Overall Experience
My mother-in-law is currently living in Oaklands Care Home. The home has provided a life line for her quality of care.
They enable her to remain as independent as possible and support her where needed.
They have got to know her very well in the short time she has been at the home.

They have got to know her very well in the short time she has been at the home.
Meals used to be a problem with her and they cater for her very well. The home has a very relaxed atmosphere and you can tell when you visit that the residents are happy and cared for. The home is run professionally and they have a very stable team of carers who care.

- Outstanding - The service is performing exceptionally well.
- Good - The service is performing well and meeting our expectations.
- Requires Improvement - The service isn't performing as well as it should and we have told the service how it must improve.
- Inadequate - The service is performing badly and we've taken action against the person or organisation that runs it.
- Not rated - we have not yet rated this area of the service, this is normally because the assessments we have carried out have been focused on other key questions.
