When Arnold came to you in January, I was told he had about two weeks to live. Because of YOUR care, he lived until May. For a man who refused to eat at home, it was wonderful to see him look forward to his lunch and tea, that he had eaten breakfast and eaten dinners always followed by ice cream. All these things add up to an enormous gift that you all, as a care home gave to Arnold in the last few months of his life. That is exactly how I wish to describe it- a gift- the very best gift he could ever have received: a life that was lives, a hope for tomorrow and the tender hand of care when he needed it.

I have nothing but high esteem for all the work the staff at Hengoed Care do for my father. This includes the grounds men, maintenance, cleaners, care assistants, nursing staff and management team. The care they provide shows such a homely and friendly environment which I would fully recommend to anyone.

It is endearing to see my mothers face light up when she sees the carers, she knows them and recognises them straight away and you can tell she feel at home and safe.
