The staff were excellent on the arrival of my mother and have continued to be, as this was an emotional time. Any problems or questions were resolved and answered. Covid restrictions have limited myself to view the room, but my opinion is that of a good one.

Lovely care home with polite, professional staff. Mom has settled in well and I am happy with the care she is receiving. Unfortunately, with covid, the staff are dealing mostly with appointments with relatives, rather than arranging activities but we understand the problem.
Reply from Honor Keatley, Managing Director at Ty Eirin Care HomeThank you so much for submitting your review. It continues to be tough for team members to juggle to ensure resident's family and friends can visit safely but the activities team members are still delivering activities which can be seen on the TY Eirin Facebook page.

My mum is very happy with all the staff and the unit/care home, but she regularly tells me that the food is very poor and a poor variety on offer. This the only thing that myself and my family are disappointed with. Excellent staff.
Reply from Honor Keatley, Managing Director at Ty Eirin Care HomeMany thanks for taking the time to write a review. We appreciate all feedback. I will speak to the Home Manager about your review and ask her to look into it.

I consider the home to have improved greatly since being taken over. Due to Covid, I have had limited access, but I and my mother, have always been treated with consideration and respect. Would not hesitate to recommend your service. Thank you for helping us through this very challenging time, especially

My wife has a section 6/117 covering her fees. Due to the virus and the lockdown, I am unable to comment on some of the choices. The choices marked are made from my experience prior to lockdown.
I note there have been some changes since your company has taken over.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.840)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.840) out of 10 for Ty Eirin Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 29 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 4.840 for Ty Eirin Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (290 Excellents x 5) + (42 Goods x 4) + (6 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 338 Ratings = 4.84
  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 Ty Eirin Care Home is based on 29 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 90 registered maximum number of service users is 18, which has been reached with 29 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.
