Your father was a wonderful character, very stoic and gracious at the end of his life, and a pleasure to care for. Thank you for being available and responding to our team and for your excellent feedback.

Thank you for your review. I am sorry you had some concerns. I did think that you brought a commode from home rather than use ours. Commodes are with a resident for the duration of their stay and sanitised, slings are allocated to each resident and laundered. The two hoists we have on each floor are shared and cleaned after use. Unless in use or faulty, a hoist from another floor would not normally be used. However, I appreciate this is your reported experience and perhaps you would like to contact me with further information. Your mother was a pleasure to get to know and provide a service for, and we are all grateful for your considerable support.

It was with great pleasure that the team were able to care for your mother and yourselves at the end and provide a peaceful and comfortable departure. All the fond memories of your mother will remain with us. Your mother's stay was made more pleasurable by having a family who have given a lot to the home in terms of time to listen, and acts of kindness to other residents and families, as well as helpful suggestions and feedback to improve. I look forward to your future visits.

It has been a great pleasure to read your review and know that as a family you experienced a near-perfect day. It is always a wonderful thing for colleagues to see residents and their families getting the most out of their time together. It was very evident, as you were leaving, that your sister looked relaxed and content with her day. I do hope we can provide a similar experience on your next visit.

Thank you for taking the time to review Kenbrook. Your grandfather had a lovely afternoon celebrating with family and certainly enjoyed his 80th Birthday cake.

Thank you for your wonderful review. It was hugely rewarding and a great privilege to have a celebration in honour of your mother’s 20 years residing in Kenbrook. Your mother is a remarkable woman, enduring her own health needs but never forgetting words of love and kindness to the staff who care for her. The staff have been duly thanked for their work.

Thank you for your wonderful review. It is a great sense of achievement to see this level of satisfaction with your mum’s care. It is a pleasure to care for someone so enchanting and full of spirit, and very much part of our Kenbrook family. It is also a benefit to have such an engaged family who visit whenever they can.

Your father has such an indomitable spirit and has been a stalwart visitor of your mother, even before his admission, and likewise, your mother’s resilience has been something we have all learnt from; they are certainly a big part of Kenbrook. It is pleasing to see that your parent’s care is recognised as being of a high standard. Having such a caring and engaged family is much appreciated, and thank you for your review.

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.829) out of 10 for Kenbrook is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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:
a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.
The Average Rating of 4.829 for Kenbrook is calculated as follows: ( (144 Excellents x 5) + (24 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 170 Ratings = 4.829
b) 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kenbrook is based on 15 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:
The 5 points available are broken down as follows:
i) 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
ii) 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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 15 Positive reviews. Points = 1
When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
