    The working staff are very caring and loving. Management can be cold though. Doctor would miss my mothers appointments, disappointed in him in general. The older rooms really need renovation. I would have thought the non-dementia patients would have been moved into the newer wing.

    I would have to be very picky to find fault with Emmaus. Very good caring staff, giving great care to my dad.

    I was here because i lost my purse and a wonderful man called Jason Cramp had found it and he worked here. The reception was very tidy and presentable.
