Review from Kelly C (Resident) published on 19 August 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My family & I wanted to fulfil my dream of going to watch the British super bikes. After I had my stroke I'd completely written off ever going again. My brother in law said 'let's make it happen'! He got the BSB calendar up to find a meeting at Brands Hatch, the end of the month. We were already at
the start. We looked at WAV hire, but it was too expensive! He looked at a price for a taxi. All hope was fading away. I suggested we went by train. My brother in law said it could be an option, but the track is in the middle of nowhere, the stations are miles away. We had exhausted all options, when I remembered that the home had a WAV. I told my brother in law that before we gave up all hope, I would email (due to the stroke, I physically can't speak) and ask if we could borrow it. We didn't have anything to lose. The worst they could do was say 'no'. To my surprise, it was ok. I got it insured and we were off. I was so grateful. Thanks to this home, dreams really do come true.

My brother has been at Kingston Rehab for months now. When discharged from hospital, he was in a sorry state both physically and mentally. Within a few weeks at Kingston Rehab he made significant progress in both aspects. It is a great relief to us, his family, knowing that he is safe, secure and is
being well looked after by excellent staff and management. Only issue I can think of is that it can be difficult to get through on the phone to Kingston Rehab in order to get updates on his condition, as my brother is unable to speak.
Reply from Lesley Wickens, Manager at Kingston Rehabilitation Centre

Thank you for your kind words. I will share with the team.I have noted your comment that it can be difficult getting through to the Home for updates. We are looking into how we can improve this.

Thank God my relationship with the rehab centre has miraculously changed for the better and I am most grateful that I am at last being treated with dignity and respect - I feel that I am being listened to and this has reduced my stress and anxiety. Please keep me informed about my wife's health and
welfare and kindly contact me immediately if any changes occur. The challenge is family relationships and meeting the faith aspirations of the husband with his wife's family. Thank you very much indeed for listening and supporting me.

Kingston Rehabilitation Centre truly goes above and beyond to make residents feel at home. The staff take time to understand each client and their families, listening closely to their needs to provide personalised care that really makes a difference. Every client is treated with dignity and respect.
The on-site amenities, like the physio and film room, enhance clients' well-being and every space-whether it's a shared area or a private room-is kept spotless and inviting. Beyond providing excellent care, the team focuses on making each day enjoyable. No matter how busy things get, they're always willing to pause for a chat or organise fun activities like games and arts and crafts. This dedication to creating a vibrant community is something the residents often praise. It's clear that the staff genuinely care about each client's comfort, happiness, and overall well-being.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My partner stayed here for nine weeks after breaking his left femur. We really enjoyed the time we spent there. The staff especially the carers were brilliant as were the physio and occupational therapists. The room was very comfortable and quiet with a lovely view of the garden. This was just what
he needed after a week in an NHS ward following his operation. His mobility has improved vastly from when he first arrived. He is taking much positivity from this now that he has returned home.

Some weeks ago I broke my left femur and spent some weeks in hospital. I then came here for almost two weeks and have had great care that was both therapeutic from physio nurses and physical care provided from all household staff.

Review from M G (Mother of Resident) published on 20 June 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My daughter arrived to Kingston Rehabilitation Centre November 2022 with complicated brain injuries. She was given 1.1 care with one member of care for two weeks, and due to this managed to adapt and most importantly feel safe. Within the last 18 months my daughter has achieved and exceeded her rehabilitation
and mental health goals. The management support is open and the care from staff on all levels is extremely personable. My only slight issue is staff turnover within rehabilitation team, however staff re employed are always professional and caring. As a parent in an extremely vulnerable position I and my husband feel extremely blessed with the care KRC has given our daughter and most importantly appreciate the family environment KRC have. The nursing team are wonderful as are the care staff highly qualified. One irritation is that the GP is not always efficient.

Thank you so much for the lovely review. I will pass your feedback on to our team. It has been a pleasure and an honour to care for your daughter, and to witness her exceeding her goals. It has been a long journey for her and she should be very proud of what she has managed to achieve during her stay with us.

I found the staff amazing, always, and my walking came along so well when I was there. The work they did on my stair walking in particular made it so easy to transition to life at home. The physio team and their assistants were first class, look forward to seeing them all again.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Kingston Rehabilitation Centre over the April period and the progress that I was able to make both mentally and physically I couldn't have done without the amazing team. All of the staff there were absolutely amazing and beyond welcoming they were all willing
to help with any questions I had or even to take 10 minutes from their busy day to just have a chat and make me feel at home.
I can't stress enough how much of a benefit it was to me to stay at a place like here. I was able to learn so much and they truly set you up with all the knowledge to head home and continue on your recovery.
Big thank you to all the staff, I couldn't recommend this place enough.

Some of the staff are great, friendly, happy to help, have great interaction with the people who are residing there and seem to enjoy what they are doing.
Others, however, although they may be polite and friendly it seems like they don’t want to be there and when asking them to help seems as if it’s
an inconvenience.
Needs improvements in certain areas.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was extremely happy with the friendliness and welcome I received during my stay, from the cleaners to the nurses, from the physios to the carers, everyone was extremely nice. It felt comfortable having my room cleaned and maintained daily, I really appreciated this.
I really enjoyed the salmon with
hollandaise sauce dish, and desserts throughout the week, but would've liked to have had a bit more variety in the food offerings. I found the kitchen staff were on hand to accommodate as best they could. The option to order a bigger variety of snacks and drinks after kitchen opening hours would've been helpful.
Also, with my injuries, a more supportive mattress would've been better during my stay. Overall, I'm very pleased with the treatment and hospitality I had throughout. Thanks to all who were a part of my stay!

I was apprehensive when I left hospital and was transferred to Kingston Rehabilitation Centre but from day one I was treated with patience and kindness from all the staff. The physios and occupational therapists were brilliant and really helped me progress with my recovery. My experience was a positive
one.
I return to the centre once a week for hydrotherapy and always receive a warm welcome from the staff which is lovely. I would recommend the centre to anyone.

Review from Tina C (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 26 November 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother-in-law spent 3 weeks in the Kingston Rehabilitation Centre after a compression fracture - she received excellent care and had a very positive experience.
The team are lovely and very caring, the managers are excellent and went above and beyond to help her both while she was in the centre
and following discharge back home.
She was initially upset at having to leave her own home but the team dealt with this beautifully.
She didn't engage in group activities for the first 2 weeks and preferred to eat alone but this wasn't for lack of encouragement from the team.
She had daily physio which was excellent in restoring her mobility and confidence - occupational therapy input was also very helpful, including a home assessment.
She needed to attend the leg ulcer clinic while there and one of the centre's nurses went with her - this was very helpful.
Room facilities are great and meals OK - more brown bread and fresh fruit would have been good, but she loved the chocolate desserts!
Thanks for your excellent care!
Reply from Rebecca Page, Regional Manager at Kingston Rehabilitation Centre

Thank you for your lovely feedback, it was an absolute pleasure to support your mother-in-law during her stay here and beyond. I will share your kind words with the team who cared for her.
I also note your points around the fresh fruit; I am very pleased she enjoyed the choccie puddings!
Very best wishes from all the team at Kingston Rehab

I would like to say how caring and professional all the staff are from management, nurses, carers to the cleaning and support staff. Everyone is encouraging, friendly and all know your name.

Current Review Score: 9.4 (9.374)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.4 (9.374) out of 10 for Kingston Rehabilitation Centre is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 9 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.8 out of 5 from 8 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 4.574 for Kingston Rehabilitation Centre is calculated as follows: ( (74 Excellents x 5) + (12 Goods x 4) + (14 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 101 Ratings = 4.574
  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 4.8 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kingston Rehabilitation Centre is based on 8 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 = 3.8
    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 36 registered maximum number of service users is 7.2, which has been reached with 8 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.
