What others have to say

Here are just some of the comments we’ve received from family, friends and residents at Oak House care home.

Staff are very dedicated. Very nice building. I have not been inside for a year. They had lots of activities going on. Very well maintained and kept clean including the rooms. Staff are very friendly and approachable.

Relative of a resident, April 2021

We want to express our gratitude to the team at Oak House. They have cared for my grandmother since 2015 and continue to provide exceptional care for her, even during the pandemic. We receive regular updates from the team and are reassured that she receives person centered care that goes above and beyond to meet her needs.

Relative of a resident, February 2021

My grandmother has dementia and she can sometimes be difficult to manage, however the team work amazingly together to recognise appropriate methods of delivering her care to ensure her needs are met under all circumstances. We are so grateful to have such a wonderful team supporting her - they deserve to be recognised for the amazing work they continue to do each day!

Relative of a resident, February 2021

Thank you to all the staff at Oak House for looking after my wife. Your thoughtful, caring and professional work is to be commended. She is in good safe hands and your work during this terrible pandemic has been brilliant. It is reassuring for myself and her family that you know your jobs so well.

Husband of resident, September 2020

My mum is incapable of speaking a lot of the time but the staff still continue to talk to her. They ask her if she wants drinks and they make extra effort to approach her as they know that she can't reach out herself. They make sure that my mum's entertainment is well suited to her and they ensure she is well stimulated.
