My aunt moved in for respite two weeks ago for a one month stay due to her house having a gas fault. I must say the staff are incredibly helpful and polite and seem genuinely happy to be there. The facilities are great I have spoken to my aunt on the phone and via the iPad. She looks like she has had a lovely Christmas as I have been updated with pictures, which has put my mind at ease. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and I’m sure my aunt will be back at Oakleigh in the future. 5-star!

Just want to say a big thank you for moving in my grandad so smoothly, the staff are so friendly at this care home. Big shout out to the lady on reception for taking the time to explain to me how things work, I am very grateful to her and it’s put my mind at ease with everything that is going on with COVID-19, that there are the right measures in place. Activities are also really good even got a FaceTime call from my grandad the other day! Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this home.

My father-in-law moved into the Oakleigh 6 months ago during a very difficult time during the first lockdown.
All the staff are amazing and work so hard. They care so much for him and the other residents, and we are really impressed by the level of care he receives, and also by the varied activities they have every day. The home is spotless, and he received excellent meals.
We are so very grateful to all of the staff, especially with the added challenges 2020 has brought. It is such a comfort to know he is safe and has settled in so well. Thank you all.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Oakleigh to others.

My dad came in for respite. He's been here for 3 months. The staff are totally caring and considerate and very accommodating. We looked at loads of homes before choosing Oakleigh. It was better than all the others, in every aspect.
He will now be staying permanently.

My mother lives at Oakleigh care home, she has a great group of care staff that look after her and an excellent carer that’s her nominated Keyworker! This system in place has been great for my mother and for the family, there’s such a strong network of staff that understand each of their roles to ensure you get the best care and the right answers!
A big worry when my mother got dementia was what if she needs full time care and goes in a home, but once we picked Oakleigh, all the worries went away! I couldn’t be happier and my mother seems happy, she has new friends and enjoys being social and busy each day!

My mother has been a resident at Oakleigh for 6 1/2 years and in all that time she has had excellent facilities and staff looking after her. My wife and I have visited without prior notice many times and have always found her well dressed, her room and wardrobe neat and tidy and clean and if at mealtimes, the dining room pleasantly arranged and food well produced. The staff have always been very welcoming to us and treat my mother as if she were their own. I can only say thank you to them all and its so reassuring because we live so far away.

I am not easily pleased by people in life, but Oakleigh staff have been brilliant. I feel much better knowing my parents are getting 24-hour care. They are much safer and healthier than they were when they were living in their own home. Thank you, Oakleigh.

I went into Oakleigh. I'm respite - self funded. I had a shock, never been into Oakleigh before. I had 3 lovely weeks with them all. Lovely staff, food etc. Was treated with such respect and felt as if I had found some friends. I am 90 years old. I want to go back as a resident but unfortunately, at the moment, unable to afford it, which is a shame.
I came out feeling a lot better health-wise and also trying to understand other problems.

The staff try hard to meet needs of residents, maintain a cheerful outlook and are welcoming to visitors.
Recruitment in this field is not easy and the home struggle to keep a full staff compliment. The service can sometimes feel stretched.

Sadly, he could not return home, but his move into Oakleigh was made very easy for him due to the friendly staff and the bright and homely accommodation. He has settled in very well and enjoys the food. This all adds up to great peace of mind for his family. The home always seems to be well run and safety conscious.

The staff at the home are very friendly and welcoming. The new manager has been appointed and was already the deputy manager so there is continuity which I am very pleased about. All the residents seem happy and contented and my father is very settled there now.

My mother is 95 and has been resident at Oakley for 3 1/2 years. We chose Oakley as it was near her home of 6 generations that we had to sell for her care. It was homely and the staff warm. We have no complaints concerning her care. She is wheelchair bound and incontinent which must cause her carers extra work. They are respectful and helpful. In particular, a gentleman who was her main carer was outstanding. Our visits are always welcomed and staff open to discussion re my mum. We are always informed and even minor incidents regarding her care and our minds put at ease. Sadly we didn't get our usual invite to the Christmas bash which we have always enjoyed. She loves her painting class.
