Oakwood House Care Home in Norwich is dedicated to providing specialised care for a wide range of conditions, ensuring that services extend to adults of all ages, beyond just the elderly.
Its dedicated team is experienced in supporting residents with learning disabilities, Parkinson's disease, Motor Neurone Disease, and those recovering from strokes.
It also offers end of life care, ensuring a compassionate and seamless transition for those in need of palliative care, as well as supporting adults of all ages who require specialist nursing and residential care.
Home manager Emma Hopkins said: “We understand that conditions like Parkinson’s or Motor Neurone Disease can sometimes make people feel isolated or alienated.
"Here at Oakwood, we provide a welcoming, supportive environment where no one needs to feel alone. Our goal is to foster an inclusive, vibrant community where everyone can find companionship, explore new interests, and build meaningful relationships.”
