About Lambwood Heights Care Home
Lambwood Heights is a nursing home in Chigwell, providing care for adults who need skilled nursing alongside help with the practical parts of the day. Having registered nurses on duty at every hour means that changes in someone's health are noticed and dealt with here, and that families do not have to worry about what happens overnight or at the weekend. We care for older people, adults living with dementia and people with physical disabilities, including younger adults. Before anyone moves in we take time to understand their health, their history and how they wish to live, and we record all of it so that whoever is on shift knows the person and not just the needs. Good nursing care should still feel like home. Meals are freshly prepared and we will make something else if nothing appeals. Residents decide when to get up, when to rest and whether they want company. We arrange music, gentle exercise, gardening, crafts and local outings, and we are equally content for someone to spend an afternoon quietly in their room. Chigwell and the surrounding part of Essex is where many of our residents and their families come from, and relatives are welcome to visit whenever they wish, to join a meal or to take their family member out. If you are considering a nursing home, please arrange to come and see us, or simply turn up. We would rather be judged on an ordinary afternoon than on a prepared tour.
