Oakwood House is situated in the peaceful village of Colney, next to an historic Norman church. Purpose-built to the highest standard, the home has spacious public areas, and a large sunny lounge on each floor overlooking mature gardens. There is a licensed bar to residents where they may meet to chat, or to entertain guests. Each room offers a high level of comfort, all are en-suite for privacy and convenience, and many also have views over the gardens. Daily activities are offered, including painting, board games and gentle exercise. There is also a dedicated activities room where existing hobbies are encouraged and new ones taken up. Trips are arranged to Norwich (only three miles away), the coast and the beautiful Norfolk Broads. There is a library and a quiet lounge for those who prefer to read, enjoy a quiet game of cards or catch up on correspondence, while on sunny days residents can enjoy the gardens. Oakwood House also offers nursing dementia care.

Bupa Care Homes

All our homes offer the quality of care you'd expect from Bupa. We employ dedicated, well trained staff, to provide 24-hour care in a professional and respectful way.

Above all, each resident is treated as an individual, and able to exercise choice in all aspects of their care. We encourage as full and active a lifestyle as possible, with rules and regulations kept to minimum, and visitors are welcome at any time.

Each resident has their own regularly updated care plan. Additional services such as speech therapy or physiotherapy can always be arranged, as can opticians and dentists appointments.

All rooms have television points and safety features such as smoke detectors and 24-hour nurse-call systems. Residents are welcome to bring personal belongings and small items of furniture, and pets are allowed in some homes.

Each home has an activities organiser to provide stimulating and interesting activities, taking account of residents' interests. There is always a varied menu of fresh, nutritious food, but special dietary or cultural needs will always be catered for.

Fees vary for each home, room and the level of care needed. Please contact the home manager directly to get an individualised quote.

Why not visit your local home and find out what sets Bupa care homes apart?
