Our dad moved to Emily Jackson House for some respite care after a week in hospital, following some falls at his home. We were undecided whether he should eventually return home or stay in long term care. Having seen dad spend 4 weeks in care, we noticed a big change in his attitude to life and an improvement
in his general health. He is eating and drinking really well, is mixing with the other residents and seems much happier being around more people. The carers and all the other staff have been really friendly, professional, helpful and caring towards dad and also us. We looked at other care homes locally but decided dad was in the best place that he could be. Thanks to all the team.

Our mum spent 4 weeks in respite care. The management team and majority of staff were brilliant (one member, who has since left was not so great). The bedroom was very small - hence the reason we moved from here to another facility long term but perhaps there are larger rooms. The decor is pleasant
but tired. The facility lacks some of the communal areas that other large homes have, meaning the activities program is more limited. Felt the reception area could be more 'open' - the window often partially closed. Excellent food, particularly the cake.

Reply from Susan Deol, General Manager at Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home

My husband has been a resident in this care home for nearly a year. In that time, he has definitely improved in his social skills, speech, attitude and sociability. This is all due to the excellent care he has received. He has enjoyed the activities and a few trips, made some new friends and tells me
he is happy and more content.

The staff at Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home were so kind and supportive to my mother. She arrived after falling in her flat and was confused and often difficult with the staff. The staff were wonderful at encouraging her to participate in activities and to make her feel part of the family
there.
My mother became ill in November and again, the staff were fantastic in the care they showed my mother and the support they gave me and my family during this very difficult period. The nursing staff were particularly good at explaining what was happening and were very kind with her throughout.
I cannot thank them enough for all they did!

My mum spent September 2024 at Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home to undergo an NHS Continuing Healthcare Assessment. It was our family's first experience of a care home and we were very anxious. Mum had complex needs, had suffered a stroke and was in late stage dementia and had trouble communicating.
We needn't have worried. The staff were amazing from the start. They were very respectful, compassionate and attentive to both her and to the other patients. One nurse, in particular, was good. Mum had been in hospital for over a month before going to the home and the staff/resident ratio was much higher at the home. Communication was excellent: they were always able to give us details about how Mum was getting on and they contacted us promptly to let us know if there were any issues in her care.

I am happy to see my father thriving in Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home after a very difficult period trying to find somewhere he could settle.
The staff are kind, responsive and friendly. Organised activities are increasing but there's no pressure for those (like my father) who sometimes
would rather relax with a newspaper or the TV!
The best recommendation I can give is that after eighteen months in the home, he looks as healthy as he has in years and is settled and peaceful.
Thank you to everyone at Emily Jackson.

My father came into the home in October 2023. At the time, he was quiet and withdrawn. He is now a changed man, he is happy most of the time, his care has been excellent and compassionate, as he is blind as well as diabetic.

I would not recommend Emily Jackson home at all. There is very little care or compassion for the residents upstairs at the home, I believe this is all because of the management, especially the main manager. He didn't have any compassion for us as a family and clearly, some of the residents receive the
same, if they seem to be harder work. The smell hits you every time you step out of the lift. My dad would be left days without being changed and weeks without being showered as he declined but given he has dementia this was most days. Dementia specialists they definitely are not. We worried every day about his care, arriving sometimes to find his feet black with dirt, walking around wet. Our visits were just to do his self-care
He has been lucky enough to move and the difference is amazing. He is showered daily, clean, clothed, treated like a human being, being shown care within the first week. I believe the previous manager was amazing but this manager leaves a lot to be desired.

My sister was Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home for palliative care on 19/08/2024. In that short period, she was treated with respect and courtesy. All staff were friendly and polite. Being a private person, she did not wish to participate in the various social activities provided. This view
was respected and adhered to.
The care that she received in the final hours of her life was excellent and peaceful.

Reply from Robert Dura-May, General Manager at Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home

Thank you for your kind review, it is very supportive of the excellent care we provide at the home. This review will boost staff and I will mention in a staff meeting next week your lovely words. Having a family that works with the home really supports the care given and in a manner that is reflective of meeting the needs of the individual, our thoughts are with you and the family.

Mum has been in Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home for one and a half years and still, I have to ask if she can be washed, also hair wash.
Her room is often grubby, I clean her bedside table every visit.
She is self-funding, also only given cereal for breakfast, lunch, dinner and still paying

Mum was placed with Emily Jackson for 4 weeks following a long spell in hospital.
Staff were kind and attentive. They took time to support us and listen to our concerns.
All staff in whatever role showed attention to detail and thoroughness - all with steady compassion.
The facilities are excellent
so Mum was very comfortable.

Thank you so much to all the lovely and caring staff. You cared for Mum so wonderfully well. You cared and visited her at home beforehand and so quickly once she was referred. You were kind and respectful at all times. I loved how welcoming I was in the home at any time. I loved that me and Dad could
have lunch with Mum on a Sunday. The food was really delicious. The medical attention she needed she to and was cared for beautifully at the end.

Current Review Score: 9.6 (9.593)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.6 (9.593) out of 10 for Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 29 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.593 for Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (259 Excellents x 5) + (58 Goods x 4) + (8 Satisfactorys x 3) + (10 Poors x 2) + (9 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 344 Ratings = 4.593

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Barchester Emily Jackson House Care Home is based on 27 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11, which has been reached with 27 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
