Absolutely lovely place & staff, not cheap but you get what you pay for would recommend in a second. I actually worked on the extension in the 1980's when it became a care home. Looking forward to my mum being able to enjoy the garden in the summer.

Reply from Amelia James, Supporting Our Homes at Kenilworth Manor Nursing Home

That's such a wonderful connection to have with the home-how special that you were involved in its transformation back in the 1980s! We're so pleased to hear you've had a positive experience, and we truly appreciate your kind words about the team. We hope your mum enjoys many relaxing moments in the garden this summer. Thank you for your recommendation

Compassionate, kind and caring environment. Plenty of well-trained dedicated staff who enjoy looking after people. A relaxed family approach where the residents' needs are first and foremost. A quiet location with gardens and plenty of parking.
Careful recording of food, liquid and medication done
discreetly. Medication is supervised so that no doses are left behind. Residents are thanked for taking their necessary medication.
High quality food is cooked by chefs on the premises and alternative dishes are offered when requested. Residents asked about the dishes they would like to see on the menu. Help with feeding is always at hand.
Plenty of help with personal care. Daily programme of activities from quizzes, movement to music and animal therapy with two lovely activity coordinators available all day.

The setting provides care for my Mother who is suffering from Parkinson's and has mobility issues. Staff are friendly, caring, and respectful and try to make her as comfortable as possible. The setting has a homely and welcoming atmosphere. The staff who provide activities for the residents also go
out of their way to help.

My Mother went into Kenilworth Manor as she could no longer remain at home. She has been there for 14 months. In that time she has been treated with extreme care and dignity. The staff are always friendly and go above and beyond to ensure she is well cared for and happy.
All of the team without exception
are very approachable and accommodating.
Visitors are always made to feel very welcome.

Mum was at The Manor for just over a year. It seems like a lovely hotel on the surface but there’s serious caring/nursing going on behind. Mum especially enjoyed the food; many different kinds of fish, desserts like crumble, crème caramel, fruit jellies. Lots of choices. A great staff team; manager,
nurses, carers, admin, catering, activities people, maintenance and housekeeping, in the day and at night. I felt at home and able to speak to the manager/nurses about any issues. I’d take Mum out and we’d sit in the beautiful garden. Activities at all times; crosswords, quizzes, crafts, entertainers, garden party and fete. Especially impressed by the way staff adapted to changing needs as Mum deteriorated. Struggling to eat meant food could be puréed and someone would come and help. Changing her room’s layout, adding extras to the bed to keep her safe and comfortable. More nursing. Pairs of carers. Whatever needed to be as comfy as possible. So glad she died in her own room, with people she knew and not in hospital.

My mother lived here following a stroke and for the last year my father too. It is a wonderful place, very well run and managed and has super kind supportive staff. The quality of care runs through everything from management through to caring staff, cooks, housekeepers - everyone. Both my parents had
quite different needs and both were very happy and content from the time they moved into Kenilworth Manor we didn’t have to worry about them knowing they were safe and happy and we visit all the time. Great care is given to develop a community with activities and events families join in with. The nursing staff supports with medical needs and the kitchen provides what can only be described as restaurant-quality food always willing to accommodate choices. A great place to live.

Reply from Huw James, Director at Kenilworth Manor Nursing Home

Thank you for your review. We value all feedback, as this helps us to improve the service we provide. We appreciate your positive comments regarding our home and team, who work hard to deliver high standards of quality care. We will pass on your feedback to the team.

My mother has been in Kenilworth Manor for just over three years. Her own father was in the home many, many years ago, and there are still a few of the same staff working there! All the staff are kind, attentive and patient. We are kept informed about Mum's general well-being and advised about any changes,
both physically and mentally.

As a friend of a resident, I have found that the staff are lovely, kind and caring, creating a family-style atmosphere.
Management have done an excellent job in avoiding COVID infections.
The food is superb, of restaurant quality. This is important for people whose life is restricted.
Visitors are
welcome, and made to feel at home.
The activities coordinator has done an excellent job in maintaining a good atmosphere, despite COVID restrictions, and in encouraging the residents to engage with each other.
Some of the bedrooms could do with redecoration, but are kept clean, warm and comfortable.

Kenilworth Manor has a warm, welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Staff are caring and attentive and treat residents with kindness and respect. Food is excellent and individual dietary needs are well-catered for. A weekly schedule of activities is available for residents. Staff have also organised events
to include relatives, and we have appreciated being invited to a Christmas afternoon tea, a Jubilee afternoon tea and a Falconry display.

My wife has been a resident here for almost three years and I have joined her in a double room for the past two years. My wife requires specialist nursing care and I feel complete confidence in the way this care is delivered. She is treated with affection as well as professional skill. The food is excellent
in quality and variety and my wife's special dietary needs are unfailingly attended to.
We both enjoy the real sense of community here, supported by an excellent activities programme, thoughtfully adapted to different preferences and abilities. Our visitors are always made to feel welcome and it is a pleasure to receive them here, in our room or in the attractive garden.
I am confident that where problems arise or we have special requests, the management will do everything possible to resolve or meet them.

This is a first-rate nursing home. In the last 2 years, I have NEVER heard or seen anything which makes me worried about my mother-in-law. She is looked after with compassion and good humour too. The setting is very peaceful and the gardens are well maintained. Flowers are also provided inside too.
During lockdown, the staff carefully and professionally protected the residents to the best of their ability. I would definitely recommend this nursing home.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

My father was at Kenilworth Manor for 2 years. The carers were very kind and got to know him well with all his little idiosyncrasies! The nurses were attentive. The chef's excellent. My only concern is the poor administration, the home are efficient in setting up your contract and prompt about taking
the monies each month (in advance of care being received). However. when it comes to final settlements there is a stonewall from the administrator, manager and finance at head office. Sadly my father passed away in September 2019. We are still waiting for final settlement of our account with Kenilworth Manor. This is despite numerous phone calls to the manager, contact with head office via phone and email and raising a complaint, which has never been answered. Finally, in February 2020 we were advised of the monies owed, but now in March are still waiting for a cheque to be sent which is needed for probate. Sad and an emotionally draining experience.

Reply from Philip Dutton, Director at Kenilworth Manor Nursing Home

Thank you for your review. Whilst I am pleased that you were happy with the care your father received whilst he was with us I am disappointed that we have not achieved the same high standards with our administration. I have looked into and settlement has now been made.

My mother-in-law is 91 and has been in the home for 14 years. Throughout this time, the care she has received has been excellent. Being physically incapable of doing anything for herself, she has constantly depended on the care and support of the carers which have sustained her beyond her life expectancy.
The food is of a very high quality. Considerable thought is given to the activities and entertainments which are varied and generally able to be enjoyed by my mother-in-law despite her physical disabilities. The 19th-century building has character and is set in very attractive grounds which the residents can enjoy. The homely atmosphere of the home is experienced as soon as you enter the home.

Current Review Score: 9.3 (9.343)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.3 (9.343) out of 10 for Kenilworth Manor Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 6 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.861 for Kenilworth Manor Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (62 Excellents x 5) + (10 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 72 Ratings = 4.861

  • 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 4.482 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Kenilworth Manor Nursing Home is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8. 6 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.8 = 0.882

  • 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.
