Overall Experience
Excellent staff and local management, but dealing with top management over fees etc is difficult.
Home has improved over the last few months with more activity staff and trips.

My mother has been a resident for approximately 5 years. The nursing and care staff are excellent and caring. The domestic staff keep everything very clean.
Lack of activities is a big problem. Since the lady who ran activities retired in June, there has been little stimulation for the residents....

Lack of activities is a big problem. Since the lady who ran activities retired in June, there has been little stimulation for the residents. Since the new owners have taken over, the fees have increased twice, substantially with no evidence of change in conditions for the residents or staff.

Overall Experience
Dad is very relaxed and happy in Oakdene. He has improved medically since being admitted and his outlook seems much better. I am able to leave and not continually worry. It has been a good move.

The care provided to my cousin at Oakdene Care Home was outstanding. It could not be faulted and neither could it be improved upon in any way. My cousin was treated with the utmost tender loving care throughout her stay. We felt that whilst at Oakdene, she was a member of an extended family who valued her, supported her and loved her. We, her own family, will always be grateful to the staff at Oakdene.

Overall Experience
My dad has been in Acorn Lodge for around 6 months now. I cannot praise the staff more for the care that he gets. He is always well dressed, everywhere is clean and the food is lovely. My dad loves it there and he is always treated with respect.

- 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.
