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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

My mum is very happy and contented here. Peace of mind to know that she is being treated with dignity which she deserves. The management and staff are very kind and helpful, nothing is too much trouble, Very caring and first class attention when it involves mums personal hygiene. I would recommend Ty
Gwyn as a first class nursing home.

My father has been a resident in Ty Gwyn for nearly a year. He is very happy and has become more motivated and more mobile during this past year. The staff are so caring and friendly and really give him the time he needs. They make sure that he can fulfill his full potential to enjoy the many activities
and social occasions. I can certainly recommend this care home.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.876)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.876) out of 10 for Ty Gwyn Care 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 16 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 16 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 4.876 for Ty Gwyn Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (165 Excellents x 5) + (19 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 186 Ratings = 4.876

  • 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 Ty Gwyn Care Home is based on 16 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 45 registered maximum number of service users is 9, which has been reached with 16 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.
