At Oaklands Nursing Home the team "Care About" not just care for the residents. The house feels like home where all guests are made to feel welcome and there is always a friendly smile or hug for family members.
The management and nursing team are readily available to discuss the care plan for my mum
and involve me in my mums "Health" journey. Every member of the Oaklands team from the manager to the maintenance staff treat my mum's needs on "very important" well done and thank you.

Residential home with nursing has to meet certain criteria and meet relevant rules and regulations - all of which could de-personalise and institutionalise the home, staff and residents. Oaklands Nursing Home manages to invisibly meet it's obligations while providing residents and their family and friends
with a home that welcomes, dignifies and befriends. Quite an achievement!

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Since mum has been at Oaklands there has been a change of management and things have improved enormously. Rooms have been redecorated and a vast improvement with staff and care given. Entertainment has been increased and residents have some form of entertainment seven days a week. I would have no hesitation
in recommending Oaklands to people that have relatives who need care.

Mum has lived at Oaklands for four years. Over time, management have changed. The overall standard has improved no end. The care mum gets is excellent and she seems very happy. The activities at Oaklands are very good and the residents are all encouraged to join in. I feel very happy when I leave her
here as I know she is in very good hands.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My father in law is a patient at Oaklands Nursing Home. He is 92 years old and suffers with dementia and Parkinson's disease. He is treated with dignity. He settled down quite quickly, enjoys the musicals. They provide singing exercise and the patients are very friendly to each other and one family,
joining in with all activities.
The staff are very good with the patients, the food is excellent.

Oaklands has a lovely garden and sea views from a lot of windows. The present owners have replaced the windows very sympathetically and a new hairdressing room has been provided. The rooms, bedrooms, dining room, lounge, hall etc have all been decorated and new furniture provided. The food is very good.
The staff are very caring and pleasant, also encouraging. The atmosphere is very nice, more like a large family home than a care home. No aromas, pleasant.

I have a therapy support dog and I visit Oaklands Nursing Home once a month for about an hour. Everybody is friendly and we are made welcome, enjoying a cup of coffee and chat. The residents are able to pat and talk to my dog which is very beneficial to them. My dog (and I) enjoy our visits.

We always receive a warm welcome. Residents who choose are brought to the lounge for a short church service and the staff show a commitment to the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of the residents. If people are unable to attend the service they are asked if they would like us to visit them in
their rooms and we are taken up to them. The residents always seem happy and there is a lovely warm atmosphere in the home.

Since my dad has been here the difference in him is amazing. He didn't eat, he couldn't sit up or speak very well. He was confused. Now he eats 3 good meals a day.
He talks to us and can sit up, joins in all the activities which are going on every day.
The staff are all very caring and understanding.
Nothing
seems too much trouble.
Well done to you all.

Every time I visit I am met with kindness and friendliness. The residents seem very happy where they are clearly treated with respect and kindness. The house is spotlessly clean and the rooms are bright and nicely furnished. There are plenty of daily activities for them if they wish to participate.
Reply from Henna, Marketing Director at Oaklands Nursing Home

Thank you. I am glad you are so happy with the care at our home. The team believe that activities are a fundamental part of the care that we offer. We want the home to be an example that people of all ages can enjoy and benefit from each others company. It is always a pleasure welcoming you into our home!

My aunt has been here a long time and everybody has been so kind and looked after her well, giving her love, respect and dignity. She is now 98 and very frail, everything is still being done to make her comfortable. Thank you so much.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.927)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.927) out of 10 for Oaklands Nursing Home 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 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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 4.927 for Oaklands Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (141 Excellents x 5) + (9 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 151 Ratings = 4.927
  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 Oaklands Nursing Home is based on 13 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 32 registered maximum number of service users is 6.4, which has been reached with 13 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.
