Welcome to our house
We are safely welcoming new residents at Pratt House, residential care home in Amersham.
Enjoy peace of mind with our Covid-19 safe moving in procedures and take comfort in knowing you're loved ones are receiving a high level of person-centred care 24-hours a day.
Our dementia friendly care home offers a relaxed, inviting environment, designed to provide comfort, security and enhanced wellbeing to all residents, as well as a range of benefits, exceeding your care expectations.
We look forward to welcoming you to Pratt House.
Nestled in the scenic Chiltern Hills, surrounded by stunning greenbelt countryside, Pratt House is a dementia friendly care home situated on the outskirts of the vibrant market town of Amersham.
Set in its own beautiful grounds, in a quiet residential location, Pratt House has 29 en-suite rooms, many overlooking our attractive garden and surrounding fields. Some of our rooms are able to accomodate couples who wish to remain together.
Although we can provide furniture, we encourage you to bring your own furniture and personal items from home to customise your room and make it feel like home from the day you move in.
Completing our home is a communal lounge, salon and communal dining room where residents can enjoy three meals a day prepared by our fantastic catering team, Ian and Jane. If you have any specific dietary requirements our team will adapt menus to suit and liaise with you to make sure there is always something on the menu which you will love. Take a look at the range of delicious meals on our new menu.
We also have a spacious garden filled with beautiful flowers and ample seating so you can enjoy the fresh air and relax in the outdoors whilst catching up with family and friends. New this year is our summer house, a tranquil oasis in our garden, perfect for a spot of afternoon tea.
At Abbeyfield we have extensive experience caring for those with dementia and understand it can be a big change to move into a dementia friendly care home. That’s why we tailor our support to each individual, finding out what they enjoy and what approach to care works for them. This means we can continuously adapt our care plans if your needs change over time and ensure all of our residents continue to live meaningful and fulfilling lives. Our dedicated team of staff provide 24-hour care and many of our staff have been here for over 20 years meaning you get continuity of care and support.
Being part of the community is an important value for Abbeyfield and we have established excellent relationships with pre-schools, churches, GPs and district nurses.
Talk to us about respite stays

At Pratt House our respite stays include:
- 24/7 care support from our qualified and friendly staff
- Daily activities
- Nutritious meals served daily (dietary requirements can be catered for)
- Housekeeping and linen service
