I cannot recommend Freshfields enough, the care my grandmother receives is outstanding. The staff are incredible caring considerate kind nothing is to much trouble the facilities and surroundings are beautiful. The dining room is so welcoming and the meals are delicious with a wide range of choices
.
The activities on offer daily are brilliant always something different for everyone and the day trips are great! It's like home from home at Freshfields, my grandmother has made some lovely friendships with other residents. She is so happy here and knowing she is, gives me such peace of mind.

Our father has become more difficult to deal with recently and requires a lot of additional care. Words cannot really convey the care and attention the team at Freshfields Care Home has dedicated to trying to help our dad during his stay. The home is very clean and tidy and the food is excellent. Dad
is treated with complete dignity and respect.
Our thanks to all the team at Freshfields for your dedication to all the residents and the love you show them all.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Thank goodness we chose to reserve our judgement - despite the CQC report, which says this residential care home ‘requires improvement’ - which turned out to be simply because in 2020, they were not computerised!
My 99 year old mother-in-law became a resident at Freshfields in January of this year.
My husband and I have been very impressed with the outstanding care and attention that she has received during the last 9 months or so of her life.
The manager and her deputy are exceptional in their duty to both residents and staff, making this residential home very special indeed. The atmosphere is so homely and you are always made to feel welcome. Many of the dedicated staff are long-serving, which always says so much for the management.
Never an easy job caring for elderly/frail folk, but at Freshfields it is carried out with great care and understanding. Thank you so much Freshfields.

My mother moved to Emerson Court in September 2022 from another care home. The difference was unbelievable. The care, companionship, fun and atmosphere at Emerson are amazing. My mum is always laughing, singing and dancing with the carers. It feels like a home from home and I cannot recommend Emerson
Court enough to anyone else in my situation. An absolutely amazing home!

Freshfields has been a home away from home for my father-in-law. It was the ‘homely’ feel that was the deciding factor when it came to choosing Freshfields. The staff are very accommodating to his needs and provide a really friendly and personal/kind touch to the care they give. The activities and food
are particularly a hit with my father-in-law, and his room and the rest of the home are always clean and comfortable. Thank you to all the staff at Freshfields for providing such good care.

Can’t recommend enough what an excellent home this is. All staff are very friendly caring and helpful. Mum was there for nearly 2 years and we couldn’t have wished for any better care for her especially during these difficult times. We were always made welcome with refreshments and the end of life
care she was given helped Mum and our family so much.

My mother has Alzheimer's and has been a resident at Emerson Court for 3 years. I can honestly say that I wouldn't want her anywhere else. It is just like a 'home from home' with all the added care and attention that she needs. Staff are very approachable and friendly and keep us fully up to date with
any concerns they may have about mum's health and well-being.

Emerson Court Residential Home

from Fiona A (Niece of Resident) published on 21 July 2021
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Emerson Court is a very good care home. It is always fresh and clean, and all the staff are friendly and helpful. When I was able to visit, the meals always looked delicious. The garden is beautiful. I can ring at any time with a query, and staff can always answer it straight away. I love the fact that
it is small and friendly, so I know nearly all the staff personally. My aunt passed away there a few weeks ago, and the manager really went "the extra mile" in looking after her and keeping me informed. Thank you to all of them.

from Joanne K (Daughter of Resident) published on 17 June 2021
Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Mum has been at Emerson Court for almost 4-years now. From day one, the staff have been incredibly supportive and understanding of Mum's needs. There is a really homely atmosphere there, and residents' rooms are comfy. Mum can be difficult, and the staff simply seem to take it in their stride and deal
with it - nothing phases them. Mum has always seemed happy to be there, and it is good to see her have a laugh and joke with the staff, who obviously really care about her. The contact and support from management are fantastic, and I know that should I have any concerns, they will deal with them immediately. I have recommended Emerson Court to my neighbour recently and wouldn't hesitate to do so to anyone else! Thank you

After the very very difficult decision being made that nan needed to move into a care home, we put all our efforts into finding somewhere that was perfect for her. We looked at over 20 care homes in the wider area and Freshfields was the only one we were willing to let her stay in. It feels like a house,
not a typical care home and is lovely from the staff to the place itself. We are so so grateful that nan was able to get a room here and to know that she is safe and taken care of. Thanks to all.

I and my family are extremely happy with our mum being at Freshfields. It is always a welcoming atmosphere. We feel our mum is safe and well cared for. We particularly like that meal times are shared by all the residents in a civilised manner. My mums medical well being is always addressed. The food
served is of a very good standard and staff and management always enter into any celebrations with imaginative decorations, entertainment and excellent food and drinks. It is a happy place.

We were recommended Freshfields by a family member and we have never been disappointed with how our mother's needs have been cared for mentally and physically and all of her health requirements and hospital appointments included. It was first stated in our interview that our mum's needs were their first
priority and that has been completely executed in a first-class way. All the staff and carers welcome us with a positive attitude.

My Mum has been a resident at Fresh Fields for eighteen months now and in that time I have found the staff very welcoming.
I usually join Mum for lunch and we're always offered tea and cake in the afternoon.
It's always clean and tidy.
Also at the moment, the lounge is being redecorated.
