The Oaks Care Home

Welcome to The Oaks Care Home's page. We are located in Colchester, Essex. The Oaks has a beautifully decorated and homely feel.

The Oaks care home in Colchester provides expert, warm, person-centred care for up to 61 older people who require dementia, nursing or residential support. There’s always a full diary of fun social events and activities, thanks to our dedicated activities co-ordinators. Mealtimes are carefully planned with delicious, fresh food cooked on-site and our fully trained, friendly team of carers and nurses are on hand 24/7, whenever needed. The home is spacious and with a warm and welcoming atmosphere, bedrooms are beautifully decorated, while the coffee lounge, cinema lounge and open-plan dining room offer the perfect place for you to relax or socialise in. We have the added benefit of being surrounded by large gardens and well-manicured lawns, which were created by award winning gardener, author and lecturer, Beth Chatto.

🎗️ If you're popping along next Friday (24th October) don't forget it's for Breast Cancer Awareness 🎗️

We have a donation point set up along with some games - if you don't have an entirely Pink ensemble don't worry! Even just a splash of Pink spreads awareness!

This Thursday Tony managed to get his winter wardrobe ready (thank you Primark), followed by a side of Pie, Mash and Liquor - courtesy of Manze's Pie And Mash!
A lovely adventure, and a great way to introduce Tony to the local area for the first time!

🎉 The party was a success! 🎉

Thank you to everyone who turned up, and to all those who helped put everything together!

It was a lovely way to showcase the new decking in Emerald House, in dedication to one of our much missed residents, Martin. This wouldn't be possible without the amazing donation that Martin's family made in his name to help improve the unit, and so we are eternally thankful to you as well!

It was also to signify the official opening of The Oaks Care Home once again!
