Since my son has been at St Oggs his mental health has improved enormously. They make sure he takes his medication regularly. His is eating well, and always seems cheerful when we visit. The staff are very friendly and have become the family, always willing to chat when I ring up. My son was very poorly when he went to St Oggs, not eating, not sleeping and not taking his medication. He has improved so much which gives me peace of mind. I know he is cared for. Thank you.

Overall Experience
This facility is one of the best I have been in, and I should know as I have been in a few over the years. The management and staff are top-notch. My only gripe would be with the food menu but when catering to so many different needs, I can't really gripe at all.

My dad has lived at St Oggs for many years now and is happy in his home. Since it’s been under new management his care has improved even more. I live far away now and don’t get to see him as much but the manager is excellent at maintaining communication and ensuring I’m up to date with any information regarding my dad and goes above and beyond to support and care for my dad.
When I visit my dad he is now always dressed in clean clothes, freshly showered and hair kept trimmed and smart. It’s lovely to see him take pride in his appearance again and it’s evident he has an improved personal hygiene routine. I would like to see Dad go out a bit more and have the opportunity to socialise a bit, he loves football so visits to a local match from time to time would mean a lot to him. Overall I’m very happy with the care my father receives and would like to take the opportunity to thank all of the staff at St Oggs for their hard work.

We are treated with respect when we visit the home.
The outdoor pod was a big help in visiting through the Covid period.

My son is a vulnerable adult, he has had a traumatic adult life, my wish for a long time has been that my son would come to live at St Ogss after hearing nothing but positive reviews on the running of the home and the care given by the staff. My son got a place and he is a different person, he is happy and loves his new home. The staff are amazing, nothing is too much trouble, I am kept updated on how my son is doing, I visit regularly and I am always made to feel welcome. The home is very well managed, it is homely and spotless. The staff are all genuine carers it's not just a job to them, the residents are number 1 priority. My son is happy and finally I can sleep at night knowing he is in the best hands.

My brother-in-law is resident at St Ogg's care home, his sister and I have supported him for a considerable number of years. Despite our own best efforts, my brother-in-law has fluctuating mental problems, where at times he can be very difficult.
We visit St Oggs on a regular basis and speak with the manager and other staff whilst visiting our relative. We are always made welcome, we have been shown around to see how people are supported and cared for at the home and there is always transparency on any issues we may discuss. Our concerns are always listened to and background information or history is always accepted as helpful.
The home is always clean and there is always a cleaner at work whenever we visit. It's is notable that all of the staff speak to residents as part of a family which is reassuring. There is a nice canteen within the home, where the cook too, welcomes all and speaks in a very uplifting manner to residents.

St Ogg's presents as a place where the service users feel is a "home" rather than an "institution". It has a nice atmosphere. The cafeteria is beautifully decorated and if the weather is nice, the service users can sit outside and eat at the tables and chairs provided in the garden just outside the cafeteria.
The rooms are very nicely furnished and cleanliness seems to be of a high standard.

I am of the opinion the manager has an excellent team working at St Ogg's. It is clear they use a "person-centred approach" to help give the service users an individual care package, ensuring they have a happy life there.

I would like to inform you of the kindness and compassion of the staff at St Ogg's residential home. My brother died unexpectedly in hospital and the manager and all the staff were very helpful when my sister and I travelled to Gainsborough from Yorkshire. The manager helped us to go to the hospital to get the paperwork and register the death. As we didn't know the area it made a very difficult day bearable by driving us to these venues. All the staff have been lovely with our brother who had severe mental health problems, he was there for seven years.
