Review from Lesley T (Daughter of Resident) published on 5 May 2020 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My lovely Mum spent her last 7-months at Ty Gwyn and sadly, but expectedly, passed away a few days ago. During this end stage of her life, she received the kindest and most professional care from every single person who looked after her, and words are not adequate to express how grateful I am to all those wonderful people. If she could have, I know she would have too. I hope her beautiful smile was enough to let you all know how much you meant to her...and to me, for caring for her so well. Even during these strange times of COVID regulations, lockdown and shielding of our vulnerable elderly, I was always made to feel involved and up to date on all that was happening to my mother. And at the very end, I was still able to be part of my mother's last few days, whilst maintaining safety for all concerned, in a sensitive and humane way.

You all know who you are, I hope you all know how truly amazing you have been in my mother's life, and mine. Thank you.

Reply from Val Stan, Home Manager at Ty Gwyn Care Home
I would like to thank you with all my heart for your beautiful and encouraging words.
It was a pleasure to look after your mum and also a pleasure to meet you and have you as part of our big Ty Gwyn family.

Hopefully, we will see you again at the end of lockdown and you will visit us to have a coffee and a cake and share beautiful memories of your lovely mum.

Overall Experience

Before we placed my wife in Ty Gwyn, my family and I looked at various homes. We were unanimous that Ty Gwyn was head and shoulders above the rest and were glad they had a vacancy (about 4 years ago now). All friends and family are impressed when entering the home. It is well decorated and always scrupulously clean. The staff are friendly, professional and hard-working and I am always confident to leave my wife in their care when I leave. It is an excellent, well-run home, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a home to care for a loved one.

Overall Experience

My mother had been to a few homes some for respite as my Dad was mums carer, but when dad passed we needed a Nursing Home for Mum. We are so, so pleased that Mum is here at Ty Gwyn. Mum is always clean, it always smells nice, her room is spotless, always a window open, the staff are amazing and a credit to the care industry. We have seen that mum is happy at Ty Gwyn. If I had to criticise the home, it would be to clone the staff for all the other Nursing and care homes.

Reply from Emma Watson, Home Manager at Ty Gwyn Care Home

Thank you for such a positive review for Ty Gwyn. You have rated us Excellent in all areas and to read that you think the staff are amazing and they should be cloned says it all. I will share your comments to the staff where I know your review will be greatly appreciated and will enhance staff morale

Overall Experience

Since my mother has been a resident she has been treated with dignity and excellent care by staff who seem genuinely interested in ensuring the residents' needs are met. Today, when I was visiting a member of staff called in on her day off with her young son as the residents enjoy seeing him and he also enjoys the interaction. There is a good rapport between staff and residents with many a joke shared. Relatives are welcomed and encouraged to have input. I would definitely recommend Ty Gwyn Care Home in Penarth.

Reply from Emma Watson, Home Manager at Ty Gwyn Care Home

Thank you for such lovely comments about the care excellent care that your Mum receives from the staff. Residents always enjoy visits from children and babies and we encourage such visits. It’s good to read that you are very welcomed and encouraged to have your say about what goes on in the home....

Review from Nicky (Daughter of Resident) published on 22 May 2018 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
This is my second review of Ty Gwyn, my previous review being in May 2017.
My mother was in Ty Gwyn for just over a year prior to her recent passing. In this 12 months, Mum had the highest level of care and friendship from every single member of staff. Every caregiver was familiar and responsive to her extensive, complex and constantly changing needs, responding appropriately - but keeping her wishes at the forefront.
The staff assisted appropriately steering our family through emotional and difficult decisions preparing us for Mum's peaceful passing.
We cannot thank Ty Gwyn enough for everything and will be eternally grateful to them.

If you are having to make the difficult step of placing a dear relative into nursing care I would encourage you to visit Ty Gwyn. We knew the moment we stepped into the building it was the right place for our mother. Residents and families are at the forefront of their ethos which is demonstrated in every moment of care given.

Reply from Emma Watson, Home Manager at Ty Gwyn Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review about the staff and the care at Ty Gwyn. You rated the home as Excellent in all areas, which sums up the overall standard and care that the home provides.

Review from Kelvin S (Son of Resident) published on 25 April 2017 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

My mother was at Ty Gwyn for almost 5 years prior to her recent peaceful death. She received care of the highest quality, delivered by superb staff with complete professionalism, empathy and genuine compassion. I do not think Mum could have received better care elsewhere - and I looked at many Homes before deciding that Ty Gwyn was the right place for Mum. I visited nine times a week and always was satisfied that Mum was treated with skill, respect, dignity and affection. I am humbled by the dedication of all the staff - they were doing far more than "just doing their job". Additionally, they were also very supportive to me at times when I needed it, and they will always have my respect and my gratitude.

Reply from Keyly Scott, Home Manager at Ty Gwyn Care Home

Thank you for taking time out from what must be a very sad time for you and your family, to give such positive feedback to the staff and the service at Ty Gwyn. As a relative who visited and gave such dedication to your loved one, you would have seen all aspects of the home and this makes your comments so meaningful for the staff. We will ensure that the team are aware of your comments.

My wife was a resident at Ty Gwyn for 4 years. Her stay there was very happy.

She enjoyed the food and I have no memory of her complaining about anything during her stay there. I only missed 4 visits in 4 years, she was always presentable when I visited. I enjoyed the company of other residents and that of dedicated staff.

Reply from Keyly Scott, Home Manager at Ty Gwyn Care Home

It was such a pleasure to see that we have consistently been able to provide a high level of care and support over the 4 years you were visiting your wife at the home.

Mum at nearly 94 was just showing signs of dementia when she came to Ty Gwyn. We were unaware how it would quickly unfold but Ty Gwyns staff were very patient and cared for her so well, although mum proved to be difficult at times. She experienced very happy times at the home and we are extremely grateful that these were her dignified last days. The staff were amazing.

Your feedback is very valuable to the team at Ty Gwyn. We will ensure that the staff team are made aware of your comments. They will be delighted that you felt that they made her time at the home the best it could have been, in such difficult times.

Review from J M (Cousin of Resident) published on 24 May 2016 Submitted via Postal Card
Overall Experience

My 92 year old cousin was resident at Ty Gwyn from June 2015 until she passed away on 25th Feb 2016. I was extremely pleased with the care she received as well as the love and professionalism from all the staff. My cousin spent the most happiest times at Ty Gwyn while suffering from Alzheimers/Dementia related physical/mental symptoms. The manager kept us informed at all stages, and we would highly commend her for managing the home. I would 100% recommend to anyone considering a home for their loved ones.

Reply from Keyly Scott, Home Manager at Ty Gwyn Care Home

Thank for our comments. It was so delightful to see that the staff team and especially the Manager had made such a difference to your cousin’s last months whilst at the home. We are truly grateful that you have taken the time to send in your feedback which we will ensure is given to the team.

Overall Experience

I am very happy to have Ty Gwyn helping me with my mum who is 97 and has been resident for 12 months. There is a unique approach which keeps everything positive. They have achieved a delicate balance between responsibility and good humour. Problems are dealt with in professional but relaxed way, when they arise. This has reduced the pressure on me and given me the confidence of knowing that this is the right place for my mum to be. I have found this stage of my life very difficult, with a team that gives 110% has given me support. Nothing is too much trouble no matter how difficult it gets.

I cannot thank Ty Gwyn enough for the care, respect, dignity and compassion everyone gave to both Dad and myself for the time he was with you.

The team are exceptional and every contact I had made me feel so informed and welcome a real homely environment with great nursing care and support.

I am very grateful Dad was looked after so well in the final six months of his long and enjoyable life.
