Spent a wonderful afternoon celebrating a residents special Birthday. The staff were great at helping the party atmosphere and dancing with residents and guests. Spirits were high and the dancing slow but everyone had a fab time. Wonderful to know that there are care homes where staff have a great relationship
and attitude with their residents.

My partner has been here since July 2023. The standards, as indicated below are very consistent. Every effort is made to ensure residents' comfort, safety needs are met. Visitors that I bring into visit always comment on the cleanliness, atmosphere and surroundings. If I have concerns they welcome any

Generally, we are pleased with the care and facilities that Mom receives. Some concerns when I have been with her one being she wanted the toilet but was told to wait until food was served at 5 pm, some 40 mins later she was attended to. Personally, I think the care home is understaffed. The staff here
work hard and are caring in their approach to residents. I feel that they are underappreciated by top management, more staff is required.
Reply from Pal Grewal, Manager at Oakview Care Home

I appreciate your kind words about the dedication and care provided by our staff, as well as your recognition of their hard work and caring approach. Our team is committed to ensuring the well-being and comfort of all our residents, and it means a great deal to hear your positive acknowledgement. I am sincerely sorry to hear about the incident where your mother was asked to wait for assistance, this does not reflect the standard of care we strive to provide. I have investigated the incident and put measures in place to prevent any reoccurrence. We continuously evaluate our staffing levels to ensure that residents receive prompt and high-quality care. Your feedback is invaluable in helping us improve, and I would request that you contact me directly if you have any concerns so matters can be addressed promptly. Thank you again for bringing this to our attention and for trusting us with your mother's care.

My husband dances with the staff and wouldn't with me when we married. I can't say how grateful me and my family are for how well he's taken care of. Everyone here is like family, he loves all the ladies like they are his girls. We know how bad some places are. We have the gold star home for my husband.
Thank you all for the way you take care of our beloved old grump.

A wonderful home is truly a place where you can leave a loved one knowing that they're being cared for in every way by a wonderful group of people. My dad has been a resident here for almost a year now and I can wholeheartedly say that he is given exceptional care by members of staff who really do care.
The home is always clean and tidy and most importantly safe and secure which means that its residents are able to roam around their unit without the worry of getting lost or falling. I am beyond happy with the standard of care provided and am so grateful to each and every individual who works around the clock to provide it. Staff are always welcoming and cheery often singing and dancing along with residents making sure the best time is had by all. Really and truly a 10/10 facility.

Thank you so much for taking the time to post such a wonderful review.

My grandad is on Beachview. I cannot recommend Oakview Home enough since being here in October 2024. Every time we have visited (7 days a week) my grandad has been busy enjoying all the activities, from baking, dancing, singing, church services, and activities, his been so busy and happy here. The staff
are amazing, the place isn't just a care home but a home from home. The activity coordinator is so helpful and ensures the residents are always entertained, busy and living their lives to their maximum potential.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.935)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.935) out of 10 for Oakview Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  1. The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 82 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 81 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 4.935 for Oakview Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (926 Excellents x 5) + (38 Goods x 4) + (11 Satisfactorys x 3) + (1 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 976 Ratings = 4.935
  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 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Oakview Care Home is based on 81 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 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4
    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 97 registered maximum number of service users is 19.4, which has been reached with 81 Positive reviews. Points = 1
  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.
