It was initially a concern to have to put my father in care. But we were very lucky to find Oakbank for my father's care. They are second to none, they are so caring and thoughtful. I am so reassured at all times that he is being looked after, probably better than we could have ourselves.

The staff at Oakbank are very good and attend to the patients to the best of their abilities. Would recommend to anyone who has elderly relatives or friends.

Thank you for your review, very nice comments regarding the care staff and your rating scores.
My dad was in Oakbank for two weeks. He was cared for extremely well by the staff and carers in the home. I would have no hesitation in asking could he stay there again if needed for respite.

The care that has been to a good standard. Staff are friendly. Food is of a good quality and never to much trouble if you prefer something different to what is on offer.

Have been in the care home a few weeks and I am getting used to the new surroundings and the staff, who help as much as they can. It's very different to what I am used to as for many years, I was living on my own.

My mum had to go into a care home because we simply could not cope any more and it was for her own safety as she was falling a lot so needed 24-hour care. We chose Oakbank Care Home because it is in our area. We now have peace of mind, all staff are great. The only problem is her clothes even though they are all named, they go missing, apart from that a brilliant care home.
My Grandmother wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for Oakbank Care Home and their brilliant staff who have nursed her back to health from a very poor state. The staff are very caring and attentive and the facilities are very well maintained.

The staff are so caring and look after everyone as if they are one of the family. The staff go above and beyond nothing is too much trouble. Thank you for the care you gave to my uncle.

I was amazed at the care given to my mother in the 2 yrs she stayed at Oakbank. Great care, great staff, not only cared for my mother but were very concerned about my health, having been diagnosed with cancer.
