The homes were rated on overall standard, facilities, care and support, cleanliness, treating the residents with dignity, food and drink provided, staff, activities, management, safety and security, rooms and value for money.

Tracey Webb, manager of Ty Gwyn care home said: “Winning the award was so unexpected but a great tribute to all the hard work, myself and my staff put into Ty Gwyn to make it home from home for the residents that live with us.

“It’s wonderful to receive such positive feedback and it makes all the hard work worthwhile to be recognised in this way.

“We are a very happy home and this is due to the dedication of our staff and the fact that the home is very much part of the local community.

“We are proud to work in partnership with the community, along with outside organisations, who help us enhance the services we offer, enabling our residents to have fulfilment in their everyday lives.”
