About Us

Chestnut Court Care Home in Dagenham provides nursing care for older people, including many residents living with dementia. Qualified nurses are here throughout the day and night, which means health needs are met on site by people who know the resident rather than by strangers at short notice.

Dementia care is a large part of what we do, and we try to do it properly. That means learning who somebody was and still is, keeping to the rhythms that make sense to them, using the surroundings to reduce confusion, and treating distress as communication rather than as behaviour to be managed. Families often say the hardest part is feeling they have handed over someone they love, so we work hard to keep them closely involved.

The practical nursing work is a matter of attention to detail: medication, skin care, mobility, nutrition and comfort. Meals matter here, and so do time outdoors and company for those who want it.

Respite stays are available for people needing nursing care for a short period.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good.

You are welcome to visit at an ordinary time, see how the day runs and ask our nurses whatever you would like to know.
