Life at Heathlands Care Home In Chingford

At our care home, your daily life is guided by your own preferences and choices. While there is a gentle routine in place to ensure every resident receives the personalised care and support they need, we believe that no two days should feel the same. You have the freedom to decide how you start your morning, when and where you enjoy your meals, and how you spend your time throughout the day. Our dedicated team is here to support you in living your life exactly as you wish, with dignity, comfort, and independence.

Our Rooms & Suites

Heathlands has 84 generously sized ensuite bedrooms spread over three floors. Each is equipped with an adjustable automatic bed with a handset control for your comfort, a wardrobe, lockable bedside cabinet, chest of drawers/dressing table, cosy armchair, a nurse-call system, TV and free Wi-Fi. To help you feel at home from day one we encourage you and your family to personalise your room with photos as well as favourite ornaments and small items of furniture.

Many of our bright, comfortable rooms have large windows with attractive views, and some ground- floor rooms also have doors that open out onto our secure garden. If you have green fingers you can create your own potted garden or hang baskets filled with favourite flowers.

Dining

At Heathlands, we strive to make mealtimes a truly enjoyable, unhurried, and relaxing experience. We have ‘protected mealtimes’ and minimise calls and appointments from health professionals and other visitors between midday and 2pm, allowing residents the chance to dine at their own pace and savour their meals. Sharing a meal is a cherished part of life here, and we encourage residents who wish to do so to join others in our elegant dining room, or to enjoy the company of visiting family members. For those who prefer a more private setting, meals can be served at your own table or brought to the comfort of your room, whether that’s breakfast in bed or a late-night snack. The choice is always yours, ensuring every dining experience at Heathlands is tailored to your personal preferences.

Arts & Crafts

At Heathlands Care Home, arts and crafts provide a wonderful opportunity for residents to express their creativity and enjoy meaningful, engaging activities, regardless of previous experience. Our varied programme includes everything from painting and decoupage to making seasonal decorations and creative workshops led by staff. These activities not only encourage self-expression but also promote social connection and mental wellbeing, helping residents to explore new interests or revisit cherished hobbies in a warm, supportive environment. Whether it’s crafting a colourful wreath or creating a delicate paper dove, arts and crafts at Heathlands bring joy, accomplishment, and a sense of community to everyday life.

Entertainment

At Heathlands Care Home we have numerous activities which are both vibrant and varied, offering something for everyone to enjoy. Residents can join in with the activities team’s organised sessions each afternoon, chat with visitors, or simply relax in the comfort of their own rooms. Our group outings to local shops and attractions are always popular, and we’re happy to arrange one-to-one trips for those who prefer a more personal experience. Music is at the heart of our community, with regular visits from singers, lively karaoke nights, group sing-alongs, and even instrumental jam sessions, often inspiring residents to get up and dance. Evenings are a time to unwind, whether with a good book, a favourite TV show, or a chat with loved ones via phone or video call, all rounded off with a warm drink and a bedtime snack to ensure a cosy end to the day.

Private Gardens

Heathlands Care Home is surrounded by lovely, fully enclosed landscaped gardens that are fully wheelchair accessible, providing a safe and tranquil outdoor space for residents and their visitors to enjoy. Many ground-floor rooms open directly onto the secure garden, allowing easy access to fresh air and nature. Residents with a passion for gardening can create their own potted gardens or hang baskets filled with favourite flowers, fostering a sense of purpose and connection with the outdoors. The garden is a popular spot for summer activities and games, offering plenty of comfortable seating where residents can relax, socialise, or simply soak up the sunshine in a peaceful, secure environment.

Hair Salon & Treatment Room

Heathlands Care Home offers residents the opportunity to enjoy regular pampering in our popular on-site hair salon, ‘A Cut Above’. This welcoming salon provides professional hairdressing services designed to help residents look and feel their best. Alongside hair care, pamper sessions are available, creating a relaxing and enjoyable experience that supports residents’ wellbeing and confidence. These services are an integral part of our home’s commitment to enhancing quality of life by combining expert care with moments of indulgence and personal attention.

Games & Recreation

Here at Heathlands Care Home we provide a vibrant and engaging environment where residents can enjoy a wide variety of games and recreational activities. From classic favourites like bingo, quizzes, dominoes, and card games to puzzles and reminiscence activities, there are regular opportunities for fun, laughter, and social connection. The activities team organises twice-daily sessions, ensuring everyone can participate in group games or opt for quieter, one-to-one activities if preferred. Whether you enjoy lively group competitions or relaxing with a jigsaw in the lounge, there is always something to suit your interests and abilities. Residents’ feedback and suggestions are welcomed, allowing the programme to be tailored to individual preferences and making sure everyone has the chance to stay active, stimulated, and fulfilled.
