Review from Judith B (Niece of Resident) published on 3 August 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Aunt has lived at Oakland Grange for two and a half happy years. She died last week after a short illness compounded by the COVID 19 situation.
Oakland Grange continuously nursed her with dignity and respect. Discussing the best way forward for my Aunts care with me on a regular basis. Not being
able to visit her did not help me, but I always knew my Aunts care would be second to none.
The manager and her staff are wonderful, full of compassion and care. I would recommend this home to anybody who wants the best care possible for a relative or friend.

This is one of the best residential homes. All of the staff are very caring and approachable. Nothing is too much trouble. There is a very warm and welcoming feel when you enter the home. The home is managed extremely well by the Manager and if there are any problems they are dealt with promptly. The
added "party and special days" are brilliant and much appreciated by residents.

Review from Patricia R (Daughter of Resident) published on 12 June 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother was a resident for 4.5 years. She could not have received better treatment and I feel extremely lucky that I chose Oakland Grange for her care.
On every visit, Mum told me how kind the staff were, nothing was too much trouble. I saw this for myself on many occasions. Oakland Grange is always
spotlessly clean, smart but cosy and welcoming. I ate in the dining room sometimes with Mum and the food was always very good and nourishing.
During Mum's last weeks, she was cared for superbly, with staff checking on her every 30 minutes, dropping to every 15 minutes when necessary. They were also great comfort and support to me at a difficult time.
I really can't praise them highly enough.

Review from Nick F (Son of Resident) published on 14 January 2019 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My Father (92) stayed at Oakland Grange for two weeks over the Christmas and New Year so that he wasn’t on his own over this period. Oakland Grange is like being in a hotel. He was treated so well and nothing was too much trouble for them. The place was spotless and the food excellent. I visited my
father every day and found him to be happy and commenting on how goods everything was from the staff to the sherry!!!!!. There seemed to be plenty of activities ranging from entertainment (piano and sing along sessions) to physical exercise and hand / eye coordination activities.
I was very impressed with the manager at Oakland grange, it was quite clear to see that she puts her heart and soul into this place and truly cares about her residents and staff. I would have no hesitation in recommending Oakland Grange and feel assured that my Father would be welcome back at any time and I would be happy knowing that he would be enjoying his final years.

Review from Jan Y (Daughter of Resident) published on 23 November 2018 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
As soon as I visited Oakland Grange I knew that this was the right care home for my Mum. Welcoming staff and a lovely building with comfy rooms and an overall 'feel good' factor. Mum moved in for two weeks respite care at first, but on returning home realised that Oakland was where she wanted and needed
to be, so she moved back in full time in June 2018. I cannot praise the staff enough - they were kind, considerate, caring and nothing was ever too much trouble. The manager was always happy to help and provide support, which in the end we needed as Mum sadly began to deteriorate in September and needed more personal care. Activities are provided if you wanted to join in, and occasional visits out. Food was great and plentiful. Sadly Mum passed away at the end of October and the staff were absolutely marvellous, both with Mum but also supportive to me with copious amounts of tea and coffee and food offered during the many hours I spent at the home. Thank you!

A welcoming, spacious and friendly home where my husband had a lovely day recently. We found the staff very supportive and positive; the manager showed a genuine concern for the well-being of her residents, and we very much appreciated her sensitive and helpful approach. An extremely pleasant place
and highly recommended.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.881)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.881) out of 10 for Oakland Grange 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 37 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 37 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 4.881 for Oakland Grange is calculated as follows: ( (387 Excellents x 5) + (48 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 437 Ratings = 4.881
  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 Oakland Grange is based on 37 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 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 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 42 registered maximum number of service users is 8.4, which has been reached with 37 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.
