Oxford Manor Care Home

When Mum first arrived she was very unwell, but due to the support and input of staff she has recovered well.

I am very happy that my uncle has moved to Oxford Manor, the staff have been wonderful and made my wife feel very welcome. I would recommend this home to anyone who's looking for care.

I am very happy here. They're all very kind to me and friendly and I like it when they come in for a chat. It's nice having people around. I'm very comfortable and I like my room. I like the view, not another house in sight, just the fields. You don't get that these days.

My Mother had a lovely time (on a mixed floor of residents with dementia and non-dementia) during her respite stay. She was well cared for, ate well, and actually wanted to stay on when I asked if she wanted to come home now!

Our visit to the care home was lovely and the young man made the experience even more special. I am so thankful for all the staff there for looking after my friend. I am definitely looking forward to my next visit.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place. It is a care home where every member of staff really cares.

Visited a long-time friend of the family and she looked so happy and well. She was dressed like she always used to be. Thank you to the brilliant staff for looking after her. We will be back to visit her soon.

Thank you for the kindness shown to our dear friend. Couldn't ask for kinder staff and a management team. Clean, professional, lovely sized bedroom. She is always happy and connected when we visit. Could not recommend highly enough.

Excellent care at Alma Barn. Friendly staff who know all of the residents well and give them attention. Great range of activities for residents to join in with. My relative is happy and doing well here.

I wish I'd moved her out of Alma Barn much sooner than I did.

The staff at Alma Barn are excellent, very professional and friendly. Nothing is too much trouble and my mother is in safe hands we have no worries knowing Mum is being looked after and cared for. Alma Barn is a lovely care home. Staff are available 24/7.

My husband was a resident for 19 months. He was always treated professionally, respectfully, and competently standards in other areas were variable. However, in the latter months, my husband became increasingly ill and the staff were wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble. He was treated with genuine kindness. The care given was second to none. All the staff at Alma Barn are truly kind, gentle, and professional. They deliver personalised care to all individuals. My husband was lucky to know them.

My mother has been a resident at Alma Barn Lodge Care Home since November 2022. She has received good individual care over subsequent months and it was therefore an easier decision for my father to join her in the home when he could no longer be cared for in his own house. There have clearly been challenging times for the Lodge as has been the case across the sector, but staff and local management have really tried very hard to do their best for residents, and we have been happy as a family tom commit to them going forward.

My parents spent two weeks in Alma Barn, having respite care and I was very pleased with the kindness of the staff. My parents wanted to be able to sleep in the same room as they do at home and much trouble was taken to make a bedroom with two comfortable beds in one room with a sitting room next door. The rooms were clean and well appointed and as they were up on the second floor, the views were wonderful, which my father appreciated particularly. The food was good and they were well looked after. Thank you Alma Barn for making our first experience of respite care a positive one.

My wife has now been in the care home for over 2 months and has settled in well thanks to the friendly atmosphere of all the staff. When I visit, all the staff have made the effort to call you by your first name, which is good. Management keep me up to date with my wife's needs and moods which puts my mind to rest that her needs are being cared for. In the first few weeks, we had a few complaints regarding general cleanliness, this has now been attended to.

From our first visit to Alma Barn, we found the staff, the facilities, and the home to be excellent. My mother has been well cared for and she is enjoying her time here. Keep up the good work.

It has been good to be part of the start of this care home. All brand new - delightful decor! Staff are warm, caring and ensure the welfare of the residents is paramount. As a visiting relative, I feel welcomed and am confident that my beloved mum is being well looked after. Catering could be upgraded.

When I first walked through the doors of Alma Barn Lodge, I felt not only the people but the building wrapped itself around me - I knew there and then this was the right place for my friend and the family agreed. My dear friend spent her final days being cared for by people that really cared, she loved her room and the beautiful views.

My Mum went for respite care at Alma Barn but realised very quickly that her quality of life would be greatly improved by becoming a full-time resident. This decision became apparent very quickly, not just because the home is a lovely building but the helpfulness of the staff and the atmosphere you feel could not be faulted.

Excellent care home, lovely people to deal with across the board including customer relations, admin, nursing, and resident care. Looked for a local care home after my mother became unable to live independently through ill health but lived 200 miles away. Alma Barn Lodge Care Home stood out and they have been a joy to work with and arranged for my mother to move there, where she is very happy. There is a family atmosphere with all the staff knowing the residents by name, knowledgeable about their likes, and having an active interest in their health. The residents are treated with such care, kindness, and dignity. I feel my mother has been looked after to a very high standard. I'm informed when there are any changes to mum's health, and I feel very comfortable talking to the Customer Relations Manager and the nursing staff about any matters at all. They are very active in getting any additional medical attention including district nurses, doctors, and hospital. Brilliant care home, lovely people, happy mum!
