I was dreading my friend going into the care sector. I needn't have worried, Kitwood House goes over and above my expectations. The staff treat the residents with the respect and dignity they deserve. Staff are very friendly and helpful, even when they are very busy. Hospitality, chef and care staff always have a smile for you. It's obvious to me that the staff are really committed to their vocation. Not forgetting the receptionists.

The planning and execution of its building has obviously incorporated the latest developments in care for patients. The dignity of its residents is a priority and the assistants are obviously dedicated to the well-being of their charges.

The manager is excellent, very professional and caring. On visits I observe her interacting in a genuine and caring manner with all residents. Always replies to emails. The facilities are beautiful, like a really nice hotel. Food is very good and varied. Dad had to go on a pureed diet which they made as appetising as possible. En-suite rooms are beautiful. The nurses are lovely.
Our priority is to make sure our residents are well looked after and cared for and enjoy the environment, facilitles and meals that are offered.
When I first saw Kitwood I was amazed that a care home could look so wonderful. So I was overjoyed when my wife was placed in the home. I soon realised that although the home looks amazing the main thing was how my wife was looked after. I needn't have worried, my wife has complex dementia issues...
When I first saw Kitwood I was amazed that a care home could look so wonderful. So I was overjoyed when my wife was placed in the home. I soon realised that although the home looks amazing the main thing was how my wife was looked after. I needn't have worried, my wife has complex dementia issues and the staff go out of their way to understand her needs and respond accordingly. I visit my wife nearly every day and all the staff are always warm and friendly. This is a wonderful home and I would highly recommend!
We do pride ourselves on the beautiful environment, as you have said it is very important that the care is as excellent as the environment. The staff are extremely passionate and caring and this is most important.
Thank you again the staff will be delighted with your kind words.
