Oulton Manor is a smart and well-kept home. The entrance is welcoming and the lounge is a comfortable place for residents and visitors, when allowed access. During lockdown the staff have worked tirelessly to keep everyone safe. Relatives have been kept up to date with all government changes and the
daily routines in the home. I think the residents are feeling the strain as time goes on as obviously the staff have to put the stringent rules to which leaves less time for interaction. Hopefully, things will improve and everyone can relax a bit more.

My mother-in-law chose Oulton Manor as her permanent residence following a respite visit earlier in 2019. Settling took time as she is a very independent person but the staff have helped tremendously to help her settle and to reassure us, her family that she is ok. Staff have time to talk and appear
to know the resident's strengths and weaknesses, but they do promote independence as well.
The staff work very hard in ‘normal circumstances‘ but they have worked tirelessly to keep the residents and staff safe and well throughout the covid pandemic. They have achieved this so far, and it is thanks to the management as well as her team, that their covid free status remains, long may it continue.
Email communication has been very good between the home and relatives to keep us informed of important and relevant information.
Thanks to everyone at Oulton Manor for all you do and for being our loved one's family when we can’t be with them.

Covid has been a huge challenge for everyone but I would like to say a huge thank you to all the staff for everything they are doing to keep my Mum and the other residents safe and happy. I really appreciate the weekly newsletters, it makes me smile to see everything my Mum and the other residents are
doing - when we ask her on the phone she doesn’t always remember to tell us, so it is great to have the photos to prompt our conversations! My Mum recently answered the phone singing and told me she had forgotten how to be miserable which is a remarkable achievement by the home. Yesterday I was able to see my Mum for a 30-minute window visit, she looked extremely well and was in high spirits which was wonderfully reassuring. I am so glad my Mum is being cared for in Oulton Manor and I cannot praise the home and staff enough. Thank you.

In October 2016 we had huge problems with the care home in which my Mum had been a resident for 15 months. We made arrangements to visit Oulton Manor with a view to moving Mum into their care. This was the best move we could have made. Due to Mum's illness, she has not been the easiest of residents
but, all the staff over the last three and a half years have been tolerant, caring and understanding. Lately Mum has deteriorated and during a very difficult time for all concerned, we could not have had better care for her. Three members of staff in particular have been amazing and I am sure the manager is very proud of all her staff. It has not been easy for them at all.

In a few days, as a consequence of a surprise, serious, medical diagnosis, of a family member, the manager and staff at Oulton Manor enabled me to arrange residential care for our mother. Communication and response time with the manager was excellent and rapid. Oulton Manor is close to where mum lives
and so friends visit her, which is a great help. My travel time to Oulton Manor is many hours drive; the manager and staff have been a great support. Within a couple of days, my mother had settled, was content and comfortable. The environment of Oulton Manor is friendly and stimulating. Cheerful and caring, the staff involve mum in the many daily and varied activities. As a family, we are indebted to the manager and staff at Oulton Manor for the care and support provided. Mum is clearly benefitting, physically and mentally from being resident at Oulton Manor.

I would definitely recommend Oulton Manor which is a modern, clean and friendly caring environment. I have two relatives currently residing at the home and both are kept safe and are well looked after. Staff are kind and very friendly from the Manager to the cleaning staff and they are sensitive to
the individual care needs of my relatives. There is a wide variety of activities available and staff seek to flex activities to suit individual needs. The Home is always looking to put on different events for relatives and residents and takes residents on trips outside the Home. The Home seeks to collect residents and relatives views and staff are open to listening to views about how they can improve what services are provided. Residents are consulted about food menus and they can cater for different tastes. Not everything is perfect, but the great thing is that Management and staff want you to work openly with them to make sure that care is consistently delivered to a high standard.

As a member of the community involved in dementia support and awareness, I have found Oulton Manor to be very aware of the needs of those affected by dementia, including very important support for the family members. Oulton Manor is a very inviting home from the moment you enter. The staff are the most
important in any care facility, and the staff at Oulton are very professional, courteous and polite. When speaking to residents and family, the comments are always very positive, management are always available with an open door policy to ensure the smooth running of Oulton Manor. Everyone goes beyond the usual expectation of support staff, the personal involvement gives so much respect and dignity to each and every resident together with the family environment felt by everyone. I have been involved with Oulton Manor since it was opened, and have nothing but praise for the staff, and their ongoing commitment to provide the best care they can.

I cannot recommend this care home enough. From the moment that the deputy manager came to assess mum at our home in a desperate time of need during the Christmas holiday period, to the day she passed away, she could not have been looked after any better.


The manager leads a very committed and caring

team of professionals. I had zero cause for concern with the care mum received and felt part of the Oulton Manor family. Often hotel like care homes are judged by the nice environment but with Oulton Manor, you have both this and the very best of care. Nothing is ever too much trouble, you can relax knowing that your loved one is in good hands.


As a dementia unit, they fully understand the challenges and recognise everyone is an individual so should have personal care to suit their needs.


Going ABCD with staff like a certain care assistance, taking a real interest in mum and to a certain senior care assistant and the manager giving up part of their Saturday to bring mum to her granddaughter's wedding! This is a special home!

Oulton, in my opinion, is the best there is. The home is beautiful and the staff are lovely.
Care is the best I’ve seen and my mum is very well looked after. Previously she wouldn’t join in activities or get involved but now she joins in with everything! She has a better social life than I do! She
is very happy and very content and I know she is safe and well looked after.
Fab team and fab managers. Wouldn’t want my mum anywhere else. Thank you for everything you do.

We have just completed our first review of Dad's care. I can honestly say that it was one of the most traumatic experiences taking the decision to place our Dad in a Care home. Oulton Manor made the transition so much easier for Dad and us and continues to make us think that we did make the right choice.
The staff go above and beyond to ensure residents and family feel included in everything which is all we can ask.
We have also just moved my Father in law into Oulton Manor and again were impressed at how everyone made the process so easy for us all.
We really can’t thank you all enough.

Oulton Manor cared for my mother in the final stages of a progressive terminal brain tumour. Their commitment to her care and the help and support they offered both mum and the family was exceptional. The staff go above and beyond and are 100% committed to the residents. There is always something
going on to entertain the residents whilst plenty of space for them to have privacy if desired.

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.
