
