About Oakdale
Tailored residential care supports older people at Oakdale who need help to live safely while retaining independence. Its registered scope includes care for older people and dementia, with personal support assessed before admission and reviewed with residents and relatives. A registered nurse is on duty 24 hours a day.
Dementia support recognises memory loss and disorientation while focusing on the individual. Residents can join activities and build social connections, and respite care is also available. Families considering a placement can arrange a tour or callback as they compare longer-term care options.

Questions families ask
How much does Oakdale cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Oakdale for its weekly fee. As a guide, Essex council paid on average £1,085 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
Who pays for a place in this home?
Ask Oakdale whether it takes residents funded by Essex council and what it charges people who pay for themselves. In England the council may help after a needs assessment and a financial assessment if savings and assets are below £23,250 (2026 to 2027 rules). People whose needs are mainly health needs may qualify for NHS Continuing Healthcare, which pays the full fee.
