My husband has been in this care home for over 4 years and in all that time he has been treated with respect and dignity. He is now non-verbal but the staff understand his needs and treat him accordingly. His room is good although it does need a deep clean atm. All in all I am happy with the care he receives and don't worry about him at all.

My mum moved into Kavanagh Place before Christimas and everything was made so easy to get her settled in by the staff. She was included in all the activities from day one, which was brilliant and she loved it. The whole family are very pleased mum is here.

This was my son's first experience of respite care. Staff were wonderful at making him feel welcome. My son has complex care needs and these were all addressed with great care and dignity. His stay was during lockdown so he couldn't experience the full range of activities but was stimulated each day with indoor activities. He is happy to go back again which says it all and I would be happy for him to stay there again.

I visit a friend each Monday at Kavanagh Place in Kirkdale. I find his room is exceptional with every need. All of the staff are so respectful and make me welcome when I visit Monday's and Friday's. It has a warm and homely feel to the home. The care I see is unbelievable and they are a dedicated team, nothing is a trouble. I feel I should make the management know that they should be proud of the valued and dedicated team who look after my best mate.

The care and support given to both my husband and myself is outstanding. I always feel welcome and free to ask staff and management anything. I am always kept up to date with review dates and any changes to diet or care plans. His room and personal care is always clean, tidy and fresh.

Excellent care home, very understanding and helpful staff who do genuinely care for the residents; it's not just their job, they really treat residents like their own family members. Always spotlessly clean and well maintained. The home feels like a home from home. Residents (and their families) are encouraged to decorate bedrooms to personal taste to make them feel more at home. Residents have days out and are entertained during the day. An all-around excellent care home, nothing to fault.
