Green Gates Care Home

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
The home is a very pleasant place to sit after you have had a meal. There are two lounges to choose from. My husband was taken ill recently by the paramedics and ambulance people were very kind and came very quickly. The nurse here and the care staff helped them to make sure he was comfortable until
they took him to hospital.

The home is welcoming when I arrive and staff find time to answer any questions or concerns we may have which is very helpful as we live some distance from Oxford.
For example the Head of Home recently contacted the residents' GP on our behalf to discuss a complex issue, and came back very quickly
with the response and further advice.
The nursing staff seem kind.

My husband has been in Green Gates for one month. We find the staff very caring , considerate and extremely friendly. Nothing seems too much trouble for them. I think the idea of being able to visit my husband anytime and at my convenience is marvelous.

My son has been in Green Gates for four months following a severe haemorrhagic stroke, and he has been very well looked after by all the lovely nurses and carers who have to do so much for him. They are unfailingly kind and cheerful, and indeed all the staff are friendly and ready to help, creating
a good atmosphere in the home.

My first priority is for my husband to be well cared for, well fed & clean & safe. Green Gates meets these requirements however, Bupa seem to be reviewing guidelines & practices & t create an image that seems clinical & institutional & not adapted to the individual home. Carers sometimes appear overwhelmed
by new rules & management are conspicuous by their absence, indeed some residents do not know who the manager is. I admire all these staff for their dedication, I think the manager is lucky to have such a caring team. Instead of more posters & target info on walls one to one talk or praise would impress me more.

Thank you for your comments. We are pleased to hear that your Husband is well cared for and looked after. We will discuss your feedback with the home's manager to help them continually improve their service.

Following 2 falls at home my mother was unable to continue living independently at home and we transferred her for care at Green Gates. It took a while for her to adjust to the new way of life as so many new faces and names were confusing for her. The medical staff were very careful to assess her needs
and the transfer of Doctor to the Care home practitioner was a relief for all the family. She is still struggling with the food and needs to encouraged to eat as she no longer has access to her choices but the carers are patiently getting her adjusted. From my point of view we are satisfied that she is being well looked after and safe in her new environment. My only slightly negative comment is that the staff cover at weekends is very stretched and laundry items seem to disappear regularly.
Reply from Maria Ricketts, Customer Care Adviser at Green Gates Care Home

Thank you for your lovely review We are very happy to hear you can feel at ease with your mum in our care. We have discussed your feedback with the Home Manager and moving forward the home will arrange a monthly food committee meeting and will have residents on the committee. The manager is going to check all clothing is labelled for the resident and will look in lost property if there are any items of clothing missing. Please let us know if there is anything we can do to make your loved ones stay as comfortable as possible.

Always helpful and friendly.

Impressed with the cleanliness.
Just a proposal: an intercom system at the main door would be great if a visitor needs to speak to the reception before entering the building.
Will you be able to convey this proposal to the relevant department?

My mother has recently celebrated her 100th birthday at Green Gates. The staff could not have done more to make it a wonderfully memorable occasion: delicious home-prepared food and lovely cake at her tea party; beautiful decorations and a huge welcome for all our family, including seven great-grandchildren,
who had such fun. The managers made all the arrangements, the kitchen staff served excellent refreshments and the carers got my mother ready and looked after her so kindly and skilfully.
They made it a very special occasion for all the family.
My mother has been at Green Gates for 18 months, after a series of falls and breaking her hip. She was very frail and confused but the excellent nursing care has made her much more comfortable and happily settled. We have met so much kindness and love from the excellent carers, nurses and managers. We are always welcomed as visitors at any time.

The general experience of being a care home resident at Green Gates Care Home is ok but there seems to be a disconnect between staff and management. The staff are struggling with heavy workloads and insufficient praise and support from management who are mostly invisible to residents and seem not to
be involved with them personally. Facilities like baths are not available, having been converted into an equipment store room. Activities seem patchy and unpredictable, although good when delivered e.g. Owls and penguin contact.

I have been in Green Gates for a year now. Prior to this, I have only been in other homes for short periods. This is by far the best. The food is varied. The staff are very respectful in working, showing and cleaning. I make the effort to join in as many of the plentiful activities as I can. I look
forward to the activities which are well organised this winter.

Greengates has been transformative in the way it has cared for my mother who is 89, non-verbal and immobile and very much at the end of her life.
I cannot thank the manager enough for her persistence with multiple agencies in unblocking the roadblocks to ensure that my mother was able to move to Greengates.
Now that my mother is at Greengates I am confident that she is being looked after in the way we want for her. That has brought peace where once there was intense, gnawing anxiety in my mind and heart. That is priceless.
Thank you so much to the manager and team. This is a lovely care home run in a way that inspires confidence.
