Emmaus House

from Jane L (Daughter of Resident) published on 20 January 2026
Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been at Emmaus for over two years now and really values the individual care, and genuine 'home from home ' feel - this is typified by the use of 'our Emmaus family' rather than being a 'resident.' This wonderful place offers the opportunities for the development of new and significant
friendships in later life, and at the heart of this is the firm, compassionate and inclusive commitment to faith - modelled by the carers and management, in all they provide for this family. My mother said recently,' Nothing is too much trouble ' both in terms of her physical, intellectual, and emotional needs, and that she feels respected, and listened to.
From our family's perspective, we always receive a genuine and warm welcome, and love being able to join with the Emmaus family for special events and meals taken with our loved one. I can see just what a positive effect the overall experience of Emmaus has had on my mother's life .I thoroughly recommend this loving and unique place.

Uncle Leslie was a resident at Emmaus house for 9 years till his passing in September during this time he was treated with respect and care,Emmaus has a reputation for the quality of its food and the way it is presented.
The care team have always been attentive to Leslie's needs physically and emotionally
and the activities have helped a great deal,Leslie always had a strong connection to his church and his devotions have been well catered for by the team and visiting ministers.

Emmaus House

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Following a decline in Mum's health the family and GP agreed it was best to look into care options for her safety and wellbeing. As next of kin I was overwhelmed with information and after some resource discovered Emmaus House as a possible option. Emmaus House is in a beautiful location opposite Valley
Gardens, a park Mum loves and as a family we grew up in the local area.


I visited Emmaus House and was welcomed by the team and quickly felt at ease and all my questions were answered, the Christian ethos is evident without being overbearing and the team clearly are passionate about the care they provide.


Mum has now lived at Emmaus house on respite care for 6 weeks, her health has improved significantly and she has engaged well with the fantastic routine of great food, company and care. The transition from living at home was always going to be emotional and difficult for Mum and the family, Emmaus House team have been incredible at every step of the journey.

Reply from CHRISSIE Medway Steel, Manager at Emmaus HouseThank you very much for taking the time to review our care home Tony, we have been delighted to welcome your Mum at Emmaus House. I shall share your feedback with the team. Many thanks

There is a most wonderful atmosphere at Emmaus House that my husband and I were aware of from our very first visit. It is obviously run on the Christian ethos of do unto others as you would have them do unto you. Everyone is so happy, caring, skilled, knowledgeable and goes the extra mile. We are really
happy and thankful that my husband has a wonderful home here. The care is outstanding. Thank you so much you give to everyone. PS. Plus, the food is superb.

My auntie is a long term resident of Emmaus House. She has enjoyed a very happy, contented and safe life in the home. As the years have passed by, she has received the increased care and support appropriate to her health needs. Enthusiastic staff provide numerous and varied activities, giving vital
stimulation and lots of laughter! Emmaus is a very welcoming home maintained to a very high standard, a true community for which we are very grateful.

My Godmother was a resident at Emmaus House for over two years up to her death in November, and I was always happy with the care that she received, and the family atmosphere of the home. When visiting, we often took part in organised activities, which was most enjoyable. The staff were always friendly
and helpful and I would certainly recommend Emmaus House based on my Godmother's experience there.
Reply from CHRISSIE Medway Steel, Manager at Emmaus HouseThank you so much for your positive review and kind words. It was a pleasure to know your Godmother and get to know you too. Please do not hesitate to call into our home for a coffee if you are ever in the area. Best regards.

My aunt lived at Emmaus House for several years. She died there a year ago after she and all her family received excellent care and support throughout her time at Emmaus House.
The ongoing care shown to our family is wonderful. They are always there for support to us, and we still feel part of the
Emmaus Family. I am taking a friend, (whose mother also was cared for and died in Emmaus House) with me to visit Emmaus House as we have been invited to join the residents and team before Christmas.
Thank you for this follow-up care Emmaus House.

Prior to my in-law moving into Emmaus House its reputation had preceded it. On moving in and over the time she has been there, their reputation has been confirmed.
The quality of accommodation and services are excellent. The staff and care provided is of a high quality. It is a very personable environment
for very needy people.
As a regular visitor I am treated with kindness and respect and see firsthand the love and care extended to service users, visitors and staff alike.

There is no better place than Emmaus House for its family-centred approach that actively involves the residents in every aspect of their care. It is a truly amazing place where everyone on the staff goes above and beyond in their care for the residents and makes visitors so welcome.
It is a great
comfort to know my mother-in-law receives such care and is so happy to be at Emmaus House, but their whole approach to care has reached new heights because my wife and I both commented after a recent visit that she looks so vibrant and confident. The approach to care really is enabling my mother-in-law to flourish at Emmaus.

I have been so impressed with the care and friendliness of all the staff at Emmaus House. It has been a great relief to me to find such a welcoming and professional care home for my relative. The ambience and facilities are so good, and all the residents are treated with respect and dignity. I have
also enjoyed taking part in the activities and events. The management and staff work very hard to arrange celebrations and make everyone feel included. Thank you, Emmaus House.

Mum has been at Emmaus House since last December. We managed to keep her in her own home in London, living independently, until she was ninety-five. But, when my husband and I moved to Harrogate, we knew this was the right time to find a new permanent home for Mum and Emmaus House has been the right
decision. She’s finally getting used to being looked after and constantly ‘complains’ that the food is too good! The staff are extremely kind and caring; I visit Mum virtually every day so I know this to be true.
Reply from Chrissie Medway Steel, Manager at Emmaus HouseThank you for this lovely review of our care team and care home. Your mum is in the lounge, enjoying a birthday party with a fellow family member as I type this response to you! We are so pleased that she has settled in to her new home. Thank you again.

My husband and I, on visiting at Christmas, felt that Emmaus House Care Home had a very homely feel about it. The staff, professionals and volunteers all have a ready smile, are friendly and go about their work with lots of patience and understanding of the family they are caring for. This reflects
the Christian ethos of Emmaus House. Mum seems to have settled in to the House now and, with the encouragement of staff, has even started using her zimmer frame to move around! Great progress. Thanks to all!

My mum was initially placed here temporarily in Oct 2021 after a series of falls and it was clear that she could no longer cope with looking after herself in her own home. She immediately felt well cared for and fortunately, they were able to offer her a permanent place. Everyone - from the permanent
staff to the volunteers - is very friendly and caring and it really feels like there's a 'family' atmosphere when you visit. From the care team to the kitchen staff, cleaners and the management team, all take a real interest in the residents. A particular mention should go to the kitchen team as my mum says the meals are really good - and they make great cakes for everyone's birthdays too! There are lots of daily activities for residents to take part in if they wish and my mum's making new friends which is reassuring to see. It's been a big change for someone who was so determined to stay independent but I'm really happy that she has settled in and I know that she's being well cared for.
Reply from Chrissie Medway Steel, Manager at Emmaus HouseDear Roy, thank you for such a positive review, I will share this with the team at our meeting today. We are grateful that you took the time to complete this review and, as you know, we adore having your mum living with us at Emmaus House! Thank you.

Dad arrived at Emmaus House in December after not being able to look after himself properly. A neighbour recommended Emmaus House and I am really glad they did. I wasn't sure how he would react but he has settled in really well and has been looked after and cared for with nothing too much bother. I
would like to thank all of the staff for their dedication to look after all the residents.
