About Oakleigh Lodge Residential Home
We at Oakleigh Lodge Residential Home are proud to offer a warm and welcoming residential care home in the heart of Hove, where older people and younger adults alike can feel truly at home. Nestled within the vibrant coastal community of Brighton and Hove, our setting combines the charm of this well loved South East town with the comfort and reassurance of dedicated residential care. Our home sits within the BN postcode area, benefitting from the gentle pace and character of Hove whilst remaining well connected to the wider Brighton and Hove community. Families visiting loved ones will find the surroundings familiar and accessible, with the seaside location offering a calming backdrop that many of our residents treasure. Inside, we aim to create an atmosphere that feels less like a facility and more like a genuine home, where personal touches, quiet corners, and shared spaces come together to support daily life with dignity. Our specialisms reflect the breadth of people we support. We provide older person care for those who need ongoing residential support with the routines of everyday life, whether that involves help with personal care, medication, mobility, or simply the reassurance of knowing that trained staff are always close by. We also welcome younger adults whose circumstances mean that a supportive residential setting is the right choice for them, offering an environment that respects individuality and encourages independence wherever possible. For families navigating a period of change, illness, or recovery, our respite care offers short term stays that provide peace of mind and a chance for carers at home to rest, knowing their loved one is in safe and attentive hands. In practice, this means our team takes time to get to know each resident as an individual. We build care around personal histories, preferences, routines, and relationships, because we believe good care begins with genuinely understanding the person in front of us. Families are welcomed as partners in that journey, kept informed, listened to, and involved in the decisions that matter. We are pleased that our most recent CQC inspection, carried out in August 2025, resulted in an overall rating of Good, with Good ratings awarded across every one of the five key domains: Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led. For families, this consistent picture offers meaningful reassurance. It reflects a home where safety is taken seriously, where the care provided achieves positive outcomes, where kindness is at the heart of everyday interactions, where residents' changing needs are recognised and responded to, and where leadership sets a clear and compassionate tone throughout the team. Choosing a care home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the mix of emotions that comes with it. If you are exploring options for a loved one in Hove or the wider Brighton and Hove area, we warmly invite you to get in touch, ask questions, and see for yourself whether Oakleigh Lodge Residential Home feels like the right next chapter. We are here to listen, to guide, and to help you feel confident in whatever choice you make.
