Oak Lodge Reviews (10)
Over all time Oak Lodge has 10 reviews.
Special thanks goes to her for making it possible, and another staff member chaperoned for the day, and all the staff for looking after Dad - he looked very smart! It won't ever be forgotten the efforts you all went to in making it possible for Dad to be there on our special day.
The food is excellent and varied, so important to well being.
All staff worked very hard to provide a summer fair on 17th August; excellent, enjoyed by residents and visitors. Plenty of food and drink, stalls, dance, demonstration singer (very good) and friendly staff chatting to everyone.
Well done.
The staff were excellent!
The home is clean, tidy and the residents are treated with kindness, respect but there is also an element of fun and enjoyment.
The carers are always engaging with the residents as they pass through the home in their daily routine.
My mother has been in Oak Lodge for a month now and has improved in all aspects of her condition of dementia. She seems to be much more relaxed and comfortable. The staff are all very nice and supportive towards my mum, seeing to her needs with dignity and care.
My sister was resident at Oak Lodge from 20th Dec 2018. She was terminally ill with cancer and needed nursing. The staff assessed my sister and quickly arranged for her transfer to their care. On arrival, she was made very comfortable in a lovely room with a large window and view outside. My sister particularly enjoyed this. On Christmas morning a member of staff took the time to sit with her chatting and getting to know her background and likes and dislikes.
Entertainments have still taken place. I believe that improvements have been made in some areas.
I am satisfied with the care and treatment of my wife (a resident).
The best of the others I've experienced.
The quality of care he has received has been excellent. The home is extremely clean and has just been refurbished and looks amazing.
My Grandma has been in the care home for over a year now and I visit her regularly. I can say that every time I have been in I have found the home clean and the staff extremely professional. It has recently been refurbished so it looks even better. The gardens are nice so I usually sit outside with a cup of tea and watch the birds which my grandma loves.
An excellent residential/nursing home. Recently refurbished throughout to a high standard. The staff are committed and do a wonderful job. The quality and standard of meals is first class. It is kept spotlessly clean. The residents enjoy games and music to stimulate them, highly recommended.
