Oaklands is kept clean and tidy with ongoing maintenance. Always seeking to improve facilities. Care and food is always of a good standard. Staff are friendly and helpful, always keen to please. They have to deal with difficult situations and show great patience.

My mum was in Oaklands for almost a year when she passed away in July 2017. In that time, she was looked after extremely well with understanding by friendly and dedicated staff. The food was excellent.

Wonderful homely place, very friendly. The staff go above board in making the residents happy and content. Food is delicious and nutritious. Lots of entertainment, beautiful well kept garden. Stands out from other care homes and I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place for a relative.

I have had previous experience of care homes and I would rate this one very highly indeed. They are a very caring environment and interact really well with the residents. There is always a good staff presence and they are always interacting with the residents.
The home is welcoming, clean and a good
place to visit. My dad's face lights up when staff come to him which for me is a wonderful testament to how happy he is there.

The care and attention that is given to my brother is marvellous. He is treated exactly how I would expect him to be if he were still home with me. We recently had the pleasure of attending the home annual hog roast. 10/10 to the management and carers for putting on such a lovely event.

I would recommend this warm and friendly care home to anyone looking for a warm family residence. The management and warm, friendly and caring staff are wonderful. They have always catered to my family's needs. Also, whenever there are special events, everyone joins in to celebrate, including birthdays,
fetes and Christmas parties. They are wonderful people.

The home is friendly, great atmosphere, nothing is too much trouble. Very welcoming and always have a smile on their faces. Care is fantastic and they always make sure our relative is happy and well looked after. Not only is the support brilliant for dad we are kept informed at all times and informed
of any changes. Dad is always saying he is well cared for and they are all so nice to him and gets on so well with them all. Lovely home.

Review from Paul K (Son of Resident) published on 9 September 2016 Submitted via Postal Card • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As I live in Vancouver, Canada, my sister arranged for my mother to be taken in at this care home. When returning to Canada after a visit, I always felt confident my mother was receiving the very best care. The staff really do go the extra mile and are always positive and caring with what can be very
challenging residents. Much of the credit must go to the manager, who is very firm and very caring, an excellent manager who inspires great confidence in the residents and also in the families. The last 3 years have been much less a worry knowing mum was being well looked after. The food is very good, freshly cooked and only fresh vegetables are used. 'Excellent'.

For the last year mum has continually been having water infections and this last month due to the ongoing care and persistence of the staff encouraging mum to drink and doctors giving the correct medication, I now visit a much happier and healthy mum. Well done Oaklands for not giving up and keeping
assuring me we could get mum better.
I also feel that for this last year I have always been able to talk to management and staff when I have any concerns or worries which is always good to have.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum was initially taken in for respite care 3 years ago. However, when it was clear that my Dad could not longer care for her himself this became permanent. All the staff here have been exceptional in catering for Mum's welfare, and this has been extended to my Dad, as well, on his frequent visits.
She had her own en suite room, which was always kept immaculate. Her personal hygiene was well tended and clothes well laundered and changed daily.
The food always smelled good, and was freshly cooked and served. There are regular visits from hairdresser and chiropodist.
All visitors are warmly welcomed, and their functions always well attended.

My husband was in Oaklands Care Home for 2 years and 3 months. He had the best care in the world up until he passed away on the 22nd of October 2015. All the residents at Oakland are treated the same, with loving care and dignity. Good food and the entertainment is first class, the manager and staff
can't do enough for them all. Thank you all.

Current Review Score: 8.6 (8.606)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 8.6 (8.606) out of 10 for Oaklands is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.3 out of 5 from 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.3 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 4.300 for Oaklands is calculated as follows: ( (44 Excellents x 5) + (16 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) + (6 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 70 Ratings = 4.3
  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 4.306 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oaklands 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 31 registered maximum number of service users is 6.2. 5 Positive Reviews ÷ 6.2 = 0.806
  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.
