Oxendon House Care Home

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the staff at Oxendon House for the care and love you gave to my friend.
From the moment she arrived she was made to feel so special and everyone made great efforts to get to know her and I will be eternally grateful that she spent her last days amount such caring and professional people.
My visits were always welcomed and the staff were always courteous and ready to assist with any issues that I might have, the home is run as a family environment so I found it easy to visit.

I would also like to say a great thanks to the management team for their invaluable advice and support regarding dementia care, they were very good at simplifying some of the issues we encountered when trying to find a home for our loved one.

The home is excellent, clean and well run and I would recommend it to anyone who has a relative with dementia.

My mother was accepted at Oxendon House after an extreme crisis period and hospital care of 4.5 months. I was distraught at the through of putting my vibrant, self assured mother into a home. I needn't have worried. Mum's health and mental capacity have improved dramatically since moving in. The care and respect she receives is 2nd to none. All staff care about her, and for her, nothing is too much trouble. The Senior Nurse and the home Manager have both provided me with the support to accept this position. They have been, and conitnue to be, way above what I expected, such professionals with over arching 'care' for both the residents and their families. I am truly blown away by how much all the staff do for mum and all other residents, they truly care and I have seen several very light hearted moments where everyone is laughing. Mum has a beautiful room and bathroom and has 'visits' several times a day from staff 'popping in' with tea, snacks, medications etc... often sitting down for a little chat. Mum absolutely loves it there, something I never thought she would accept. She loves the food, adores her room, enjoys the food and most of all has the freedom to get involved with little household activities which remind her of her independent days. She helps with handing out teas, tidying the 'sock drawer' and the day room as she feel fit to, something that some homes would not allow. It has proved to be Mum's saviour and I can once again see her vibrant personality shining through. She is safe, happy and in the best place she could possibly be. If you are at all concerned about putting a loved one into a home, check out Oxendon House, I would recommend it. I feel happy having my mum live there and I'm not an easy lady to please!
