My mother has been resident at Allt Y Mynydd Home, Llanybydder for the last 12 months. The care provided by the home and the staff have been outstanding. The care, compassion, dignity and professionalism of the staff have been wonderful. The home is resident focused and driven. They have activities
all day and hold a residents forum where they are given an opportunity as to what activities they want to do. I work and regularly visit my mother at all time of the day and night, and there is a warm welcome every time. The home has a welcoming feel to it and is always warm and comfortable. Home from Home.

I went to Allt Y Mynydd for the first time last week to visit a relative who had recently moved to the home. I had been worried about what I might find given the horror stories we hear about care homes but I needn’t have worried. The surroundings are beautiful and the atmosphere in the home was so cheerful
and friendly. The staff were chatty and helpful and I could see that they all had such a good rapport with the residents with lots of laughter throughout. They have a wonderful activities team with something going on every morning and afternoon - while I was there they had a Shetland pony visiting, even going in the rooms where residents were unable to get out of bed! The food looked very appetising and plenty of it and I was offered tea and some delicious home made cake. The visit really put my mind at rest, I know that my relative is getting the best possible care and I would recommend Allt Y Mynydd to anyone in the unfortunate position of having to put a relative in a care home.

My grandmother has been a resident of Allt Y Mynydd care home for almost a year. The decision for her to become a long term resident in a residential home was a difficult one at the time. The care, support and upkeep at Allt Y Mynydd has made the transition a very positive experience. As a family, we
are happy that our grandmother is being cared for to the best possible standard. Her physical, mental and social wellbeing are being nurtured in the best way and we are always welcomed to share meals, drinks and spend time with her as we please. We are so grateful for the care and support at Allt Y Mynydd not to just my grandmother but also to us as a family.

This is a beautiful home in lovely surroundings. The staff are so friendly and welcoming, nothing is too much trouble. I have needed to speak to the manager on a couple of occasions and have found her to be approachable, knowledgeable and obviously have the resident's welfare at heart. Although the
home needs a bit of facelift in areas, it does not impact on the overall comfort and warm feeling of the home.

This is a lovely care home in beautiful surroundings. The staff are very welcoming, kind and caring. The atmosphere is pleasant, and everyone is helpful and always seem ready to assist as needed. The room was clean, bright and airy, and there were no unpleasant smells. The food on offer was generous
and plentiful, with an excellent menu. My husband was very happy and obviously enjoyed his stay. He was impressed at having a daily shower and said it was top of the care homes. He enjoyed the interaction with the other residents, and also the Christian service given on Sunday.

A beautiful setting for a care home. The staff are very kind and caring. The care home has good standards of cleanliness and doesn't smell.
The management team and staff are very approachable and always have a smile.
Mum passed away in May and she was treated with great care and respect.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.656)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.656) out of 10 for Allt Y Mynydd Nursing Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 11 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 11 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 4.656 for Allt Y Mynydd Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (87 Excellents x 5) + (39 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 128 Ratings = 4.656

  • 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Allt Y Mynydd Nursing Home is based on 11 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • 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 44 registered maximum number of service users is 8.8, which has been reached with 11 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • 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.
