Review from P B (Granddaughter of Resident) published on 31 March 2025 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My grandfather moved in to Tremona two years ago, as a family a very difficult decision for us to make he was living in his own home and he wanted to remain there living an independent life. It was clear that grandad required more support than we could give him, we tried home care however he would shower
himself before the carers arrived, he was elderly and finding everyday tasks increasingly more difficult. Although there were signs grandad was officially diagnosed with dementia at the age of 97 and the move into the care home environment was our only option to keep him safe. I am so proud to say it is the best move we ever made, grandad has been so happy at Tremona, the management and care staff are outstanding in every way, we will celebrate his 100th birthday in August I am so happy that we will celebrate with not only our immediate family but with our Tremona family. Thank you all for everything x x

After 10 years of living in this home my mother finally passed away in January. Having experienced a decade of Tremona I can say that the staff have been amazing and very kind. Any small problems were addressed immediately. All basic needs were met but there were many extras included. There is an excellent
social programme and all visitors become as family. Many carers came to my mother's funeral service sacrifice their days off. It's the staff and management that make a place and this has an abundance of incredible dedicated people.

Thank you for your very kind words, Kim. Mum really was part of the family as were all of you, and we really will miss each and every one of you.

My mother was a resident at the Care Home for almost 10 months. It was a shock for my mother going from independent living to needing more support and care. However the kindness and care given by staff helped her to settle in. In fact overall her health improved. All the staff were very caring and always
professional. They demonstrated knowledge and expertise in all aspects of care they gave my mother. It was a happy few months for her. There was a lovely atmosphere in the Home - staff made a point of greeting visitors and I was always made to feel welcome. The staff took an interest in my mother and made every effort to include her in activities laid on by the Home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I highly recommend this home. From the moment my mum moved in the day she died all the staff showed nothing but care, kindness, compassion and good humour in helping her to settle and adjust to her new surroundings. The same caring was also extended to our family, we always felt welcomed at any time
and included in what was going on. We didn’t want our mum to move into a home but we had come to a place where we were worried about her safety and couldn’t cope with her dementia and the staff at Tremona calmed our worries and reassured us that we were doing the right thing. I’d like to live somewhere like that when and if my time comes.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
This is an excellent home with staff who could not care more about their residents, they have shown my dad enormous compassion, care and joy. Dad moved in in November 2021 and the team worked quickly to help him integrate, support his interests and help him worry less about his newly diagnosed dementia.
From safeguarding his physical health to improving his mental health, their care really is holistic. Dad had a couple of significant dips in his health along the way and the team adapted brilliantly - and has supported me unfailingly too. He passed away recently and I can tell from the reaction of all the staff that they all genuinely loved and cared for him. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Reply from Beckie Harrison, Home Manager at Tremona Care Home

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your very kind words as well as all your care and support of us during the pandemic! Having you and Dad as part of our family was incredibly special, and we will miss you both very much. Take care, with love from us all.

My mother has been a resident of Tremona Care Home for the past 8 months and has been very happy during her stay and settled in well. All staff are extremely kind, caring and professional and her well being has always been their utmost priority. I am always made to feel very welcome whenever I visit.
She has a lovely room and the home is extremely clean. The entertainment team work very hard to arrange lots of activities in the home and also days out which the residents really enjoy. Many thanks to everyone for all their attention, she is definitely in the best place!

I and my family have just made the difficult decision to help my grandad move into care. He is 97 and has been managing well independently at home. Over recent months, it’s clear that he needed the extra support as my mum was around his house helping him most days feeling increasingly worried about
him. Tremona had a homely feel from the moment we walked through the door, the staff and management team could not have made us feel more welcome, they have helped us at such a difficult time. A beautiful care home with a home-from-home feel, myself and my family can now feel happy that he is safe, cared for and looked after. We will all be forever grateful, thank you all.

My father recently passed away but from the time he went there he was well cared for, the last couple of years of his life. The staff, including management are caring and friendly. There has always been a lovely atmosphere and the activity staff are always finding ways to stimulate and improve the resident's
day. I have missed going there since he has passed but intend to stay in touch and join in with their outings and entertainment sessions.

My sister seems very content and their precautions during COVID have been spot on. I have been able to visit my sister regularly in a safe and comfortable

During a really challenging and uncertain time, my family were confident because our mum was being cared for in a safe, friendly and comfortable environment. At present everything is changing but as a family, we all feel that Tremona is a service in itself. We are very grateful to the care staff and
administrative staff who have always been really helpful and patient.

My father has been in Tremona for one month. I have sent that my dad's mood, health and mental state has improved loads. he, unfortunately, had 2 x14 day lockdown due to a hospital visit halfway through. The staff have managed my dad brilliantly, kept his spirits strong in a bad situation and made him
feel like he had a purpose and made him feel valued. When I came to reception the staff take the time to discuss my dad and gives me personal experience. Huge thank you to all the staff.

My mother has been shown nothing but care and support during her time at Tremona. She has settled well after a shaky start and now considers Tremona to be her home from home. The staff are wonderful and are constantly on alert to ensure that residents are cared for professionally and with dignity.
The home has a very relaxed atmosphere and encourages families to visit at any time. I would definitely recommend Tremona.

Tremona has managed to make my mum feel welcome, address her care needs after a fall (on holiday), and its staff and management have been handling the Covid situation, in my opinion, extremely well, given the circumstances. She has put on weight (a miracle with my mum) and as far as I can see has been
steadily recovering from her fall.
I was in dire straights when Tremona took my mum in - she'd had the accident abroad of all places and had had to go to hospital just two weeks before lockdown - but they have given me confidence in the care system and I would have no doubt in getting her back here should the need arise.

Current Review Score: 8.7 (8.684)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.7 (8.684) out of 10 for Tremona Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 4 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.8 out of 5 from 4 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 4.854 for Tremona Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (41 Excellents x 5) + (7 Goods x 4) ) ÷ 48 Ratings = 4.854
  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 3.83 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Tremona Care Home is based on 4 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 = 3.375
    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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8. 4 Positive Reviews ÷ 8.8 = 0.455
  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.
