Oak Lodge Nursing Home

Oaklodge looked after my mum for for 4 years in the last years of her life. The care staff, nurses, entertainment, food and managers were excellent. Above all was the warm, friendly and kind atmosphere that allowed my mother to enjoy life with laughter until the day she died. Oaklodge have my thanks and respect for the thoughtful, hard work they put in to make mum happy. Jim.

Since the provision of nursing home care being found my brother has improved in many ways, after a long stay in hospital although mostly confined to bed he has, and is, receiving kindness from staff, attention and willing help, supporting and encouraging him when and where possible. Possibly not the easiest of patients at time; but happier and more contented than previously, with good medical care. His mental capacity has improved, which is very much a relief to me (and his family, who are wonderful too!) caring and gentle staff, and management understanding is so appreciated.

We are incredibly grateful to Jacob and all the staff at Oak Lodge for the care and kindness they have shown Dad, and for making what has been an incredibly difficult time for our family feel that little bit easier. Thank you all so much.

The care was of an exceptional level, bearing in mind my mother was a difficult person to deal with. The staff went above and beyond to make her stay as pleasant as it could be.

His room was clean and comfortable and nothing was too much trouble for the staff.

Oak Lodge staff are wonderful. The care they gave my Dad in his final months was amazing. In addition, the support they give me and their communication with me, was brilliant. They made a traumatic time less traumatic

We would highly recommend Oak Lodge a 5* home for a loved one

Really put our minds at rest knowing she was well looked after- thankyou so much.

Dad was having a wonderful time celebrating with his family when he unexpectedly passed away. The staff were so kind to us all, a heartfelt thank you to you all for taking good care of Dad in his final months.

My Mother was a resident for 9 months till she passed away. During that time she was cared for to the highest possible standards by dedicated and skilled professionals, but equally importantly she was shown genuine love and respect by a team of unbelievably big-hearted special people. Every single member of staff, no matter what their job, from cleaners to managers, demonstrated a dedication to making the resident's lives as comfortable, dignified and joyful as possible. This only increased as my mother approached the end of her journey with the same care also being shown to myself and my family.

Mum was cared for at Oak Lodge for her final 3 months following a life-changing stroke. The team were so kind and caring, treating Mum with dignity and respect. They did everything they could to keep her comfortable and take care of her individual needs. They looked after both Mum and myself during her final days and hours with compassion and kindness.

My heartfelt thanks to the staff of Oaklodge for there care of my father this year, he passed away in June and was with staff members he trusted and felt safe with. The care and attention he was exposed to over his last few months was excellent with staff going beyond the norm to assist and make his life comfortable.

My beloved husband was in Oak Lodge Nursing Home for 15 months and received the best care from everyone working in the home from the top to the bottom. The nurses and carers were so kind and very caring especially as my husband was not mobile, nothing was too much trouble. I chose Oak Lodge Nursing Home for my husband as I had received at least half a dozen personal recommendations, all of them emphasizing the good care which I particularly wanted and am so pleased I did. I am happy to recommend anybody if they are looking for a cosy and reasonably priced home with great care.

My dad moved to the care home in February 2023, and died 16th March 2024, during his time there I found the staff to be very friendly and caring. They made sure my dad was kept clean, tidy and comfortable and always kept us well informed of any issue. I would highly recommend this care home.

The management and staff were excellent and I must thank them for the care, kindness, and compassion given during that time, not only to my mother but to our family as well.

As a family were couldn’t have asked for a kinder and compassionate place to allow my auntie to slip away peacefully and without pain.

The management and staff at Oak Lodge Nursing Home have a very caring attitude towards their residents and families. My mother was treated with kindness and respect by the nurses and staff and always dressed in clean clothes and bed covers. Staff explained all procedures to her and took the time to listen to her replies. Mum was usually visited three times a week by members of the family and we got to know the staff and had confidence that she was being well looked after. I was very grateful to Oak Lodge Nursing Home for providing a welcoming place of love and dignity for Mum.

Caring, understanding staff and manager - good humour. Welcoming at all times. Resident concerned was bedridden due to the spine. All carers were gentle and professional when personal care was carried out. Special diet was needed, made with flavour and care. Some rooms downstairs are a little small, some with limited open views. We were very fortunate to have a good room at first, then able to move to a better, brighter room after a few weeks.

My mum was a resident at Oaklodge for eight months. I thought the care and attention she received was very good. We found the staff very friendly, accommodating and caring towards my mother during her time as a resident. I was kept informed and included at all times of her health needs. I would have no hesitation in recommending Oaklodge.
