Review from Johanna K (Daughter of Resident) published on 25 November 2022 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience
My dad stayed at Emerson Grange for four weeks of respite care. During his time there, we saw him thrive. He has dementia and was cared for by specialist staff in a safe and friendly environment. There were lots of activities offered to engage and stimulate Dad. He especially enjoyed the singing! A minibus was available to take residents out on trips locally, and I thought this was a lovely idea.
The staff were all amazing and treated Dad with kindness and respect. He was encouraged to be as independent as possible, and his privacy and dignity were considered at all times.
The variety of food offered at mealtimes was brilliant, with lots of healthy, tasty options. Our family were made welcome whenever we visited, and the staff were always happy to answer any queries we had.
It is a difficult decision to make when you place a parent into respite care, but after an initial visit to look around, and seeing the positive changes in Dad, I was reassured that we had made a great choice.

Highly recommend!

I was impressed from the moment I first walked through the door and haad no hesitation in putting my father into care here. My first impressions have proved correct as my father has received marvellous care. Any problems are quickly sorted by the management and communication is excellent. Also, no complaints from my father, who is particularly impressed with the food. Yes, I am happy with my father being here.

Recently visited my nan in Emerson Grange. It's a really beautiful home from the outside, and just as lovely on the inside. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming, and the care she receives has been great. The place is very clean and obviously looked after, and my nan is very happy there.

My brother-in-law thinks he's in a very posh hotel, likes all the attention given to him, and he is very happy. This week we were offered coffee and cakes; I wish we were offered coffee every time we visit. The Emerson Grange staff set a very high standard in every way. Well done.

Review from Danny B (Son of Resident) published on 3 March 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Mum has resided at Emerson Grange since December 20. She was at another care home previously and very unhappy and depressed. Since moving, the whole family has noticed a remarkable improvement in her wellbeing. Despite not being able to visit, with regular phone and Skype calls we can all see how happy she is. She says the staff are wonderful, treating her like their own family. The facilities available are superb and with activities, everyday mum is being kept busy and stimulated both physically and mentally. She comments on the choice and quality of the food with her only complaint being about the weight she is gaining! In all our dealings with the staff at Emerson, we have found them to be professional, caring and very passionate about the role they play in looking after our loved ones. There are cheaper options available but quality costs and if you want the very best for your relative we would not recommend Emerson Grange highly enough.

Review from John C (Son of Resident) published on 11 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

We consider the staff very dedicated, approachable, and caring. All individual staff seems to be happy in their work which must be difficult in the current times. We are always grateful that they come in and look after our mother. We are sorry that we are unable to visit the home, but the skype facility has been a great help to keep in touch. The staff are very helpful and keep us inform of any changes to her health and wellbeing. It is a shame that activities have had to be curtailed during the current pandemic but when they return we expect they will return to a good standard of varied experiences. We would highly recommend Emerson Grange albeit but we feel their charges are expensive when self-funding.

Review from S P (Daughter-in-law of Resident) published on 10 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

Moving into a care home is an anxious time for both the individual and family members. Our minds were quickly put at ease by the outstanding care and support that has been continuously demonstrated. In my view, the care team on the Windsor floor where mum has lived since September 2019 are professional, dedicated and always prepared to help and listen to any concerns. Dementia can be a very challenging and misunderstood illness, with mood swings, confusion and memory issues to cope with every single day. Knowing mum is cared for and her needs understood brings a huge amount of reassurance and comfort to our family. We know she retains her dignity and feels part of Windsor floor, taking part in activities or just watching her telly with a cuppa. Her safety and security in these difficult times has been of paramount importance to us. The complete team have done an amazing job keeping loved ones in touch and informed. We are grateful that Mum feels at home and happy at Emerson's.

Review from A W (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 February 2021 Submitted via Website
Overall Experience

One of the things that attracted us to Emersons was that the directors of the parent company (Cinnamon) were all experienced healthcare professionals from the NHS and would know the best ways to care for people living with particular physical and mental health needs. My Mum has been a resident on the dementia floor for 18 months. The care home is like a 5-star hotel, with wonderful facilities. The bedrooms are beautifully decorated, each with an ensuite wet room, rise and fall bed, TV and other fittings. The lounge areas are lovely with access to a secure balcony. The food is excellent and well presented. But of course, the main thing for us is the exceptional care that Mum receives. All the staff are professional, respectful, kind and caring. They have made huge efforts to encourage Mum to socialise and engage in the many activities that are run every day. We have seen a marked positive change in Mum's wellbeing and demeanour. It was absolutely the right decision for Mum to move here.

Overall Experience
I moved into Emerson Lodge in late Autumn 2019. The majority of the staff are good and care a lot about providing a service which is friendly and effective.

On the rare occasion when a function does not meet expectations, the residents are encouraged to discuss the problem with them so that corrective steps may be taken. The management should receive a big thank you for responding quickly and effectively to prevent staff and residents succumbing to Covid-19.

Overall Experience

The home is extremely well run and is comfortable. I am a bit disabled and so have to rely on the carers and nurses heavily most of the time. This is a good relationship. I am finding it difficult to write but the main point is I feel my needs are covered. However, I occasionally feel stressed due to absence in care.

Damilola Baiyewu
Damilola BaiyewuJob Title:Head of Care & Registered ManagerJoined: 2024

What I Do:

In May 2022, I made the significant decision to join Cinnamon as the Care Service Manager, a choice that has since proven to be the most rewarding in my career. Within the company, I was fortunate to be promoted to Head of Care/Registered Manager.

As Head of Care/Registered Manager, I am responsible for overseeing the complete care process for our residents, starting from the preadmission phase. My primary goal is to ensure that each resident’s care journey begins with a strong foundation, allowing us to deliver personalized, compassionate, and high-quality care.

My role at Emerson Grange presents an exciting and inspiring challenge. I am committed to bringing my expertise, experience, and dedication to enhancing the well-being of our residents while upholding the highest standards of care. My focus is on ensuring that each resident enjoys a dignified and fulfilling quality of life. I am enthusiastic about contributing to the continued success of Emerson Grange as a leader in UK care services.

My Experience:

My healthcare career began in 2007 when I started working as a healthcare assistant within the National Health Service (NHS). This role provided me with invaluable hands-on experience and laid the foundation for my future in healthcare.

With a commitment to furthering my education and expertise, I completed a Bachelor of Science in Nursing at Greenwich University, gaining essential knowledge and skills for delivering high-quality patient care. To expand my understanding of public health, I also earned a Post Graduate Certificate in Public Health from the University of Sunderland. This advanced qualification has enriched my perspective on healthcare management and service delivery.

Throughout my time with Cinnamon, I have gained extensive experience as a Care Service Manager, where I have embraced the company’s vision and values. This continuity has enabled me to transition smoothly into my current role as Head of Care/Registered Manager, where I am committed to fostering high standards of care for all residents.

About Me:

I am fortunate to be married and a proud parent of three wonderful children who continually inspire and motivate me in both my personal and professional life. Beyond my work and family, I enjoy pursuing creative hobbies such as design, where I take pleasure in the process of bringing ideas to life. I also have a passion for party planning, finding joy in organizing memorable events that bring happiness to others.

Aadil Baig
Aadil BaigJob Title:Support Services ManagerJoined: 2017
What I do:

Having had the pleasure of seeing this development from bricks and mortar to what it is today, and having often been the first point of contact at Emerson over the years, I am able to showcase our development and give an insight into the fantastic lifestyle we offer.

I am responsible for all aspects of the non-care operations in the development and am here to facilitate our lifestyle offering to our residents, apartment owners and their families and friends.

My experience:

I joined Cinnamon with over a decade of experience in both corporate and independent residential estate agencies, managing various departments over the years, from frontline Sales & Lettings to Property Management.

About me:

I am a proud husband and a father to two beautiful daughters, and I enjoy spending as much time as possible with my family both at home and abroad, sharing our love of travel. I am an avid sports fan and in my spare time can often be found on the cricket field, on the golf course or watching American Football.

Aileen Nimmo
Aileen NimmoJob Title:Resident Service AdvisorJoined: 2021
What I do:

As a Resident Services Advisor, I support families who are considering a change in their current living situation, sometimes as a choice and sometimes due to necessity. My role is both rewarding and fulfilling and brings me great satisfaction as no two days are ever the same, just as no two people are ever the same.

My aim is to support families to make the decision that is right for them and their loved ones. I appreciate that moving, whether downsizing to one of our apartments or into our care home, is a highly emotional experience, and I support and guide our residents and their families through the process, both offering advice and ensuring a smooth and timely move.

My experience:

I have been working in the care industry for over 20 years. My initial role as an activity coordinator provided me with the wonderful opportunity to get to know residents and learn about them as individuals. I have worked both regionally and at the home level in a variety of roles. As a member of the Emerson Park team, I endeavour to continue with my commitment to supporting residents, their families and my colleagues in ensuring that our home is a great place to live and work.

About me

I am lucky to have a large family around me, and when I am spending time away from work, I love to enjoy the company of those I love. I enjoy gardening, walking, and reading. I am a secret twitcher and can get overly excited when I see a rare bird.
