Sian Oakes

With over 12 years of experience in the care industry, beginning at the age of 18, I have dedicated my career to supporting individuals living with dementia and ensuring they receive compassionate, respectful, and truly person-centred care. My experience spans frontline care roles through to managing a home as a deputy, giving me a deep understanding of the emotional, physical, and psychological needs of those living with dementia.

Throughout my career, I have specialised in dementia care within care homes across the South East, working closely with residents, families, and care teams to ensure each individual is supported as a whole person, not solely based on physical needs. I believe exceptional care is built on empathy, patience, and meaningful human connection, with a strong focus on preserving familiarity, comfort, and routine.

I pride myself on providing a luxury standard of care while maintaining residents’ independence, dignity, and sense of self. My holistic approach recognises the importance of emotional wellbeing, personal choice, and creating environments where residents feel safe, valued, and truly at home - something I am excited to bring to Signature at Hornchurch.
