Lovely care for my husband, the care assistants are kind, understanding, and listen to him. He enthuses about the food and refreshments all the time. He is kept clean with washes and clean clothes. My hat off to them he would not shower for weeks at home. His room is clean and warm. Management has
said to advise any problems on every occasion we attend, we have not had any issues.

My mother lives in the home and the care and patience of the staff with her has been absolutely brilliant. My mother has complicated dementia needs, yet the staff have been so accommodating and they remain calm at all times, which I am so grateful for. The care team and managers keep me updated at all
times of any significant changes to my mother's medical condition and they have made such efforts behind the scenes in moving my mother's care needs through the NHS and thereby speeding up her medical diagnoses. Thank you to all those at Lobswood House.

My father spent 6 wonderful months under the amazing care delivered by the Lobswood House team.
During his time at Lobswood, he would tell me how happy he was and how lovely all the staff were. He really wanted for nothing.
Nothing was ever too much trouble!
Every member of the team went above
and beyond they even took the trouble to make us tea and coffee each time we visited.
His care and needs were their priority, the staff would always keep me up to date on his health if things changed I was confident and very comfortable we had made the right choice with Lobswood.
If there was an olympics for care homes, team Lobswood would be my gold choice every time
Thank you for everything you gave him your best and I will forever be grateful.

from Lewis F (Son of Resident) published on 23 September 2024
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

I feel it is so important to acknowledge good care for those of us working full time and unable to care for family members at home. My mum was at her previous care for just under 3 years but as her dementia increased and they served us notice advising we needed to find a home better equipped to care
for her needs.
After my mum moving from 3 homes in the space of 10 days we were worried that Kensington Lodge would also declare they could not cope with my mum. I can't begin to tell you how relieved we were that this was the best move and we only wish this had been our first choice all those years ago. I have witnessed the staff being patient and caring with my mum.
I highly recommend Kensington Lodge as a small home, with staff trained to care and love the residents as much as we the family members do. Thank you to all the staff.

Kensington Lodge

from Cathryn F (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 19 September 2024
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Yesterday I attended a meeting at Kensington Lodge for the family members of the residents. The manager and deputy manager provided thorough and informative updates and it was evident that the residents are at the heart of everything they do and their development plan. The meeting welcomed input from
the family members and we had a really rich discussion that was so positive and had a purpose and outcome behind it for bringing positive change.
Kensington Lodge is truly a breath of fresh air for our family after a negative end experience at her former home and in caring for my mother in law so well, this in turn has impacted our well-being by not worrying and having the guilt that we were unable for her to live with us.
I 100% endorse this care home for anyone currently needing to find a care home for their loved one and wish to acknowledge and thank all the staff for their compassion.

On the 10th of August, my sister visited her husband, who is a resident of Kensington Lodge, I was there as well. As she has Multiple sclerosis (MS) and is in a wheelchair she needed to be hoisted into her second wheelchair for comfort. The staff were welcoming and helpful and nothing was too much trouble.
There was such a happy atmosphere in a very clean environment. His room is light and airy and looked very comfortable. My sister enjoyed her visit very much especially as it was her 89th birthday. A big thank you to all the staff.

I think the care and personal attention is very good. There are no bad smells that I've found in other care homes and cleanliness is good. It's not the poshest looking interiors but it is adequate. The outside space could be better but most elderly don't seem to want to be outside regardless of the
weather, my mum always stays in. Overall, I am very happy with this care home.

Once again my pleasure and privilege to supportively comment on the all-around excellence of Kensington Lodge. Besides the wholly reliable daily performance of the staff and management, the extra mile they went in celebrating my brother-in-law's birthday was exemplary. I'm so pleased he enjoys the attention
of such lovely people to whom nothing is too much trouble at any time. Thank you one and all at Kensington.

This care home is excellent in every way. My brother has been extremely poorly and the staff have cared for him with great kindness and compassion. They had an open day for families which I attended and what a joyous day it was. The staff produced a range of excellent and different and exciting dishes
for everyone to enjoy. There was music and dancing. All the time while this was going on staff kept a check on my brother making sure he was comfortable. An excellent care home with excellent staff and management.

My mother lives in the home, and I couldn't be happier with the service and care my mum receives on a daily basis.
My mum can choose what activities she would like to be involved in (but she is always encouraged if she doesn't feel like it that day)
My mother's room is very accessible for her needs,
and she can make the room as homely as she would like it to be (with personal belongings).

I cannot speak highly enough of all the staff at Knightswood, everybody is very friendly, and accommodating and nothing is too much trouble. My dad moved in June 2023 and is very happy with everything. I feel more secure knowing that Dad is looked after 24/7 by a wonderful team. The house is set in
lovely surroundings with large gardens. Staff organise events for the residents, singers, exercise classes etc. I would like to personally thank everybody at Knightswood, couldn't ask for better.

Lobswood House

from Laura B (Stepdaughter of Resident) published on 31 July 2024
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

My stepfather, aged 97, was moved to Lobswood after an unsatisfactory stay at another care home. We were all anxious, as he was so unwell with many health conditions and was so unhappy at the previous home. However, the manager was very reassuring and he went on to receive the best care possible.
My
stepfather was treated with kindness and dignity. He was kept clean, fed and hydrated, and regularly monitored for his Diabetes and pain, as he had several long-term health conditions and was at end of life. He had a lovely, spacious room, which was kept clean and fresh. They were also kind and professional towards their other residents, many of whom had dementia. The atmosphere was like a family home.
My stepfather sadly passed away in April and the manager and deputy manager attended my stepfather's funeral, which meant a lot to us. They kept in touch with Mum, who is attending an Elvis evening next Saturday. We can't rate Lobswood highly enough.
