Welcome to Elmstead Care Home in Chislehurst

Elmstead is a care home that has been specially designed to cater for frail elderly residents and those with dementia. Inside the home itself you'll find spacious lounges, a delightful garden and pond and an on-site hairdressing salon.

As well as providing long-term care for people with dementia, we also offer convalescence, residential, respite and day care. Our highly trained carers provide 24-hour care that is focused on the needs of individual residents.

We open our doors from Monday to Saturday to those who require day care facilities. Our day care residents are offered a safe, secure environment with a full suite of services, including a hot lunch, snacks and refreshments throughout the day, plus any personal care such as bathing or hair washing.

    Our activities

    At Elmstead we've taken the time to plan an enjoyable and varied range of activities that are designed to suit all tastes and abilities. For example, every month we host a different themed event that is designed so that all our residents can join in, regardless of their ability and mobility.
