Despite my Grannys comples care needs, she is always very well cared for. As someone working in healthcare, I know how much work it can be to care properly for someone like my Granny. My family and I can trust Oulton Manor fully, knowing her carers love her and that they have her best interests at heart.
We are so grateful.

I cannot thank Oulton Manor enough on behalf of my mothers whole family.
She is nearing 95 quite a stubborn lady with her strong character opinions.
Countless times asked due to her extremely limited mobility not to walk with zimmer frame alone, to always request help from a carer.
She's always had
a bee in her bonnet that she must have clothes out ready for the morning. (Many times told by carers they will bring clothes for her to pick)
She fell cutting her head Sunday 2nd January after lunch, an ambulance was called.
3 members of staff went above and beyond their remit.
To which I am very grateful.
I believe senior carer, liaised with me for all updates.
The staff member who checked her every half hour, during the night, after having xrays and MRI scan. Most of all I think the young carer, she never left my injured and frightened Mum's side over 4 hours awaiting ambulance.
Thank you Oulton Manor I always knew you gave that extra other establishments would not be able to give.

Oulton Manor is amazing for my Dad he has completely turned a corner in this home. The staff and management are brilliant, so helpful and friendly. The home is spotless, our experience has been second to none. Can not complain about anything. We thought we were going to lose Dad with his deep depression
but he is like a new man being in Oulton Manor. 5 Stars to everyone.

My mum moved in to Oulton Manor in October and received a very warm welcome from all the staff. It was a very difficult decision for me and my sister but the team at Oulton Manor made the process as easy as they could and we feel so lucky to have secured a place for our mum there. All the staff are
lovely and caring and nothing is too much trouble. All aspects of her care have been discussed with us all her care needs have been met allowing mum to maintain some independence and dignity. Thank you Oulton Manor!

Both my parents are residents at Oulton Manor due to suffering strokes and other medical conditions in June. The service by the staff has been nothing short of exemplary in all areas, to a challenging situation with regards to my parents illness and conditions, and I could not have expected or asked
for better.

My mother-in-law has just stayed there for two weeks. Excellent service and so friendly. She went in smiling and came out smiling. Couldn't do enough for us. So happy with the excellent service. Will be using this beautiful home again.

My 95-year-old mother came for a month of respite care in August. I felt very confident leaving her, and the care she has been given has been excellent throughout her stay. The staff have been delightful and caring towards her. She was very unsure about coming but left saying she will definitely be
returning. I can’t thank you all enough.

My 89-year-old mum with Parkinson's stayed for a month’s respite. She was well looked after. Whilst we had some minor concerns, these were brought to the attention of the management and were speedily dealt with.
Having collected my mum, we have spoken to the manager and mentioned some specific issues
(meal times, application of medication, access to rooms, shower), explanations were given for these issues.
My mum is looking forward to her return visit.

Poor reception service, often doesn’t exist. Phone doesn’t answer and even when you book an appointment and arrive on time to visit the resident, it’s like they don’t know you’re coming. I’ve waited in the lobby for 15 mins today waiting for someone to answer the door, I had to phone in to get any attention
then wait a bit longer. Reception staff needed at a desk on the weekend, it is very frustrating. What’s the point in booking a slot to then be 20 minutes waiting to see the family member. Very poor service makes visits difficult. Please improve.

Reply from Victoria Towse, Manager at Oulton Manor

Thank you for taking the time to review Oulton Manor and we apologise for the issues that you have highlighted. We have discussed these with you and we are in the process of addressing these concerns. Our team’s priority is ensuring the safety and wellbeing of our residents, however, we do endeavour to answer the telephone and our door in a timely manner.

My stepmother has been at the home for over three years. She is very happy there. The staff are extremely kind to her, and I know she is safe and well looked after. Many thanks to all the staff, particularly Calverley Wing, for all their help, kindness and support over the years.

Mum has only been in the home for 2-weeks, but I am impressed by the care taken by all the staff to settle her in and to help her adjust to her new home. From our first visit to see what the home was like, we have been impressed by the friendliness of all the staff and their willingness to answer all
our questions and provide us with all the information, we needed about fees, care and meals etc. The home is very well furnished and is more like a hotel with lovely lounges and dining rooms on each floor that are spacious and look lovely with tablecloths etc. The rooms are nicely furnished, and each one has a beautiful ensuite shower room. Everyone at Oulton Manor has been helpful since Mum moved in, providing her with a phone and making sure her TV worked properly etc. It is great to see that she is lovely and clean and well looked after.

The accommodation and grounds are hotel standard, a fabulous large lounge with bar. Lovely dining room with tablecloths and material napkins. Residents are treated with dignity and care. These last 14-months have been awful, but I have been relieved to know that he was being well looked after. Lots
of the staff have been there since he moved in, and they have been like his second family. They genuinely care and support him and have helped him retain his dignity and independence as much as possible. Always helpful, and ring to update if Dad is unwell. Excellent nursing care (district nurse) and local doctors, who regularly visit. Grounds colourfully all year.

Our mother has been a resident at Oulton Manor for over 3 years and during that time her care has been exceptional especially during the last 12 covid related months. By having a qualified nurse leading the team and a weekly home check by the nurse prescriber we know medical problems are dealt with
quickly. Again keeping regular staff give us confidence that residents' personalities are understood and we know that the home is always looking at ways to make the day to day living of the residents as comfortable as possible.

I can’t praise Oulton Manor enough for the care, support and friendship they have shown for my father who moved in with them in the middle of the pandemic. He suffers from Dementia and to know he is safe and well looked after is such a comfort to us. The staff go above and beyond, they are wonderful!

The most important comment is that Mum is very happy at Oulton Manor. She is well cared for and the staff are great but she is an independent-minded person and this is still respected. The peace of mind this gives us as a family is very important. I would add that the home has handled the coronavirus
situation well with access maintained despite the necessary restrictions. I think communication with family could be more structured to include perhaps an annual review meeting with the manager to discuss concerns, care plan, future needs but given the change of management and pandemic, this isn't feasible at the moment. General communication with staff is very good and I want to make a special mention to a team member on Rockingham who is a real asset to the home and to social care - friendly, professional and caring.

We have found the management and staff in the home to be extremely professional and caring. They have provided invaluable support during some very difficult times and have made our mother feel welcome and safe. Our mum says she is so glad we took her to live at Oulton Manor and it is the best thing
we have done for her! I think that says it all.

Luxury care home, more like a hotel. Carers really go that extra mile with their care, nothing is ever too much for the resident or relative. Would recommend Oulton Manor to anyone looking for outstanding care for their loved ones.

My mum has been in Oulton Manor since it opened. Her care there has been wonderful. After viewing many care homes, I cried coming out of so many as I couldn't imagine leaving Mum there. When I went into Oulton Manor, I was blown away. It was like nothing I had ever seen and Mum has been incredibly well
looked after the whole time she has been there. She has dementia and has had some difficult times, but the staff have been wonderful. If ever there have been any issues, the manager's door has always been open and things have been changed and altered to make Mum's life easier and more comfortable. The decor and rooms are amazing, the food is varied and good and the entertainment is varied. The staff really do care. They are quick to get in touch to pass on feedback and send photographs by email, they offer Skype calls and their dedication during the current pandemic has been incredible. I would not hesitate to recommend this care home.

Current Review Score: 10.0 (9.954)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 10 (9.954) out of 10 for Oulton Manor is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 42 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.954 for Oulton Manor is calculated as follows: ( (479 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 501 Ratings = 4.954

  • b) 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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oulton Manor is based on 42 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 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 77 registered maximum number of service users is 15.4, which has been reached with 42 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
