Review from Beverly W (Cousin of Resident) published on 20 January 2020 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
Over the last ten years or so, my husband and I have had, on occasion, to visit several family members and friends in nursing or care homes. Plas Bryn Rhosyn is easily the best of them all. The staff are always most helpful, friendly and polite without exception. My cousin couldn't be looked after better.

Review from Yvonne P (Resident / Service User) published on 31 July 2018 Submitted via Postal Card•
Overall Experience
During my stay at the rehabilitation care home, I have received encouragement and lots of support which is an improvement after hospital. Each member of staff gives 100% to residents to return home when safe to do so and I think this is the way forward for treatment after an illness or fall.
