Oaklands, nestled in the attractive parish of Laindon on the outskirts of Basildon, provides a nurturing haven for older adults with residential and dementia care needs. Whether residents require convalescent support, long-term assistance, or short-term care, our compassionate environment ensures they receive the highest attention and kindness.

Offering 51 well-appointed en-suite bedrooms, Oaklands, is designed for resident comfort. Some rooms feature lovely views of our gardens, enhancing the serene atmosphere. Each room includes essential amenities like a call bell, a TV point, and Wi-Fi for staying connected. We encourage residents to personalise their space with cherished items, creating a comforting "home away from home."

We take pride in our welcoming communal spaces, which are thoughtfully designed to promote relaxation and encourage social connections. Our spacious lounges, inviting dining rooms, and a tranquil quiet room provide comfortable areas for residents to unwind. Additionally, our hair salon offers residents a chance to indulge in self-care, while our beautifully landscaped garden provides outdoor spaces to enjoy the natural beauty and fresh air.

Residents can enjoy activities like gardening, baking, singing, quizzes, and arts and crafts. We also host community events, such as coffee mornings, for residents and their families. Additionally, we have a minibus for day trips to nearby attractions like garden centres, cafes, and parks.

At Oaklands, our culinary team prepares fresh meals using locally sourced ingredients. Residents can choose to dine in communal areas or in their rooms, with three meals provided daily, along with a mid-morning snack and afternoon tea.
