Vi and John Rubens House
Personal, nursing, dementia and respite care
Care home for older people and people with dementia
Based in Redbridge, Vi and John Rubens House is one of Jewish Care’s largest homes – and the only one in the Redbridge area.
The home also offers a wide range of communal lounges and sitting areas, a synagogue, two gardens and a lovely hairdressing salon. There is also a smaller, separate lounge and dining room for people with dementia.
We celebrate Shabbat and all the Jewish festivals with the help of the local Jewish community.
Surrounding area
Valentines Park is just a few minutes away, as are the local shops of Gants Hill. The Ilford Exchange is also close by.

Two dedicated members of staff are responsible for the varied social activity programme, with the support of many committed volunteers. Residents who can are encouraged to spend the day out at either Jewish Care’s Redbridge Jewish Community Centre (Sinclair House) or The Dennis Centre, both of which have close ties with the home.
The Friends of Vi & John Rubens House raises money for the home through a variety of events such as bridge and quiz nights.
