Oakwood Court is a very friendly, welcoming care home. The staff are amazing and nothing is too much trouble. Dad has settled in here so well. The events and daily activities are very well done and keep him well stimulated. We are kept well informed and up to date on all goings on through regular emails

Oakwood is a very caring environment, staffed by empathetic and caring carers and admin people. I am often impressed when I see the interactions between the staff and my mother-in-law. It is also a safe environment for residents and the special events put on by staff are a credit to the home.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
I would like to say that during my visit staff were very kind, attentive, friendly and engaging at all times, with all Residents as well as us. The surroundings are comfortable, very clean ( but there was one toilet without a light functioning that could have been marked as out of action, rather than
allow Residents to get halfway in before we discovered this!) We were told the maintenance person was off this week, and were waiting for their return. Staff were very warm and friendly with us, ensuring we had drinks being a very hot day as well as the Residents, and when we asked for support with our family member were available immediately ( Thank you Gill) and interacted with dignity and respect, gaining consent at all times. It was a great shame that afternoon tea did not come with the same lovely treats as our relative is gluten free, just a dry old biscuit and no choice with that, it was all that was on offer. Other Residents had a choice of homemade cakes, so sad to see.
Reply from Lizzie Gurr, Marketing & Communications Officer at Oakwood Court

Thank you for your review . We're pleased to hear you found our staff to be kind, attentive, and respectful to everyone. Your kind words about the warmth and professionalism of our team, especially Gill, mean a great deal and will certainly be shared with them. We apologise for the inconvenience caused by the light not working in the toilet. Our team hadn't been made aware of this fault at the time of your visit, and so fixed the problem soon after it was reported. Your feedback about the gluten-free refreshment is important to us. We're sorry that on this occasion there wasn't a gluten free cake available. We cater for a variety of dietary requirements and usually have cakes for everyone, we will improve this going forward. Thank you again for your thoughtful and constructive feedback. We hope to welcome you again soon.

Mum has been with Oakwood Court since July 2023. (She has now moved on due to extra nursing needs.) During her time with Aokwood, she was always treated with kindness, patience, dignity and respect by all of the wonderful team there. Nothing is too much trouble and things are dealt with expeditiously.
Communication is consistently clear and all staff are approachable. Knowing she was so well looked after gave me peace of mind. Thank you to all at Oakwood!

Mum was with Oakwood for 5 years. She struggled to settle due to her Alzheimer's/dementia and the home was so supportive during that time. We found the staff to be friendly and caring throughout. As Mum's dementia progressed I felt reassured that she was being well cared for. The home was always spotless
and light and airy and most importantly full of life. We sat by Mum's bedside for many hours in her final 9 days and were so impressed with the care and dignity shown to Mum and also for us. Nothing was too much trouble and if you have to make the difficult decision of care for your loved one. I would not hesitate to recommend Oakwood. Thank you!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
At 91 years old our mother recently came to the decision that she could no longer carry on living independently. She wanted more help and above all companionship. Having visited a few care homes, the moment she walked into Oakwood Court she knew this was where she wanted to be. From the outset everyone
involved couldn't have been more friendly and accommodating and have gone out of their way to help ensure a stress free transition. Nothing has been too much trouble. Her needs and wishes are sought and acted upon by everyone and Steve, the wonderful handyman, has done all he can to ensure her room is as cosy, comfortable and homely as can be. We were also impressed with how a recent medical situation was dealt with quickly and efficiently. What we her daughters always imagined would be a difficult time, has proved anything but. In just a few weeks, our mother has settled in, is happy and feels very safe and secure in her new home. Maybe the delicious food she enjoys plays a part too.
Reply from Lizzie Gurr, Marketing & Communications Officer at Oakwood Court

Thank you for your review. We're so pleased that moving your mum to Oakwood Court has been a more positive experience than you firstly imagined moving to a care home would be like, and that our brilliant team have helped her to feel at home and settle in well. We understand how stressful and anxious finding a care home can be and we strive yo do everything we can to help make the process easier. We hope you continue to get peace of mind and enjoy visiting your Mum.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Oakwood Court has been a wonderful home for my mother. My siblings and I visited Mum several times a week and we were always met with a friendly welcome and offered a cup of tea. I know Mum also appreciated the warm and friendly atmosphere at Oakwood. The food was consistently good and as Mum became
frailer and less able to look after herself, there was always help at hand. Medical requirements were also met which was so helpful for us who had been handling Mum's meds for the years leading up to her move to Oakwood. Choosing a care home requires a lot of thought but if I was choosing again with the knowledge I now have, I'd definitely pick Oakwood for a second time.
Reply from Lizzie Gurr, Communications and Engagement Officer at Oakwood Court

The day my wife first went home, we had a big welcome banner and a goody hamper in the room. She felt at home very quickly, and all the carers were very attentive at all times. The management was always ready to help with any problems. The home was very clean and the food was excellent.


I would highly

recommend Oakwood Court Care Home as the care is excellent.

I viewed 11 homes for my 90 year-old mother before choosing Oakwood Court and after nearly a year, I know we made the right choice! The home is run by a housing association and the professionalism shows. It is purpose-built so the bedrooms are roomy and have their own bathrooms. The communal areas are
homely but dignified, and everything is spotlessly clean. There is a proper kitchen with fresh meals and homemade cakes every day. The hospitality is great, with regular invites to social events and activities. All the staff at every level have been friendly and welcoming and staff turnover seems low. I'm particularly impressed by the healthcare support. The senior carers communicate regularly with me and respond quickly to any changes or concerns. Since moving in Mum has become less anxious, her eating, hydration and mobility have improved, and she is more confident about joining in and trying new things - so all in all I think Oakwood is doing an amazing job!
