Moving my Mam into care was a massive step. As she has dementia, there were understandably a few minor teething problems right at the beginning, but the staff at Cwmbran House were incredibly responsive and sorted everything out quickly. Mam absolutely loves it here. She constantly tells me how safe and well looked after she feels, and she deeply appreciates everything the staff do for her. The peace of mind this gives me is priceless. I highly recommend them.
continue to work closely with you to ensure we can provide the best care
for your mum. Kind regards,

From the moment I arrive at Cwmbran House, I am greeted by friendly smiling staff. I have always found Cwmbran House to be spotlessly clean (in particular the toilets smelled very fresh on my last visit) All carers and activity organisers have a caring and attentive approach to residents, often with a gentleness of humour. Cwmbran House site is a spacious safe space for residents and their rooms are of adequate size, comfortable + personalised. Small gardens allow residents to exercise, and to enjoy gardening / planting in raised beds. Some recently enjoyed sitting in shade under parasols in the fresh air. The level of care is maintained even in the challenging heat we've experienced recently. A very happy place, often with cheery music being played, encouraging singalongs with residents

On Saturday 18th October my mother was able to celebrate with a large group of family and friends in a special room in Cwmbran House. It was a fantastic celebration. A beautiful cake was provided for this special 100th birthday. Staff were warm, welcoming and professional, before, during and after her birthday. They were genuinely excited with us, such an occasion. Many guests mentioned the hospitality, space, and atmosphere of the home, thank you so much, a fantastic time was had by all.
Good morning, Caroline. Thank you so much for the review and for the nice words. We will pass on the feedback to our staff. We are glad you had a lovely celebration and all the family felt welcomed at Cwmbran House.
Excellent care from the staff. As a family we were reassured Mum was safe, happy and well cared for during her entire stay.

I am really impressed with this care home. It is very clean and my nan is well cared for. When I turn up to visit, the residents are always well looked after by the staff who engage with the residents carrying out activities. I really appreciate the staff going above and beyond and updating me on my nan's condition. They also regularly update their social media page which is nice to see when I haven't visited for a few days.
Thank you for your kind words, it's our pleasure to look after your nan.

This is my mum's second respite care for two weeks. All the staff welcomed her back and are absolutely lovely to her. She has alzheimers and can be difficult at times, but I felt absolutely confident leaving her in the care of Cwmbran House when we went abroad for a week. She is a pescetarian and her diet was catered for. All her washing was done and came back smelling lovely. I would have no hesitation in recommending Cwmbran House for respite or full time care. It is a wonderful place and is lovely to know that my husband and I can take a break from caring, and she will be well cared for. Thank you so much.

Cwmbran House Care Home has provided our mother with a safe place to live for the past 10 months. Mum has dementia and has the space to walk around as the corridors are long which gives her freedom and a certain amount of independence. The garden which is accessible from the communal room is wonderful during winter and summer and provides a safe space. As a family, we are very pleased with mum's care and I could recommend this care home.
Thank you for your lovely review. We will pass your comments onto the colleague team. We are pleased that your mum has settled in well at Cwmbran House.
My relative is treated with great kindness and respect, all the staff seem to genuinely care about the residents. Family members are made welcome at any time and are contacted immediately regarding any issues.

Dad took a while to settle in but he has now been here for several months and is very happy. The staff are kind, courteous and always helpful. The food/restaurant is first class.

The home is clean and organised with a friendly atmosphere.
Importantly, the staff is very professional; equally essential, residents are treated with kindness, thoughtfulness, patience, and respect. (Plus plenty of fun).
Families are welcomed at any time which is hugely reassuring, with any enquiries I have made being answered promptly and with care.
I have witnessed many fun-filled activities taking place, seen that birthdays are remembered, and have heard from more than one resident that the food is good too.
12 months on, I am so thankful we made the right choice for my mother, who is very happy here and would recommend Cwmbran House unreservedly.
Thank you for your lovely comments, they will be passed on to the team at Cwmbran House.

My Mother has been at Cwmbran House Residential Care Home for nearly 2 years and most of the staff are very attentive. It is very obvious that it is understaffed. They try their best but sometimes Mum has to wait to be taken to the toilet. We were promised trips out in the minibus as part of the activity programme but this has never happened. The use of agency staff means that some don't know the residents. There are some exceptional agency staff who are very good. Mum has her favourite carers who look after her well.

My brother, sister, and I viewed this care home and found that on just viewings it impressed us with its cleanliness and spaciousness which we found comforting. Also, we are very impressed by the care/resident relationship. We as a family were relieved when a place became available for our Mother. The care our Mother receives has more than lived up to expectations. There are numerous activities for residents to participate in. I personally feel reassured after every visit that our Mother is in good hands.
