Review from Jeremy L (Son of Resident) published on 15 April 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Mum has now been at Oakview for just over a month but I thought it would be useful to share my experience. Mum had come from her own home where she had 2 full-time carers, however, the time had come for her to move into residential care. From the initial viewing, I felt the setting was much more
like a home environment rather than a care setting, I was so impressed with the information and the surroundings. An assessment was quickly arranged and Mum was settled in the home within a couple of days.
As a regular visitor, I have been so impressed with how well she has settled in, each time she seems happy, calm, and content. Mum is now always clean, dressed in clean clothes daily and her overall appearance and mood have improved hugely since moving into Oakview. I feel supported by all of the lovely team at Oakview, I am informed about her care and any care decisions that need to be made. Any families making this huge decision should look no further than Oakview 10/10!
Reply from Lauren Elliot, Assistant at Oak View Residential Care HomeThank you so much for reviewing Oak View. It's always great to hear about people's real experiences. We are so pleased your mum has settled in well and is enjoying herself. It's also nice to know your mum and family feel fully supported by the team. We hope your mum and family continue to receive all the care and support you need.

Review from S M (Brother of Resident) published on 9 January 2024 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 2.0 out of 5
My sister was a resident at Oak View from March-Sept 2023. There is an opportunity for this place to be great, but it left me disappointed. The staff are polite and friendly, but there was little or no interaction between the staff and my sister other than calling her for meals and dispensing medication.
My sister was not taken out for any excursion by staff either individually or on a group outing, despite the beach being very near. The only regular “activity” was the musical entertainment on Friday. The patio access is via a code-locked door and I rarely saw residents using it - mainly used by staff for their breaks. The laundry process needs attention because clothes regularly went missing which upset my sister. The “carehome.co.uk” website says there is a “Phone Point in own room/Mobile”, but no phone point and the care home bans mobile phones. This left my sister feeling isolated and lonely. In my opinion, the “luxury hotel environment ” claim in the home’s brochure does not reflect reality.
Reply from Rachel Adey, General Manager at Oak View Residential Care HomeI am deeply sorry that your sister felt alone and isolated. I wish I had known about the mobile phone problem; it would have given me the chance to do the necessary risk assessment and prevent this situation. Our staff do work hard to build strong relationships with the residents. We will, however, look again at our training and supervision model to find ways to increase staff-to-resident interaction outside of scheduled care. We are currently adding more fun and interesting activities for our service users. In addition to this, we will look at the use of the patio access. I apologise for the problems associated with the laundry. We are carefully looking at our laundry system now to make sure there will not be any future problems.
Our goal is to give our residents and their visiting families a safe, friendly, and high-quality place to live and experience. I am sorry you thought we didn't live up to our standards. Again, thank you for taking the time to give us such useful feedback.

Mum was a resident at the home for five weeks and received excellent care. Her room was comfortable and always clean and fresh. The staff treated Mum with respect and care and was always friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. The family was safe in the knowledge that she was being well looked after.
I would highly recommend the home to anyone looking for care for a loved one.
Reply from Lauren Elliot, Assistant at Oak View Residential Care HomeHi Cheryl, thank you so much for your kind words. We are pleased to hear that your Mum enjoyed her stay with us at Oak View and that your family were happy with everything. We appreciate you taking the time to write a review.

Care at Oak View for Mom is excellent and always has been. The staff remain vigilant at all times as Mom is susceptible to infections; they catch these very quickly. Mom is loved and cared for and shows as she is always happy.

My husband has been at Oak View for two and a half years, and the care he has been given by the staff has been outstanding. They all go above and beyond to make his stay pleasurable. The home itself is modern and comfortable and caters for all the resident's needs. I can't praise this home enough.

My father has been a resident at Oak View for a number of years now, and I cannot stress enough just how exceptional the care he receives is. I’ve had experience with other homes, and they simply do not compare. I would strongly recommend them to anyone; it’s never an easy decision to choose the right
home for your loved one, so hopefully, this accolade will help people when in the process of making such a tough decision.

Because of virus lockdowns I have never been inside the care home or seen any other residents. I go into my father's room through an outside door so I cannot answer questions on facilities/activities. The manageress, the staff, cleaning lady and maintenance man have always been cheerful, friendly and
helpful to me and my Dad. His room is clean and warm. The en-suite sink and toilet are gleaming clean. I am very pleased and couldn't wish for better for him.

My brother was in Oakview for respite care after being discharged from the hospital. From the first day of him being there, he was treated with dignity and compassion.
Each time I rang, the staff were friendly and helpful and always cheerful. Nothing seemed too much trouble. It was a home from home.

Oak View is a kind and caring; family orientated home. The staff include me in all decision making and are as kind to me; as they are to my husband. The staff are very welcoming, and nothing is too much trouble. They will do everything they can to accommodate and always want to please. I feel my husband
is in very capable hands, and my mind is at ease; leaving him in their excellent care.

My Mother moved to this home when her previous home was not equipped to cope with her advancing dementia. Oak View welcomed her, also my sister and I. Mum seems to have settled in well and is much more content, they have been able to reduce her medication considerably meaning Mum is less drowsy and
able to 'converse' with us on our visits. The home is clean, warm and welcoming with efficient and friendly staff. They are very responsive to the needs and interests of residents i.e. Mum likes to 'clean' so they got her a little bucket and a cloth so she can clean to her heart's content. There is good security there keeping the residents safe.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.866)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.866) out of 10 for Oak View Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 21 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 21 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 4.866 for Oak View Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (217 Excellents x 5) + (26 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 246 Ratings = 4.866
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oak View Residential Care Home is based on 21 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 4
    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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 21 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.
