Good food, kept getting clothes mixed up, some not my grandads. Friendly staff and manager very helpful. I never saw any activities in the week, I visited most days.

I am just wondering why Headington Care Home housing frail elderly people cannot fix the boiler problems that mean no hot water, no showers, no proper wash for several weeks? Pretty shocking isnt it?? Still charging hefty fees. Where is all that money going?

As I have mobility problems the staff always kindly get a wheelchair and take me to his bedroom, and take me back down to reception for my taxi/lift home. Very kindly are happy to bring me a most welcome cup of tea. The food is varied and always looks well cooked and enticing. Physio is given daily.

Visited my father, totally unannounced, he is bedridden, but he and his room were clean, tidy and smelling fresh. Staff checked in on us and guided us through his wellbeing and care.

I am very happy to have my Auntie in this care home. The home is kept spotless and if we have a problem, such as the toilet leaking, it is attended to immediately. The staff are wonderful and I have never heard any staff get cross with any of the residents. All the nursing staff are exceptional and always cheerful and helpful. All in all. This care home is excellent.
I found her room to be in a disgusting state. Filthy carpet, broken toilet seat and broken furniture.

I have been finding difficult to cope with the ever changing entry and exit methods, as I visit on a Sunday, and have to wait for someone to help me. However I quite understand that security is a priority.
Thank you for sharing your feedback. I'm sorry to hear you are having difficulty with the new digital sign in process, it does take a little getting used to but if we can do anything to assist, please do let us know. Best wishes, Litiana
The staff were fantastic. Food bland and not very nice. We couldn't really fault the care mum received and as a family we are so pleased of the outcome. To have her home after 3 weeks with yourselves is great, we are very happy she didn't need to go home with carers.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I am thrilled that we were able to provide the high standards of care that we are known for, to facilitate your mums return home without the need for additional support. If we can be of service again in the future, please do not hesitate to get back in touch. I have noted your comments regarding the food. Our chef works very hard to provide a varied menu that not only meets the nutritional needs of up to 60 residents but that offers choice, and that appeals to all tastes. This can be a difficult task but we constantly strive to improve, and we will take your comments and feedback on board.
I enjoy visiting my family friend who is well looked after .Staff do their best .

From time to time, my wife and I call in to visit on of your residents. Prior to moving into The Headington Care home, he lived on the same estate as we do. We have known our friend for over ten years and been alongside him in many situations. The care home has transformed his life at so many levels; with his thoughts and in his outlook on life. He has been supported in so many levels by the staff.
I was very impressed with the new female physio. She engaged with all the residents by having name badges, walking around the room, speaking to individuals before getting them to join in. She also sang to them at the end and got some of them to salute. A great improvement on the previous male...
I was very impressed with the new female physio. She engaged with all the residents by having name badges, walking around the room, speaking to individuals before getting them to join in. She also sang to them at the end and got some of them to salute. A great improvement on the previous male physion who only sat on a chair for the whole session.
