Experienced Care Staff provide 24-hour personal care in comfortable surroundings with dignity. The team take the time to get to know all residents and encourage independence and communication. They are dedicated to providing a smooth transition into a home where care is from the heart and interaction with residents is paramount. Residents show them the way.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has lived at Oak Lodge since last October. The manager has really got things up and running and I've seen continous improvements. It's a small home, which gives it a cosy feeling and has a lovely garden with new patio area.I was allowed to decorate my mum's room with her own artwork and pictures.
Some rooms are larger than others.The food and nutrition is good, clothes are washed every day, hairdresser every two weeks, activities weekday mornings and it's a impeccably clean home. Staff always inform me of any concerns or medication changes.
Recently we had a birthday party for Mum in the garden, Oak Lodge did a lovely buffet and we had a 12 guests. Family and friends are encouraged to visit and get involved. Most importantly for me, Oak Lodge has an open door policy which means I can go anytime without ringing ahead. I see mum a few times a week, take her out often and am always made to feel welcome.

My Mum was one of the first residents at Oak Lodge last year. I was very nervous as to how she would settle in. The management and staff have consistently been wonderful towards my Mum. She now appears very relaxed and settled there. I am very happy with the level of care towards my Mum.

My mother has been a resident since last summer. She's happy and well cared for, which is a great relief to me, as she had several falls in her previous sheltered accommodation. Although the staff are busy, they are always attentive, kind and very helpful.

The Manager and staff put on a wonderful party today for my mother's 100th birthday, we all enjoyed it very much especially my mum. They laid on a lovely buffet and made a beautiful cake, they even hired a DJ. My mother moved into the home about last October and she settled very well and enjoys living
there. The staff are very helpful and friendly. Thank you so much to everyone for a lovely party x

Current Review Score: 9.1 (9.133)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.1 (9.133) out of 10 for Oak Lodge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.6 out of 5 from 5 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.5 out of 5 from 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  1. 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months. The Average Rating of 4.633 for Oak Lodge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (39 Excellents x 5) + (20 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 60 Ratings = 4.633
  2. 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5'). The 4.5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oak Lodge Care Home is based on 5 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    1. 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 = 3.5
    2. 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 22 registered maximum number of service users is 4.4, which has been reached with 5 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  3. When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.
  4. If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
