We first went to Oakfield Lodge with the idea that our dad would at first come for respite with a view to becoming a resident. We were met by Julia, customer relations manager. Julia was very friendly and she took great pride in escorting us around the home. Everywhere was bright and clean. All staff were very friendly. Dad stayed for respite and came home to see if he was going to be able to cope alone. After just two weeks, he announced that "he" had decided to live at Oakview Lodge. He liked the friendly staff and said that they genuinely cared for the residents. He liked the fact that it was kept very clean and most of all he liked the meals and the fact that everything was fresh. It was a fresh start for dad, and he is very happy.
Thank you for your kind review. We are pleased you are happy with all our services and care at Oakview Lodge.

I have enjoyed all aspects of Oakview Lodge. all staff outstanding & approachable. Maybe need a few more staff at times, they all work so hard. This is my 3rd visit to a Care Home so definitely the best. I cannot recommend it more. I was so doubtful about giving up my home but had trouble coping & was house-bound. I made the best decision & feel safe.

The home is in lovely surroundings, its managed well and the residents seem happy and very well looked after.
From the cleanliness, the facilities and services offered through to the general atmosphere, the friendly and helpful staff clearly go above and beyond to make everyone feel welcomed and looked after. Definitely deserving of a five star plus review.

From our first visit we were impressed with both the friendliness of the staff - and the layout and design of the building, with its many facilities. There is a wonderful sense of spaciousness and easy accessibility to all areas of the building. Much thought has gone into the interior design, which is bright and cheerful. Dad settled into the routine of the care home, and developed close bonds of friendship with many of the staff members. Dad could not have been in a better place to finish his days in comfort and peace - knowing that he had close friends always watching over him.
Thank you for your lovely review of Oakview Lodge Care & Nursing Home. We're so glad you felt positive about the home, our team, and the facilities from your first visit. It means so much to hear that your dad settled in well and built such special connections with our staff team. We are truly honoured to have cared for him.
I am totally happy with the care given to my mother Iris.

My husband arrived at the Oakview Lodge care home after several months of being in and out of hospital. From the time of arrival he has gradually improved cognitively, able to have a little conversation, enjoying his newspaper and watching some TV. All due to the constant care of the staff, nurses and carers at the home. His appetite from being non-existent to very poor while in hospital has now improved as well.
Thank you for your kind review. We are so pleased you feel happy with our care staff and the care your husband is receiving, and that he is feeling so much better.
My husband has not been there very long but the home is excellent.

My husband was welcomed to Oak View Lodge at the beginning of September. From my first visit I felt welcome and greeted ny everyone with a smile and a welcome greeting. During his month long stay my husband was treated as a special guest.The meal time menus were varied and freshly prepared and the portions were generous and there were drinks and a variety of snacks available all day. Midmorning and afternoon snacks were offered to residents. My husbands room was light, modern and comfortable. There was a sensitive mat beside his bed to alert staff if he got out of bed at night. My husband was well cared for and spoken to by name and the kind staff always knew where he was. Should he need long term residential care I would contact Oak View Lodge immediately.
