Review from Terry M (Son of Resident) published on 2 June 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I needed to arrange care for my mother after my father passed away.
We really didn't want her to ever be on her own, or to feel frightened or lonely at any time, and wanted someone to be available to care for her whenever she needed. Mum having access to 24/7 care was crucial for her wellbeing and
ongoing support, as well as for our own peace of mind. We felt that a care home could provide that level of care and support.
I visited Caer Gwent before we made a final decision, met many of the staff, and was very impressed. Everyone was friendly, polite, and it felt right straightaway. The lounges are beautifully presented, decorated, and light, bright, and welcoming. It all helped with that very difficult decision about Mum moving into care.
Whilst the transition into care can be challenging, both for a new resident and their family, my mother as been welcomed and cared for brilliantly. I can't thank you enough for the kindness and support you have shown to my mother and our family.
Reply from Kevin Burke, Director of Care Homes and Dementia Services at Caer Gwent

As a family we have immense praise for the care provided to our mother. We are truly thankful to all the staff for the friendship and care, both daily and nursing, shown to our mother.

Mum has been in this home for over two years now, and she absolutely loves it there. It has given her a new lease of life. The staff are always fantastic, friendly, and very caring. The food is great, and the chef takes the time to talk with mum to make sure the food is to her taste. There are two activities
a day so there is always something to do. I saw mum recently and as soon as I entered her room, she beamed at me and proclaimed I stroked a donkey, so they even manage to arrange animal visits. For me, I value greatly that mum is loved, happy, and looked after very well. In fact, if I could move into Caer Gwent, I would!! A big thanks to 3 staff members in particular and the whole team.

Mum was nervous and self-conscious when she moved in. She worried about fitting in and about being lost or forgotten. She need not have worried! From day one the staff have been so kind and considerate. In the first few weeks, they walked her to the dining room and back, and to any activities. They
continued until she had her bearings and had made friends. Truly discreet in how they did this, so she did not feel foolish or uncomfortable. The activities are well varied and I believe Mum is conversing and thinking more clearly as well as being happy.
Reply from Kevin Burke, Director of Care Homes and Dementia Services at Caer Gwent

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My 93-year-old mother was understandably very anxious about leaving her home of 48 years to move to a care home. Six weeks later, she now regards Caer Gwent as her home and is so much happier, healthier, and carefree. The staff, without exception, are amazing - so friendly and attentive, providing real
care throughout the day and night. The home itself is bright, cheerful and very well equipped and has a lovely enclosed garden which my mother's room overlooks. The food is excellent which my mother appreciates as she retains a good appetite, is hearty, healthy, plentiful, and has lots of choices. The activities programme is so, so good, it has genuinely transformed my mother who had become housebound and had little interaction with others, she now revels in the company and variety of things to do - apparently, the time now flies by! I am so pleased with Caer Gwent, I am certain that we could not have done any better anywhere else.
Reply from Kevin Burke, Director of Care Homes and Dementia Services at Caer Gwent

I very much enjoy being here. The staff are very kind, helpful and always with a smile. There is a variety of activities to choose from, I particularly like the keep fit and yoga. The outings have been excellent. The other residents are friendly and very pleasant. The garden is beautiful and I enjoy

The care and kindness my husband has been shown since moving into Caer Gwent has been outstanding. It is a very happy home with dedicated and friendly staff and carers. His needs are dealt with effortlessly and in a way that makes him feel comfortable and safe. It is a beautiful home with lovely surroundings.
When family visit they are also made to feel welcome and encouraged to be part of the family at Caer Gwent. A nurse said to me on our arrival that they are very proud of their home and this is reflected throughout. My husband has settled well and enjoys such varied food. He particularly looks forward to the tea trolley coming round with lovely tea and cake. Thank you to everyone for making your care home a lovely home for my husband.

My Mother has been at Caer Gwent for around 2 years and although in good health she needs the extra care and attention you require when you reach the age of 97.
I can relax knowing the caring staff will provide everything that is needed from day to day, particularly gardening, and the recent addition
of facilities for residents to play and look after plants was most welcome. The garden itself is a nice place to be especially with the new patio furniture.
Outside activities such as the recent visit to a nature reserve were well organised and fun.
Importantly the ability to get medical attention quickly (in-house or local surgery) is a real bonus, especially with the current state of the NHS.

From the moment of our first enquiry, the Caer Gwent team have been consistently outstanding in the level of professional care, support and facilities provided. This, coupled with the genuine family atmosphere, has far exceeded our hopes and expectations in what could be provided for my elderly, frail
mother who has great mental capacity but a failing body. It truly is a 'home from home' with nothing being overlooked by the cheerful, compassionate, friendly staff who are never rushed or seemingly overstretched. My mother has settled so well and I have nothing but admiration for the way the home is run and it's positive impact on the lives of the residents and their families.

My mother is 88 years old. She has always been fiercely independent. In October last year, she had a fall at home and ended up in hospital for six weeks. We searched for a care home and were very impressed with our initial show round with the care manager at Caer Gwent Care Home.
My mother moved in
December. Since then, my mother has really settled down and is enjoying her life at the care home. The staff have really worked hard to help her. My mother is treated with the utmost dignity and the staff really show that they care. I couldn't be happier knowing that my mum is happy and very well looked after. Thank you.

In the time my dad has been with Cear Gwent they have been outstanding with their care and understanding of him. They have also supported me to navigate the transition from being my dad's carer to being a son again. They are a family and make you part of that family. Their warmth, professionalism and
their willingness to go above and beyond is exceptional.
Senior leadership are incredibly approachable. You are listened to and their guidance and clarity reassures me that my dad is in safe hands. The staff across all parts of the home do the most incredible job. I have nothing but respect and admiration for what they do. Quite incredible. My dad is at end of life and can be challenging, yet they are calm and deal with every situation with respect, a smile and a can-do attitude.
Caer Gwent is a beautiful home. From the cleanliness to the quality of the meals.
I know my dad is being cared for and is safe. Thank you all.

My mum has been a resident of Caer Gwent for some time - the care she receives from the wonderful team is above and beyond. They have infinite patience and capacity for empathy. There is always a warm welcome from all staff for visiting family and the surroundings are beautifully decorated, calm and

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.955)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.955) out of 10 for Caer Gwent is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 15 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:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.955 for Caer Gwent is calculated as follows: ( (173 Excellents x 5) + (4 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 179 Ratings = 4.955
  2. 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 Caer Gwent 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:

    1. 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
    2. 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 61 registered maximum number of service users is 12.2, which has been reached with 15 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
