Kendal Care Home

Staff very caring and informative. Visitors made welcome every day. Nothing too much trouble for them. All in all, very good.

Delighted to see my aunty being so well looked after in excellent surroundings by very caring and considerate staff. Well done! (And I'm very fussy).

Thank you.

Everyone most helpful, go beyond their duty. How they know your name and keep smiling I will never know. A very caring home and friendly.

The conservatory was decorated especially with yellow roses, the food was delicious, music chosen with care and entertainment first class. Staff came to offer congratulations with tears in their eyes. Genuine affection. Thank you so much.

The manager and the staff were helpful, pleasant and caring, going the extra mile on what was a difficult day. Could not have asked for more.

Always feel welcome when visiting my parents. Friendly, professional and caring atmosphere in Kendal Care Home. Residents and visitors treated with respect. Queries and requests always welcomed and acted upon positively. Staff always willing to help - with a smile!

Always found the home to be very good, with excellent, friendly and helpful staff and a very good environment for both residents and visitors alike.

My mother was a resident of Kendal Care Home for approximately 10 weeks, until her death in early July. During her stay she gradually became frailer and in need of more care. She was also often confused and anxious about her future. I have nothing but praise for the compassionate, thoughtful, and conscientious way in which she was treated by the staff of the home. Her needs weren't just met, they were anticipated. She was the grateful recipient of many small acts of kindness, freely given, which were above and beyond the call of duty. I felt reassured that she was safe and well looked after and will always be thankful for the enormous sensitivity shown to Mum. This made a huge and positive difference in her final weeks. Thank you.

Mum had at least four favourite carers but one in particular. She was able to have a laugh and a joke with them which she loved and they in turn loved it also. Thank you with all my heart. I will never forget you!

This is a lovely place to be in.

It was disappointing later to observe that the dining room on the lower floor was immaculate.

Having attended two events in June (BBQ and afternoon tea) I want to express my thanks and appreciation to all the staff at Kendal Care Home for their attentiveness and patience shown to all the residents. Staff seem to know everyone by first name and always have a smile and a greeting. Nothing is too much trouble. Keep up the great work, my mind is comforted knowing my family is cared for in such a wonderful place.

Lovely place, I always get a warm welcome when I visit.

My husband was resident in the nursing unit for just over two years due to having dementia and then suffering a stroke. His care was excellent and the staff very caring with him and the whole family. We felt lucky that he was able to be cared for in Kendal. He was admitted at a very difficult time during lockdown but the staff did their best to help him settle in and keep in touch with the family

My mum has been receiving nursing care at Kendal Care Home since January. All the staff are very friendly and helpful, and very kind to my mum. She received a warm welcome when she arrived. Her room is a good size and she has a television which she likes to watch. I am very pleased with the quality of care she is receiving. There is access also to a nurse practitioner from the local doctor's practice once a week.

When it was decided that my wife had to be in a home, we looked around several. We contacted Kendal Care Home and got an immediate meeting. We found them friendly and professional. This has been mirrored in all aspects in the running and welfare of the home. The staff are very caring and always happy to help, no matter what.

How things have changed since Kendal Care, it is much more open with plenty of space to walk around, the rooms are of a good size and all the staff are excellent. She has made many friends and has settled in extremely well, the home feels very warm and welcoming.

Head of the establishment the care manger is doing an excellent job his one-to-one talk at the start was very good and professional.

All staff are most helpful and polite. I'm kept updated on any problems with my wife ie: needing medical attention and can visit her at any time.

We have two family members currently in the home, receiving residential care starting in the last few months and dementia care over the last 2 years, different but challenging care needs. The management together with the caring and professional staff, provide an excellent level of care with both compassion and support for not only residents but family members. There is always a warm welcome from the moment you arrive and this carries on throughout the home from all staff, nothing is ever too much trouble. Everywhere is clean, bright and airy. The rooms and communal areas are welcoming and spacious the dining areas are always beautifully laid out and the food is always well presented with varied choice of menu. There are lots of garden areas to sit or walk around, when you visit and planned activities for those residents who wish to take part. We thank everyone at the home for their continued care and compassion.
