My mother was taken into care on the 27/02/21 for one month and then onto a permanent care home. My mother was tired and frail when we admitted her and had lost her usual chirp and had to be arm-linked to walk safely. Although it was a sad day for our family and many tears shed, the staff at
Elmhurst greeted her as a long-lost relative, they put my sister and me at ease and were completely professional with a friendly approach. Everything was explained to us in detail and although we never actually entered the building because of the flu we had plenty of window visits and noticed how mum was becoming much happier and physically stronger over the weeks. Mum suffers from dementia but did manage to remember some of her activities, over the month mum would cut our visits short because she wanted to get back to the activities, this, of course, made us feel great about her care but unfortunately, she had to move on. Lovely place and brilliant staff.

My husband has only been going to Elmhurst for a short while he just loves it. All the staff are brilliant nothing is too much trouble. All the staff are just great. I never thought my husband would stay away from home, he only stays one or two nights but when I go to pick him up, he always asks me
if he can stay longer. The bedrooms are beautiful. Thank you all for making my husband so happy.

Elmhurst short stay care home is very comfortable and clean. The staff are caring and friendly at all times. My mother stayed for several weeks and became very fond of the staff. The food is lovely and the rooms are modern and clean. I would not hesitate to recommend Elmhurst as my mother enjoyed
her stay there. We have experience of other respite care homes but Elmhurst is by far the best in my mother's opinion (and she is very fussy).
