It’s the team at Trewartha, who are devoted to enriching the lives of their residents, that make this home really stand out and give it a warm, family feel.

The variety of activities and experiences organised for the residents are fantastic and make every day different.

At the centre of the home is a large lounge, which is a hub of activity. From yoga, gentle exercise sessions and crafts, to games on the Magic Table, a piece of technology designed for people living with dementia, where they play interactive light games which encourage gentle movement.

Trewartha also has its own dementia choir, which is wonderful for the well-being of the residents and is a wonderful reminiscence activity.

The team is passionate about embracing the local community into day-to-day life in the home, keeping those community connections alive.

From live music from singers, musicians and choirs to weekly visits from a mobile hairdresser for appointments in the home’s salon.

The residents also enjoy lots of animal therapy, with everything from tortoises and rabbits to snakes, ponies and birds of prey.

There are also plenty of trips out in the community, from carveries at the local pub to walks along the beach.

With two secure gardens and a summer house, this summer the residents and team will be growing their own fruit, vegetables and herbs for the chef to use in the kitchen.

The home is split into four wings, each with its own cosy lounge, where residents can relax with loved ones, who are welcome at any time.

There are two dining rooms, where they enjoy delicious home-cooked meals together, prepared by the home’s chef, including roast dinners with all the trimmings and home baking for afternoon tea. Loved ones are also invited to enjoy a roast dinner together.

Providing residential, nursing, dementia care, the team also provide respite care breaks.

My mum's birthday - everyone made a point of coming over to wish her a happy birthday - A cake was made specially for afternoon tea - chocolate - her favourite - a card and a box of chocolates given to her by the home. All staff are always courteous, helpful, friendly, competent, polite and respected.
Everything is always actioned immediately - everyone knows my name and who's daughter I am. Nothing is too much trouble for Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home.

Reception staff very friendly and helpful. Staff seem pleasant but are hard to find sometimes. Clients' wellbeing is priority. Often TV's playing very loudly when no one is in the room.

Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home

Thank you for your feedback. We always ensure the correct staffing ratios to provide the best care possible, and we apologise if there was an occasion when you were looking for someone.

My sister, who has learning disabilities, and who has been a resident at Trewartha House since 13th July 2023, has been enveloped in such love, care and warmth in every way possible. That has helped her to settle into this wonderful home very well indeed. She is shown every consideration, dignity, inclusion
and she has a purpose being there. All this is even afforded to us, her family, and we are so very grateful for all that is afforded her and us.

Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review. We're so glad to hear that your sister has settled in so well at Trewartha and is receiving the love, care, and respect she deserves.

My mum has stayed before and thought so highly of it that when she was unwell again, she had no hesitation in wanting to stay at Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home for some recuperation time following a hospital admission.
The staff are exceptional. Nothing is too much trouble and my mum particularly
enjoyed the craft activities, she did clay work and made a Christmas wreath, amongst other things. They are unfailingly kind, cheerful and show real care to all residents at all times.
She loved the food and her room was bright and looked out over a garden area and bird table.
Her discharge from hospital was not good but the staff at Trewartha managed to sort all of the things that the discharge missed, from lost medication, to a missing spacer and even a cannula which hadn't been removed in hospital.
She has now returned home as she is well enough to do so but if and when she needs some extra care, she would have no hesitation in returning.
Thank you to all the staff for going above and beyond.

Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home

Thank you for sharing such a heartfelt review, our team at Trewartha will be touched to read your wonderful feedback. We're truly so pleased that your mum chose to return to the home for her recuperation and that her experience was so positive. It's wonderful to hear she enjoyed the craft activities, her room and the home-cooked food and we're so pleased team were able to give her all the support she needed. Knowing she would be so happy to return means a great deal to us. Please send her our warmest regards and thank you for your kind words.

Mum has recently become a resident at Trewartha. Mum says it's like a top-class hotel, spotlessly clean everywhere. Food is of a high standard and gorgeous, Mum has even put on some weight. Mum loves the friendliness of all the staff who often sit to have a natter, she says they're so lovely and kind.
Mum has made friends at the home and loves the company.
I visit Mum twice a week and the staff are always so friendly and kind, I am updated on any relevant information to include health issues. I no sooner sit with Mum on my visits and a cup of tea and biscuit appears for us both. I can tell from my visits that Mum is content and happy and most of all safe, and that is all I could hope for my elderly mum.
Thank you all staff and management.

Reply from Kate Yates, Communications and Content Specialist at Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home

We are delighted with the level of care my father is receiving. The staff keep us informed and the nursing staff advise us and deal with any health issues.
Whenever we visit all staff members are so welcoming and polite and we cannot fault the care and kindness shown towards my father.
A particular
mention must be given for the wonderful day my father had recently for his 100th birthday. Everyone made a fuss of him, there were presents, surprises and also a delicious buffet and birthday cake.
We are relieved that he has settled and is so happy which gives us peace of mind.

My elderly friend who suffers from vascular dementia and for whom I have LPOA was admitted to Trewartha House several months ago.
I was very impressed from the beginning by all the team (management, carers, nurses, domestic staff and kitchen staff).
The staff are friendly, welcoming and it is obvious
to me that they enjoy their work. They show commitment, dedication and empathy.
Their practice of the core values of care was also apparent while I have been visiting.
I would say that the standard of care, knowledge and understanding of individual needs is of a high level.
The management and care staff always give me timely updates on any changes to my friend's care plan, health issues, medication changes and any other matter important to the health and well-being of my friend.
There is a variety of activities daily to give sensory stimulation to the residents which is important for general wellbeing.
Varied choices of menu and all tastes are catered to a high standard.

Cannot ever say so much as to how my mum is looked after at Trewartha Care Home. She was so lucky to have gone to Trewartha. When I heard that it was taken over by a new group I was quite worried, as it turned out, unnecessarily, so I can't believe that it is ever so much better! Well done to all of
you at Trewartha.

My dad has been in Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home for nine years and he has been well looked after for his whole stay.

Warmth, love and excellent caring are only one of the many positive descriptions I could use for the care given to our dear friend. She is extremely happy and settled and so are we. As regular visitors, we are made to feel very welcome indeed, and our visits are greeted with true and honest friendship
by all the staff. We are kept very well informed of any up-to-date circumstances and totally trust the dedicated and professional staff to advise as and when necessary. We cannot express our gratitude enough to everyone at Trewartha Residental and Nursing Home and we just know our friend couldn't be in a finer residential setting.

Our daughter has been cared for in Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home for several weeks now and I just wanted to let you know that her care is second to none. We are so happy and relieved that our daughter has not had one seizure in Trewartha although she was having several in her previous care
home. The management in Trewartha is very approachable and caring. The staff are all dedicated and caring and all have the resident's interest at heart.

We have found that all the staff at Trewartha House are very friendly, caring and supportive. They have the well-being of all the residents as a priority. The home is very clean and the decor is good. The choice and quality of the food are very good. They have a good and varied range of activities to
stimulate the residents. The Coronation celebrations were excellent. The lounge area was decorated with balloons and flags and a lovely party atmosphere was created by the staff. The food was superb and the cake was amazing. Top marks to everyone involved.

We recently moved my mother into Trewartha House - a very rushed decision as our family situation had changed quite drastically. The support we received from the management at Trewartha House was absolutely first-class. My mother was welcomed by all the staff and seemed very relaxed considering it was
a huge upheaval for her (she has dementia). The care she is receiving is fabulous. Everyone knows her and looks after her so well. The food is amazing - she enjoys it very much. As a family, we too have been looked after during every visit and feel very relieved that Mum is cared for twenty-four hours a day by such dedicated people. All the staff are amazing and we will be forever grateful to them for the way they care for our precious mum. Thank you is not enough - we are in awe of every single one.

My mum has been at Trewartha House since September 2022. I had visited the home in August 2022 when looking for a home for Mum. I visited several homes and Trewartha House stood out and was top of my list. I was very lucky that when Mum needed to go into a home, Trewartha had space for her. All staff
are lovely, the home is well led and managed and Mum has settled in really well and has made friends and is very happy. I would definitely recommend Trewartha House.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.868)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.868) out of 10 for Trewartha Residential and 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 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 14 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 4.868 for Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (149 Excellents x 5) + (14 Goods x 4) + (4 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 167 Ratings = 4.868

  • 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 Trewartha Residential and Nursing Home is based on 14 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 37 registered maximum number of service users is 7.4, which has been reached with 14 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.
