About 207 Goodmayes Lane
We are a residential care home on Goodmayes Lane in Ilford. We support older people and younger adults, including people living with dementia. The home is small in feel and we run it that way. People bring their own things, arrange their rooms as they like, come down when they wake rather than when a rota says so, and spend the day in company or on their own as they prefer. There is no requirement to join in with anything. Dementia care takes patience and it takes knowing the person, so we spend time learning about the work somebody did, the family they raised and the routines that steady them. We do not correct people about where they are or what year it is. We meet them where they are and find something worth doing together. Our staff know residents well enough to notice when somebody is quieter than usual, eating less or simply not themselves, and those early signs are what stop small problems becoming serious ones. We keep families properly informed and would rather ring early than explain later. Visitors are welcome whenever they want to come. We work with GPs, district nurses and social workers where they are involved, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. Please contact us if you would like to come and see the home.
