"My father (96) has been residing in Kenwyn for nearly nine months. I can say that I can pop in at any time and find he is well cared for, and when I leave, I am confident and couldn't do better for his care - I think that's it."

"Barchester Kenwyn Care Home is a wonderful place for my mother. She is well cared for and everyone from the care team to management is wonderful and kind. Mum likes her room, food and being out in the large garden. Everyone is patient with the residents and very helpful."

"My father, who is 97, has been a resident at Kenwyn for just over 9 months and both his health and wellbeing have improved; I attribute this to the excellent support and encouragement that he receives. The nursing staff are first class, professional, compassionate, and caring. Dad is treated with dignity and respect at all times. In walking along the corridor, it is notable how each member of staff will greet a resident by name, making time to talk to them and make them feel special. The dining room with its semi-formal atmosphere and good food encourages Dad to chat and be sociable, eating three meals a day, very different to eating alone at home. With so much space at Kenwyn there are rooms and outside spaces where family and friends can sit with residents; the coffee and cakes, available at all times, help to reinforce the home-from-home feeling. As a regular visitor, I am made to feel not only welcome but part of the life of the care home, something that I value greatly."

"I have been a resident here for almost a year. I am looked after and I like the staff. I enjoy most of the food, but I am a bit fussy! I enjoyed the curry recently and I like any sponge pudding! I liked a trip to the salon and am looking forward to going again, the hairdresser did exactly what I asked for with my colours."

"My husband is at Kenwyn and he is very happy here as well as well cared for. The food is nice and the staff are caring. I visit every day apart from Sunday and I am made to feel very welcome. And I love the cake and croissants each day. The staff are all kind and welcoming and I have never had any problems."

"As far as I am concerned, Kenwyn is top-class. Nothing is too much trouble, the staff are amazing and incredibly helpful. When we first arrived I was greeted by a member of staff who is the home services advisor, she was so lovely and caring and compassionate. She went way beyond her duty to make sure everything was up to scratch. They have looked after my husband so well and he has settled in much better than I anticipated. I would like to say a massive thank you to all the staff for everything that they do."

"As a family we have been very happy with the care our father had received since his stroke in November. All the staff are friendly, caring and professional in their care for Dad and he is definitely in the right place for his care and safety. Staff are always willing to help like today when I couldn’t get a taxi arranged due to school pickups, the manager drove us in the minibus to an audiologist appointment and ensured Dad arrived safely in time for his appointment. The staff take responsibility for the care and support and Dad is very happy and cared for at Barchester Kenwyn."

"I would like to say a very big thank you to all at Kenwyn Care Home who provided excellent care for my Father over the last 9 months of his life. He was looked after by their memory Lane/Tresco team at a time in my father's life when his care was very complex and demanding. The home is clean, well-presented, friendly and well-staffed. It was wonderful to see how caring the staff were whilst also at the same time able to provide expert nursing care for his dementia. I am very grateful for the service provided which allowed me to sleep at night knowing he was being looked after so well. Thank you."

"I recently visited Kenwyn care Home and was met by a lovely manager. I was offered a drink and a slice of Victoria sponge made by the chef that morning, it was delicious. The manager took the time to show me around the home and answered all my questions. I felt completely at ease. The staff who saw me all took the time to say hello. Thank you to the manager time you were a professional to the core, and you and your team made me so very welcome."

"My father has just been admitted. Our experience from the initial enquiry phone call through to his admission and welcome has been absolutely top rate. The efficiency, kindness and genuine interest in Dad and us as a family warmed our hearts. Last night, his first at Kenwyn, he told me he was pleased and happy, what more can one ask than to know Dad is safe, secure and satisfied. Thank you to all involved."

"My Mother came to this home in February. I live out of the county it was hard but the Service Advisor talked me through the process and put my mind at ease. Since she has been admitted mum has settled well and enjoying her meals and is still close to her old home in Cornwall, where her friends are. Living far away is hard but the staff let me do virtual visits, talking to my mum on video calls. She has never been one for technology but the staff support her. My wife and I are reassured she is cared for and not alone anymore. Thank you"

"What a Great team the staff at Kenwyn are. My mother who is in the Dementia unit had her birthday today and they put on a lovely display of balloons, banners and made a special cake for mum as she can only really eat pureed food so it was lovely to see they went out of their way to make it special. I honestly cannot thank the staff for all they do for my mum and to mum they are her family and that means the world to me. People are very quick to judge carers and nurses and just presume everything should be done perfectly but do they realise what actually goes into caring especially with very demanding patients who require specialised help. We as relatives obviously want the very best care and it is very easy for us to say your not doing this or that right but I know if I spent a few days actually inside the home doing the work they do opinions and expectations would change. They deserve our praise so please be nice relatives."

"Just returned from a fruitless visit to see my sister who is end of Life at Kenwyn Care Home. Nowhere on the write up about Kenwyn do they advise friends or families not to visit as they have an outbreak of Covid at the moment. At the door, we were told they have been closed already a few days. Why was this not put on their site to prevent worthless visits? Sometimes family travelling many miles to get here."

"During regular visits, I have got to know many staff members at Kenwyn. The reception team are warm, friendly and supportive. I have nothing but praise and admiration for the nurses and carers who work closely with the residents. I admire and commend their fortitude and cheerful, unfaltering dedication to their work, dealing as they do with a multitude of complex cases. Given that I never planned for my husband to require 24-hour care, he could not be in a better place."

"My aunt has resided in the home for 6 months when she became too frail to be at home and needed additional support. The home is beautiful and my aunt says it feels like a home from home for her. She has a better social life with other residents than she did when she was at home. Making friends and doing activities her mental wellbeing is the best it's been for years and her physical health is being supported. She enjoys her meals and has gained weight. The staff are lovely and so supportive and keep me informed as to her next of kin along the way. This was the best move for my aunt and she is blooming again in Kenwyn."

"The manager and her team have created a kind, compassionate and caring environment at Kenwyn. Our aunt and uncle have been treated with genuine care and it has been a real comfort to us, knowing that they are safe. The medical care that they receive is comprehensive and the staff on both Tresco and Trelissick have been amazingly kind and caring. I have utter confidence in Kenwyn and the staff there; their professionalism means that we don’t need to worry, even during a very difficult time for the family."

I feel so reassured after each visit that she is in the best place possible with the condition she has. Most of all she is happy and enjoying time with the staff on the ward who make the most of every day for my wife. It is also a great comfort to my 3 children and their families who feel exactly the same as me in their praise for the staff and the care home."

"My wife has been a resident for one year. Initially, the care and attention to detail was excellent. However, in the last few months, there has been marked evidence of deteriorating attention to the "charter commitment" given by a Barchester care home. Representation was made to management in this period but little improvement seen. However, since new manager appointed, there is evidence that improvements in care and safety are improving."

"Grandad has been in Kenwyn for three weeks now. He has received 1-1 sessions with the physio who is employed by the home - this is so unusual to have a physio employed in the care home. The chef is great and has taken a lot of special requests regarding Grandad's food. The new manager has spent time discussing Grandad's care. We chose well."

"My relative resides on the Tresco Unit at Kenwyn Care Home. Tresco is the dementia unit and my relative has resided there for 5 years. The nurses and staff have always shown genuine care and support, not only to my loved one but also to myself where there have been times of sadness or change. The catering staff are also an integral part of the team. The food and service is very good. I find that I can approach any member of staff on Tresco, from the nurses to the fantastic care teams and have any concerns dealt with or answered. In all circumstances, I have never felt that I cannot approach anyone that either works on Tresco or in Tresco and speak freely to them all. Everyone is courteous, caring and thoughtful and my loved one and I feel very much part of the Tresco family."

I cannot praise the staff enough they are wonderful. The lady who takes charge of the ward is a beautiful person.

"My friend went to live at Kenwyn Nursing Home to be near to her family in Cornwall. She spent 14 months there before she sadly passed away. Despite her medical condition she was always cheerful. Whenever we spoke on the telephone she often told me how kind and considerate she found the people who cared for her. This was so important to me as I live 300 miles away and could not visit regularly. I have nothing but praise and thanks for the staff at Kenwyn who strived to make her as comfortable as possible and always had time for a friendly chat. I would not hesitate in recommending Kenwyn Nursing Home for their care and commitment to their residents."

"The staff are very caring and have a good rapport with residents and relatives. It would seem that more staff are required. This becomes obvious at meal times when staff are assisting residents who cannot feed themselves. If any resident requires other assistance at this time, i.e. to go to the toilet or any other help, then nobody is available. The resident then becomes quite distressed. Laundry can be a problem at times as items of clothing go missing for long periods. I suggest that regular meetings with management and relatives would be a good idea to sort the problems."

"I have been a resident at Kenwyn Care Home (one of the Barchester Group) and during that time I have noticed the standards have dropped considerably. I am a coeliac and diabetic - I do not always receive suitable food to suit my requirements. Some time ago I was placed on an uncomfortable mattress which resulted in me experiencing very bad backaches. I have now a bariatric mattress which I hope will alleviate my pain. The manageress is most unsympathetic on most wants - never visits patients regularly."

"It was a blessing to me that my dad was cared for at Kenwyn Nursing Home. My dad would always have preferred to remain in his own home, however, Kenwyn, and the care team there made him the most comfortable that I could have imagined him being anywhere, and was like a home from home. The staff at Kenwyn made every effort to ensure my dad enjoyed his time at Kenwyn and cared for him so well. It removed the worry for me as his daughter as I knew that he was receiving such great care. I shall remain eternally grateful for the care, company and love that my dad received from so many of the staff at the home and would not hesitate to recommend anyone looking for a nursing home to select Kenwyn."

Recently, my sister was admitted to hospital with a respiratory infection, two members of the home visited her there. The rooms are large, well decorated and well maintained. My sister often catches the corner in her room with her wheelchair and the maintenance people quickly repair it. My sister is kept occupied by the activities section and on occasion goes out for the day in home's mini-bus. Best of all, my sister is happy and content at Barchester Kenwyn Care Home."

"My husband has been in the home for 2 and a half years and I have to speak on his behalf due to having a brain injury and loss of memory. On the whole, the care is very good. The only criticism I have is on occasions a senior member of staff did not listen to my concerns I had for my husband when he was really poorly. This has now led to our relationship being frosty. This should not be the case."

"Information from NHS slow to filter to Kenwyn therefore a lack of information concerning mum's needs. Due to staff relations not all staff up to speed on Mum's health needs. Observations would suggest some staff shortages at weekends, although all staff are pleasant and relate to mum. An information chart discretely displayed (ie. on back of door) would ensure that correct feeding vessels are used and issued. This has also been noted in the dining room. This chart would also inform her daily routine: We have found the nursing and caring staff lovely. Due to lack of dementia mobility mum needs stimulating and is frustrated with her incapacity in terms of bringing like-minded individuals together socially would be beneficial and stimulating. Great efforts were made at Christmas by the staff."

"My mother is always well cared for and feels comfortable whenever I visit her. I feel she had a good Christmas and is contented. Her room is looking a little shabby now and needs decoration and updated with a wet room, hopefully will be done in the near future, but I understand the foyer and corridors are being decorated first. I feel residents rooms should be updated as first priority as that is where my mother spends her life and would have a greater benefit to her."

"My father has been in Kenwyn for 18 months following a stroke. He has gradually deteriorated mentally and physically, but through no fault of the home. They have kept him well fed, warm, clean and tidy whilst keeping him entertained within his limits of attention. Early in his stay he was able to go on trips and was regularly taken to church. In a recent illness they organised medical care and kept us informed of progress (as we were abroad)."

"From my perspective the locations and the grounds are excellent, the fact that the home was purpose built has many positive implications. I applaude and avail myself of the open house visiting policy. This for me is very important, I visit frequently as do friends. My experiences are limited to reception and Treso dementia ward where there is a great family atmosphere which I try to encourage. The nursing staff are most helpful and also facilitate the medical care with dedicated professionalism. The carers are very competent, show extreme patience at times, often go beyond the call of duty, they are the salt of the earth. We would miss them so if they moved on."

"The review was helpful and constructive. The review was carried out systematically and thoroughly and careful consideration was given to all matters which were of special concern such as a noticeable change in behaviour. The review lasted some two hours and I left feeling satisfied that my sons needs were understood and were being catered for."

"My mother came to Kenwyn at the beginning of January. the initial process was handled very professionally by the Deputy Manager and the move was handled well. The staff are all very friendly, helpful and supportive. I have had issues with the laundry service which needs to be better organised. The staff treat my mother very kindly despite her dementia and frailty. She is checked every 30 minutes to ensure she is ok. The food is good and the staff have now found her portion size which makes eating easier. Overall we are very happy to have found Kenwyn for her."

"My husband has been at Barchester Kenwyn for 2 years and I have found it to be a very happy place. He is well cared for and the staff are fantastic. On the odd occasion when I have had any small problems they have always been dealt with very quickly. Management very approachable."
