About Oakfield House
Oakfield House provides residential, respite and day care for older people and people living with dementia. Support ranges from help with mobility and minimal personal care to more substantial daily assistance, with each care package shaped around individual needs.
The home has 28 bedrooms across two floors, including en-suite rooms, plus shared dining and lounge spaces and a conservatory. Respite stays can last for a short or longer period, giving carers time away while their loved one remains supported. Day guests can visit for activities, company and personal care, making the home relevant to both permanent residents and people needing structured daytime support. Day care enables clients to enjoy activities and company while receiving support.

Questions families ask
Do they offer day care?
Yes. Day care lets clients attend for activities and company while receiving support, including personal care when required.
Can they provide short-term respite care?
Yes. Their respite care is available for as short or as long a period as the resident would like to stay, giving caregivers a break while support continues.
What level of care can residents receive?

How much does Oakfield House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask Oakfield House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Kent council paid on average £1,096 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.
