My father who suffered from advanced dementia was a resident for 5 months and the care and support Dad received during the Covid pandemic was outstanding. Dad was always treated with respect and dignity by all of the care staff. I cannot recommend Ty Melin highly enough.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5

Ty Melin looked after my mum who had mixed dementia. The staff are the kindest, caring people I have ever met. From the owner to the housekeepers, they treated Mum with kindness, love, respect and most importantly dignity. Moving Mum to a home was one of the hardest things we have had to do, but they
made our decision easier to deal with. Mum loved it there and loved everyone taking care of her. Nothing is too much trouble here. Seeing the residents' faces light up when they see the staff coming to them is wonderful to see. You can genuinely see they treat the residents as if they are their own family. I would recommend Ty Melin in a heartbeat. If you want to know your loved one is being cared for and looked after, then this is the place to go.

Current Review Score: 8.1 (8.147)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.1 (8.147) out of 10 for Ty Melin is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 1 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.1 out of 5 from 1 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 5.000 for Ty Melin is calculated as follows: ( (12 Excellents x 5) ) ÷ 12 Ratings = 5

  • 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 3.147 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Ty Melin is based on 1 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 = 3

    • 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 34 registered maximum number of service users is 6.8. 1 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.8 = 0.147

  • 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.
