Realising your loved one can no longer live independently in their own home is a harsh reality and so many emotions are laid bare for all. There are anxieties and questions, doubts and tears. So, to be welcomed into Kingfishers, filled with positivity and friendly faces, staff who are never too busy
to listen, and who treat you and your love one with kindness and respect, has been honestly just such a relief. Mum has a beautifully light appointed room, which is always spotlessly clean, and a list of relatable activities should she wish to leave the comfort of it. Family who have visited have nothing but praise either. Thank you!

The care my relative received was outstanding from my first contact with the home to the exceptional care delivered until the end. The attention to detail, the delicious varied menu, the beautiful surroundings both inside and out. The kindness and personal centred support, treating my relative with
dignity and respect at all times. I would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone looking for care for a loved one.

A very welcome and caring friendly atmosphere and very high standard kept throughout the home regarding what your positions are. Plenty of activities to keep their minds and bodies active. And also make family members very welcome

The care and compassion shown by the entire team at Kingfishers is nothing short of outstanding. My mother was treated with kindness during the 6 years she spent in the home. My sister and I also grew to love the staff who we got to know well over the years. Cannot recommend highly enough; simply
wonderful!

I cannot rate Kingfishers highly enough. The care my mother received in all 6 years of her stay here was second to none. From manager, nursing staff, carers, admins, companions, my mother was treated with kindness and respect. I live overseas so I was sad not to visit more often, but the staff at
Kingfishers made her and myself feel like family. In death she and myself were treated with utmost care and respect. A definite home away from home.

From the first contact moment, I was extremely happy with all aspects of my mother's short term care. Every member of staff is super friendly and caring and I felt she was in a happy environment.

I have been so comfortable and safe here for my ten-day respite. You have given me back my confidence as I go home after my fall and stay in hospital.
The food was excellent - especially the soups in the evening. Also, all the carers & staff, THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH.

I have been here for four weeks and the home, staff, food and cleanliness is excellent. Everyone most welcomes my family and friends when they visit and are very impressed with everything and the care and attention that I receive. My family join me for lunch somdays and the food is excellent.

I cannot praise Kingfisher's Nursing Home enough, they are the kindest most loving group of people you could wish to meet. My husband was a resident for a short while before he passed away but the care was wonderful. Since he died they have been my lifeline, I have been welcomed back to do some
gardening and often sit on the patio with many happy residents enjoying the sun and cake. Everyone there are so happy is is a pleasure to walk through the door. Outstanding they are. I cannot recommend the home enough.

My mother in law resided at Kingfishers receiving palliative care for the final month of her life.
Her care was thorough and the staff genuinely cared about her and her needs which gave us a lot of comfort at a very difficult time.

The Kingfisher answers all my needs. I am 94 and am very grateful for the kindness and help I get from all the staff. I feel safe and happy. There is always some activity going on morning and afternoon, should I want it. Also the wonderful mini bus, the good food and lovely gardens. Thank you
Kingfisher.

From the first time I visited Kingfishers to view for a very dear friend I was greeted with lovely smiley faces from everyone I met. Very impressed with everything I saw. I am very pleased with the care received.
14 March 2024
I have been well looked after by a very friendly, kind and caring team. Everyone has been so cheerful, always smiling. They have helped and encouraged my recovery.
The food has been excellent - a wide choice of menu and well presented. Thank you everyone.

The welcome at the home was excellent. The resident settled in within just two weeks and feels the experience is on par with a hotel. He enjoys the social aspect of the home and the laughter experienced adds to the relaxed atmosphere. Any concerns/issues related around our lack of understanding and
the staff learning his specific needs, feedback was readily received and acted upon. As ever, there are some opportunities for improvement but I am confident the management will embrace constructive feedback.

Enjoyed very much the carnival and procession and also the school carol service was lovely and well attended. The staff are very respectful friendly and encouraging. I would certainly recommend the home to others.

We brought my sister-in-law to Kingfishers from Cornwall in November 2022, due to her worsening medical problems. We certainly chose the best place. Her care has been exemplary. Thank you so much to the manager and her team for making her time with them so enjoyable. Even though she was
wheelchair-bound, she was encouraged to join in the many activities and special occasions organised and she participated with enthusiasm. We had planned to give this review on her first anniversary as a resident, but sadly she passed away all too soon. It does not alter the fact, however, that we wholeheartedly recommend Kingfishers for the top-class, all-round care they provide.

I like the musical entertainment. I like the activities. There is always something going on and the staff make it fun. I love musical shows and enjoy taking part in the choir.
