Since my mum has been in Cwm Cartref's care it has changed her and our lives for the better, knowing that your loved ones are not only physically cared for, but emotionally too. I can't say enough good things about all the staff nurses, maintenance etc. Would recommend them very highly.

I am very pleased with the level of care that my nana receives here on a daily basis. All members of staff are extremely professional, friendly and kind. My nana is treated with dignity and respect which is reflected in how settled she feels here. This home has a real family feel to it and nothing

is too much trouble for the amazing staff. It is always lovely and clean in the communal areas and in my nana's bedroom. I would highly recommend this home to anybody looking to find a placement for a loved one.

My dad arrived at Cwm Cartref on Thursday 14th November. We were greeted by the manager who was really helpful and caring. The nursery I spoke to was so helpful and full of smiles. Since visiting my dad, we have been so pleased with all the caring staff who look after my dad. I will always remember

a member of staff who was bringing teas, coffees and homemade cakes around and called my dad by his first name. This was priceless. I also met one staff member who was so helpful and caring.

Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident at Cwm Cartref Care home for approximately 14 months, having been transferred there directly from hospital following a 6-month stay due to various issues.
Considering that she has always told us never to put her in a home, she seems happy enough there now she realises

that she cannot be looked after at home. She likes the staff - who are always very friendly and attentive, and enjoys the food served there. She seems to be well looked after and is always washed and clean and well dressed.
On our regular visits to see my mother, we find the staff to be very friendly and helpful, and the property is well-maintained and is always very clean throughout.
Although my mother is unable to take part, there are regular events held there - including visits by singers, fates, craft classes, etc which help keep the residents active and involved.
We are now very pleased that she is a resident at Cwm Cartref.

Reply from Oli Reynolds, Registered Manager at Cwm Cartref Care Home

Thank you so much for your kind review. We're delighted that your mother is happy with the care she's receiving at Cwm Cartref and that you have noticed our team's dedication during your visits. It's wonderful that the activities and events are still able to create an engaging and lively environment for all our residents. We take pride in maintaining a warm and welcoming home and we're so glad that it meets your expectations. Thank you for your continued support.

My aunt has been with you for some months. I have to say she is very happy. I am very impressed with the care and attention she receives, nothing is too much trouble for the staff. My aunt had a problem sitting and the management team procured a new chair for her which has made things more comfortable

for her. I don't live locally and when I visit I am made to feel very welcome. The atmosphere is lovely. It's not an easy job you're staff do, put my mind is at rest. knowing how well she is looked after, and as she told me in a phone call yesterday she wouldn't want to live anywhere else.

Overall Experience

My mother has been a resident at Cwm Cartref for two years progressing from residential to nursing care. The management and staff have always treated my mother with care and respect as well as providing invaluable advice and support to myself and the wider family during health challenges through Dementia.
Cwm

Cartref takes pride in its service and is always well-maintained, clean, and well-presented. Circulation areas have recently been updated and are welcoming.
Visitors are welcome at any time and are encouraged to participate in activities. It's a very caring and family-orientated environment and I am delighted with the care and support that my mother receives.
I would highly recommend and thank all (including other families) for their ongoing support.

I have nothing but good things to say about the home. The management and all the staff have been excellent since my mother moved in this year. I and my family call at various times during the week and the staff are always pleasant and accommodating. My mother is always well cared for, and although because

of her dementia, she doesn't fully understand where she is, she always seems happy. The food is of a very high standard and the home is always clean and tidy. Everything I have asked the home to do has been actioned and I couldn't wish for Mum to be in a better place.

Overall Experience

My sister moved into Cwm Cartref on 5th July 24. From arrival the manager and all staff were very welcoming to her and to the extended family.
The first thing that struck me was the colourful array of hanging baskets on the approach to the entrance. The security at the entrance is excellent, the home

was spotless and every member of staff was smiling and constantly busy. There was a delicious aroma coming from the dining room and kitchen.
Staff went out of their way to settle her down and very soon whisked her away for a delicious lunch.
I and other family members visited her daily for several days to ensure she was settling and we were and are delighted at the way things are going.
There is a good program of entertainment and interaction which she finds stimulating. The family is encouraged to join residents for entertainment. She tells me she's happy so we are satisfied that the move to Cwm Cartref was in her very best interests and thank every member of staff for their care.

Reply from Oli Reynolds, Registered Manager at Cwm Cartref Care Home

We are so pleased to hear about your sister's positive transition to Cwm Cartref, and that both she and your family felt warmly welcomed from the start. It is wonderful to know that the environment, from the colourful hanging baskets to the aroma of meals, made such a strong impression. Our team is dedicated to making every resident feel at home, and it's great to hear that your sister is settling in well and enjoying the activities. We're delighted that the move has brought peace of mind to you and your family.

Overall Experience

Dad has been a resident now for about 9 months. I know he's not always been easy to care for and at times could try the patience of a saint but Cwm Cartref staff are unfailingly patient and cheerful with him. They're a great team and there's a real family atmosphere created by the friendly staff there.

Of course, nowhere can ever be perfect but at any time I've identified the smallest concern it has always been dealt with immediately and family has been kept informed and involved. Every week there is a variety of activities for residents to take part in as they wish and family and friends are always welcome at any time. Meetings are held for residents and families to discuss things and air their views or ask questions. I'm very happy that I chose Cwm Cartref for my dad and recommend it to others too.

Reply from Oli Reynolds, Registered Manager at Cwm Cartref Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review. We're so pleased to know how happy you are with the care your dad is receiving at Cwm Cartref. It is a privilege to care for him. We will be sure to pass on your wonderful comments to our team. Thank you for your continued support.
