Review from Kirsty L (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 8 October 2025 Submitted via Website • Report

My Grandad moved into Kinning Park Care home almost 2 years ago and he is in the best shape he has been in, in a long time.

He is safe, cared for and looked after beyond any measure I could ever have hoped for.
He is happy.

When I visit the care home, the management and staff are always welcoming

with a smile on their face. If I mention my grandad has a headache or any other such ailment, he is tended to immediately.

We, as a family couldn't wish for a better care home, or to have better staff working there.

His room is always clean and tidy (as is he).

The activities that are put on for the residents are brilliant, I've enjoyed taking part in a few myself, and I really enjoy the newsletter that is sent out as I get to see things that have happened when I haven't been there.

The food always looks and smells great and my Granda is often full of compliments, which is an achievement in itself as he used to be very fussy.

All in all, a fantastically run place.

Thank you! The Kinning Park Care team will always strive for excellence in providing quality care.

Review from M B (Daughter of Resident) published on 6 October 2025 Submitted via Postal Card • Report

I always find the staff approachable, friendly, caring and professional. They are attentive to residents. Lots of activities on offer with residents treated to outings or inhouse entertainment. The local nursery kids also visit. I feel very lucky to have my mum being looked after in this home.

Thank you for this review, We strive as a team at Kinning Park to provide excellence in care.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.694)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.694) out of 10 for Kinning Park Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 3 Reviews in the last 24 months.
The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 3 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:

5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.944 for Kinning Park Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (34 Excellents x 5) + (2 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 36 Ratings = 4.944
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 3.75 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kinning Park Nursing Home is based on 3 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 = 3.25
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 30 registered maximum number of service users is 6. 3 Positive Reviews ÷ 6 = 0.5
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.
