I can't thank the team at Oakbridge Intermediate Care Unit enough for the outstanding care they provided to my dad during his stay. After being discharged from hospital, he needed dedicated support and rehabilitation-and the staff at Oakbridge delivered that and more. We are incredibly grateful for
everything the staff did-they truly went above and beyond. Highly recommended.

My mother in law was in the Intermediate Care Unit for over 4 weeks. All of the staff were friendly, professional, made her visitors feel welcome and took great care of her. She enjoyed all of her meals, having a cuppa with family in the tv lounge or the cafe and getting fresh air in the gardens.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum moved here straight from hospital and was upset and apprehensive about the move.
The manager and the staff were great, after a couple of days mum settled, actually quite enjoying her time there. Mum was well looked after, the care she received was second to none. The staff were kind and patient
with her, from staff at the cafe making sure she got her favourite treat (hot chocolate /extra whipped cream) to the reception/office staff stopping for a chat. The staff involved with Mum were beyond excellent, always chatting and making her laugh (a few staff members were outstanding and I felt confident Mum was getting the best care possible). The ladies who run the activities were lovely to her too. She has now moved in with me but Mum really loved the staff and her time at Oakbridge. This is a lovely place, very well run with the highest standards of respect and dignity in dealing with residents.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mum moved to the intermediate care unit after a prolonged hospital stay. A very sad, scared lady in a lot of pain.
The manager and her staff have shown my mum (and our family) so much kindness as she adjusted to her move. The care staff are absolutely wonderful and have gone above and beyond to
make my mum feel relaxed and happy. Physiotherapists and podiatrists have worked to improve her mobility, and the visiting GP has quickly dealt with any issues that have arisen. Mum is now due to leave to go to her permanent care home, and she asked me if she could just stay in the unit at Oakbridge! We can’t thank the team enough for everything they have done in rehabilitating Mum.

My mother was sent to the Pine Trees (intermediate care unit) in late February. I have to say the care and rehabilitation she received were excellent. The staff were kind, caring, patient, and always smiling. All the staff became firm friends. My mother was very sad to leave the unit and move on to
a residential care home.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My close friend is resident in the rehabilitation unit, she was anxious about going there from hospital and felt she wouldn’t settle.
I have visited regularly and as a carer myself I was very impressed with the care she received all the staff were very efficient. Friendly and attentive to my friend's
needs.
Tomorrow my friend is moving to a nursing home and she has said she would rather stay at Oakburn and that she would miss the staff who she views as friends. Thank you all for making her stay a home from home.

Review from Anne B (Sister of Resident) published on 9 March 2021 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was very anxious when it was suggested that my Brother was to go to the Oakbridge Assessment Centre for 4 weeks to be assessed. The Unit he was in is called Pine Trees. I can honestly say that during his stay he received excellent care and the unit manager is exceptional as are her staff. During this
period, it was not possible to enter the home because of the pandemic so there are some aspects of the home I cannot comment on, however, the most important thing is good care and he absolutely received that whilst in Oakbridge. His four week assessment turned into over two months due to various circumstances and he transferred today to another care setting run by his family. I would certainly recommend Oakbridge and in particular the Pine Trees unit and excellent staff. A big thank you to everyone.

My relative was in the Oakminster Intermediate Assessment Unit for assessment with a view to being placed into the community with assistance. He is now being, successfully, helped to move into permanent sheltered tenancy. He has Parkinson's and during his stay of six weeks, he has received all the possible
care and attention he has required. The staff have been so caring/friendly interested and been to help him back to reality. e has received, care and attention with dignity at all times.

Overall Experience 4.0 out of 5
My friend has been a resident here for 7 years and the standards of care have reached a much higher level in the last couple of years. In my opinion, much of the improvement is due to a certain member of staff who is very caring and also uses a very common sense approach in dealing with problems/issues
that can arise. Her ways have spread and the current nurses and carers have a lovely way when dealing with residents. The entertainment has always been good and continues to be so.

I think the staff do a fantastic job at this home.
Since my mum has been taken into this care home, her overall wellbeing has improved dramatically. I can’t thank the staff at Oakbridge care home enough. My mum loves being in this place even though her memory is not great she is very grateful. Thank

The care home was described to us by a social worker as not the best but the care is. I, my beloved mother and our whole family totally agree.

Staff have been great with my Dad. They have encouraged him to take part in activities. He has improved a lot since he came into the home. He has put on weight and now takes part in lots of activities. I am very happy with support Oakbridge has given him. It means I have lots of time just to be with
him.

Current Review Score: 7.7 (7.693)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 7.7 (7.693) out of 10 for Oakbridge Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.5 out of 5 from 2 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 3.2 out of 5 from 2 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 4.450 for Oakbridge Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (14 Excellents x 5) + (3 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 20 Ratings = 4.45
  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 3.243 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oakbridge Care Home is based on 2 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 = 3.125
    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 85 registered maximum number of service users is 17. 2 Positive Reviews ÷ 17 = 0.118
  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.
