Review from Vanessa D (Daughter of Resident) published on 28 July 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
There are no fancy tablecloths, china or curtains in Emsworth House, there is, caring, empathetic and supportive staff who support the residents in their care. My Mother is receiving her end of life care there at the moment, we are kept fully up to date with all aspects of her well being. The most important thing for our family is that my mother is shown kindness, surrounded by people that are making her last few days a happy, relaxing and calm environment. This is without doubt what she is experiencing.
I have seen the way other residents have been treated whilst I am there and all the residents are treated with compassion and given dignity, which is very important. They have their own 'nail salon' where they are able to be pampered. The visitors are treated with respect and understanding in what is a very difficult time, the staff seem to know exactly what to say and when to say it. I highly recommend Emsworth House, they have provided a calm place for mum in her last few weeks.

Review from Christine S (Daughter of Resident) published on 27 May 2025 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
My father spent the last two months of his life being cared for by Emsworth House Nursing Home. We as a family so wish he could have been allocated a bed there before, but he was in and out of hospital so much, poor man.
I would like to say that all the staff without exception were, kind, caring, attentive, not only to my dad, but to my 90 year old mother who visited him every day. In his last few hours, he was shown love, kindness, dignity and respect and when he passed we were not rushed in anyway. I have nothing but praised for the experience we had at Emsworth House. It was far superior to the care and attention shown at some of the other 'nursing homes' where we paid thousands of pounds for respite care. Thank you Emsworth House.

Review from Yvonne B (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 August 2021 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Mum was moved here to be closer to family and to make visiting easier. I have to say; only place your loved one here if it is your only option. It just felt as if only a few members of staff really did their best, for Mum and in support of family. Mum died there too. Mum needed specialist care with bedsores, after having a long stay in hospital because of Covid. She was 88. We felt early on that she would never be able to recover. It would have been too much to move her again; although we did make enquiries. Just wish we left her in the original council nursing home that was further away.
