Mum was initially agreed reluctantly to go into Heol Don for respite care as she was struggling at home and we were exhausted. She is now a permanent resident as she is so content there. The staff have been amazing, right from the first tentative enquiry phone calls. We have been met with nothing but
empathy, kindness and compassion. Her room is lovely and she has been encouraged to hang pictures and bring in anything she wants to make it personal to her. She loves the food and enjoys walking in the garden. Her dog is welcomed for visits! There is always something to do, crafting, scrabble, bingo, singing or watching professional entertainers and she is lonely no more! Thank you
Reply from Rosie Smith, Customer Advisor at Heol Don Care HomeHello and thank you for taking the time to leave such a lovely review for Heol Don! We understand looking for care can be a difficult process and are thrilled that your Mum has settled in so well within the home. It is brilliant to hear how fantastic the staff have been with your family and we are so pleased that Mum is content and happy within the home.

I have never, quite honestly, witnessed so much patience, care, genuine love and tenderness shown to both Mum and to us as a family, especially in the last few months of her life. Every member of staff, within their different roles, deserves such praise for their kindness, dedication and hard work.
Since her residency began in September 2022, Mum loved getting to know each and every team member and very much appreciated her daily little catch-ups with them individually. Never did I feel we were a nuisance, that we asked too much, and in these last few weeks in particular, they have shown as much care towards us as they have Mum. We felt truly supported by the team.
Everyone would take time out of their busy days to pop into her room offering us kind words of love and support. We knew Mum was loved. It was quite beautiful.
We will simply miss you all and will never forget your love and kindness.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Reply from Rosie Smith, Customer Advisor at Heol Don Care HomeHello and thank you for writing such a lovely review for the staff at Heol Don. Firstly we would like to express our condolences at the passing of your Mum and wish you the best during this difficult time. We are thrilled to hear you felt the love and support of the team. It sounds as if your Mum was truly an important part of the home and we so pleased she was loved and cared for there. We have passed on your thoughtful words to the home, best wishes!

My aunt who is 101 years old moved into Heol Don Care Home in April following 3 months in hospital. Prior to that she had lived independently so entering residential care was a huge decision/change for her. She has been allowed to adapt to her new surroundings at her own pace, while all the time being
treated with utmost kindness, care and consideration. She greatly enjoys sitting/walking in the gardens so was quickly moved to a room with garden access. This gives her great pleasure. The staff are friendly, professional and kind. They go out of their way to meet her needs whenever possible.
Reply from Rosie Smith, Customer Advisor at Heol Don Care HomeHello and thank you for taking the time to leave the staff at Heol Don Care Home such a lovely review. We are thrilled that your 101-year-old Aunt has adapted to care within the home and that she has been allowed to do this at her own pace. It is wonderful to hear words like "kindness", "care" and "consideration" being used to describe our residents' experience within the home. We are thrilled that your aunt is enjoying her time at Heol Don and that the staff and surroundings are giving her such pleasure.

We had a positive impression of the home from the first show around - which was friendly, helpful, and reassuring. The day that my Mother moved in her favourite armchair was already in place and there was plenty of room for ornaments etc on the shelves. We had a lovely welcome from the staff and all
these things helped with the transition of my Mother into residential care. The home manager has been very keen to help my Mother settle in well.
Reply from David Mclean, Customer Service Adviser at Heol Don Care HomeThank you for your lovely review. We hope Heol Don Care Home did everything possible to make the transition as easy as possible for your mother as well as your family. We are very happy to hear you can feel at ease with your mother in our care. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make her stay as comfortable as possible.

I am sorry to say that I do not recommend Heol Don in Cardiff to anyone who is looking for a place for their loved one to live. My brother was only there for 2 months The first month he wasn't too bad The second month he went downhill so fast it is heartbreaking to watch. I asked to speak to the manager
but I was told she wasn't available. I never did get the chance to speak to them. I took a video of my brother and it breaks my heart. You could see he was so very frightened there. Always looking at the door and wanting to hide in his bed. My brother had one watch taken and another one broken. He is now settling into another home and the difference in him after 2 weeks is like a miracle. Even after the first week, he looked different. I am so happy that I have found a lovely safe and secure place for him to be happy. So no, I do not recommend Heol Don Cardiff.
Reply from David Mclean, Customer Service Adviser at Heol Don Care HomeI am sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with the home. I am pleased to hear that your brother is now well-settled and happy in the correct environment for his needs.

Two weeks of respite after my recent hip replacement operation at Heol Don Care Home was the last thing I did.
I felt very well supported amongst extremely friendly staff and now I feel ready to go home to my apartment where I live independently on my own.
I can highly recommend Heol Don Care Home.

Being forced to find respite care for our elderly family friend due to a fire at her home. We were greeted by a professional and friendly contact and within two days our friend was in a lovely ensuite room and made to feel very comfortable and safe. The service has been so friendly and she has been
made to feel at home, with attentive care and great food. First-rate service and care are provided at all times by a great team.

It’s a joy to visit my relative who lives at Heol Don. You are made to feel so welcome from the minute you walk through the door. My relative can be quite demanding, but nothing seems too much trouble, and they are happy and content and have made friends and joined in the activities too. There is always
lots to eat and drink, and you can even order off the menu too. The home is very clean, and staff are friendly and attentive. Would highly recommend.
Reply from Grace Langfield, Customer Service Adviser at Heol Don Care HomeThank you for your lovely review. We are happy to hear that both you and your relative feel like a part of our Heol Don family. It's really nice hearing from family members who feel like their loved ones are cared for and looked after so well by our staff. We will certainly pass your comments on to the manager.

We chose Heol Don for my sister-in-law and brother-in-law in December when their need for care became urgent. From my initial contact via telephone with the manager to our subsequent meetings with him I cannot thank him enough for his care and support during the whole of process. When we first stepped
inside Heol Don we knew this would be the place where my sister-in-law and brother-in-law would be well looked after - and happy as that is important also. We settled both our relatives in over the Xmas period and everyone went out of their way to ensure that all their needs were met. Everywhere is absolutely spotless and the food is excellent. I think for me the highest praise that I could give is that I have told my family that should I ever need to be placed into care this is where I would like to be. Well done everyone.
Reply from Eden Tomlinson, Customer Service Adviser at Heol Don Care HomeThank you for your kind words. We are very happy to hear you can feel at ease with your loved ones in our care. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make their stay as comfortable as possible.

While I believe my aunt is well cared for, I feel that the home has treated me poorly. My aunt, with severe dementia, is without capacity and I am her next-of-kin and first point of contact; at the time of writing, she has been at Heol Don for two months.
At this time, I have not been given any information
regarding the practices, processes or policies of the home and was not told anything with regards to my aunt’s settling in. I asked questions face-to-face and was told “I can’t tell you anything” (because I do not have lasting power of attorney). I have then gone on to ask questions regarding my position. I have done this by email which has not been answered, I have given feedback by email which has not been acknowledged, I have given feedback in person to a member of the senior leadership team, and this has not been followed up with me. I have asked, by email and at reception, for someone to phone me and they have not.
Reply from Grace Langfield, Customer Service Adviser at Heol Don Care HomeThank you for your feedback. We have a genuine regard for all of our residents and their health and wellbeing are an absolute priority. We will pass on your feedback to the home's manager, however, if you would like to discuss this further, please contact our Feedback Team by emailing feedback@bupa.com or calling 0113 381 6293.

Overall Experience 1.0 out of 5
Absolutely appalling experience at Heol Don since moving up to the nursing floor. For starters, lots of my grandmother’s stuff goes missing and never gets returned, including Christmas gifts! Additionally, the staff retention is poor. They do not speak to residents or their families in an appropriate
manner. The laundry service always allows clothing to go missing or care labels are not read and clothes ruined and then after the clothes have been washed, are left in a pile in the wardrobe. She also gets dressed in summer dresses in the middle of winter and thick winter tights in summer! Also, the nursing staff are unprofessional and awful- an example being one nurse shouted out my grandmother’s diagnosis in the living room when it hadn’t been discussed with the family or the resident. We have previously raised concerns and followed the complaints procedure and nothing has been done- we have spoken to senior people at Bupa and the staff don’t follow their instructions! Awful!
Reply from Julie Chiverton, Customer Advisor at Heol Don Care HomeFeedback is really important to us and our residents are our number one priority and we take complaints very seriously. Please email feedback@bupa.com so we can investigate this for you.

My mum has been in Heol Don Care Home since April 2023 and since day 1 the care that has been provided is absolutely excellent.
My mum's needs have always been met, her room is always clean, the whole building is always clean and well maintained, the facilities are excellent, the food is excellent,
the management of the home is clearly excellent and finally, all staff, starting at reception and the offices through to the carers and then to all support staff - cleaners, cooks, maintenance staff, laundry staff - and managers - all work to the highest standards and all are friendly and helpful. We really feel that our mum is in a caring place, with plenty of activities put on and facilities available - Heol Don really have provided a 10 out of 10 service.

I came to Heol Don for a two week post-operation respite stay following a bilateral knee replacement. I needed rest and support, when I needed it I got both. The staff were kind, caring and attentive. I raised a couple of issues and made some suggestions, they listened and acted on everything I raised.
For myself, I was only here for ten days and the attention I got was sufficient to meet my needs, however, and I say this as an observation, people who came as permanent residents I spoke to had lost their homes, pets and families and a lifestyle and I felt they needed someone to talk to. The staff always engaged and were respectful but had tasks to perform and didn't have time. Maybe volunteers, befrienders or a buddy system I think would make a difference.

I came to Heol Don for 2 weeks to recuperate from a knee operation. The welcome from the staff was warm and boisterous and I was soon settled in a comfortable room with all the amenities: warmth, cleanliness and privacy. Food is a high priority in Heol Don and every effort was made in creating varied
and interesting menus to accommodate different tastes. I shall miss the delicious homemade cakes and puddings. We were entertained with a cheese and wine evening (with a singer encouraging us to sing along), it turned into a very moving experience for me to see so many beautiful patients, immaculate, well care for and, for the most part, at peace. It was a tribute to the care, patience and wonderful dedication of the wonderful staff.

(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 78 registered maximum number of service users is 15.6, which has been reached with 46 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.
