The carefully thought-out décor of the home gives it a homely feel while also being of a high-quality that would be expected in a hotel.

Four Oaks Nursing Home strives to enhance residents' lives, with facilities including a fully-stocked library, a sunroom and a tearoom that is ideal for welcoming visitors.

Activities play a large role at Four Oaks. The activities coordinator organises a varied programme of activities and events and residents can enjoy regular trips out.

Four Oaks Nursing Home places great importance on the lives residents led before going to the home. Staff spend time with them and family members to find out about their tastes, history, hobbies and interests. They see family and friends as their partners in caring for the individual and they welcome feedback and suggestions at all times. The information shared helps to create individual care plans that are crucial in providing the best care and help staff get to know the individual. Residents are helped to achieve their aims by taking part in meetings, surveys and one-to-ones.

The home is continually committed to specialist training, which enables staff to help individuals express their needs and maintain a high level of independence, self-worth and wellbeing.

Review from Lorraine C (Daughter of Resident) published on 10 June 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
My mother has been a resident for over six months and for the first few months her behaviour was very challenging to say the least. Staff worked with her and together with their help and the right medication she has become settled. Staff are great and keep you up to date. The activity staff have worked
hard during the Covid pandemic to arrange video calls to families with their loved ones. The only concern at the home is the quality of food which is not always warm or appetising and this does need to be addressed.
Reply from Kean Mason-Buckley, Home Manager at Four Oaks Nursing HomeThank you for your comments and your encouraging words about the home. I acknowledge the concern with food and I will address with the kitchen to improve this area. If there is anything else that we can do to support you as a family then please let me know and we will do all that we can. Our service extends out to you too.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
A friendly home for mum and her visitors; with many genuinely caring, approachable staff covering all levels and roles, nothing is too much trouble with staff always happy to help.
The well-tended gardens are perfect for outdoor activities and socialising during the summer months. The activities team
work extremely hard in expanding a range of activities to suit residents' abilities and interests; painting proving very popular with Mum.
In choosing a suitable care home; it was important that in addition to providing safe, quality care that the home's environment should be bright and cheery with space and privacy for making regular family visits enjoyable both for Mum and ourselves. Four Oaks met our criteria perfectly.
Pleased that the current manager operates an open-door policy to discuss any residents’ and relatives’ concerns or needs, also, that there are some great ideas for ongoing improvements.
We’ve no misgivings for making Four Oaks our first choice of care home for our Mum.

Review from Susanne J (Daughter of Resident) published on 24 February 2020 Submitted via Website • Report
Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
I was so relieved when my dad was given a place at Four Oaks as he had been stuck in the hospital for a few months and it was felt that it would not be right for him to return home due to his needs. He was welcomed so nicely by all staff and commented to my mum after a couple of days; that he felt that
it 'would do us nicely', and I feel he is right as his surroundings at Four Oaks are superb. His room was freshly painted and was made appropriate to him. Despite a few emergencies stays back in the hospital, Dad has settled in extremely well. He is treated with respect as well as affection by the staff who support him well with his self-care and he interacts well with them. Dad has had excellent care from the nursing staff who deal with his complex medical needs very well. He eats well again and is quick to go to the dining area when he hears the food trolleys arrive. I feel confident that Dad is being well looked after and would like to thank the staff wholeheartedly for their care.

Always happy with the care of my mum, if I wasn't I would say. She is treated with the utmost respect, I feel I am just visiting her at home but there are lots of people there. It is definitely prestige care for her and is what she deserves, every aspect is important and this is fulfilled for her.

Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5
Mum has been here for approximately 2 months now. She had a long spell in hospital prior to this and needed nursing care going forward.
This was the first place we viewed and we immediately felt it was the right place for her. This is the first time I've visited mum here as I live in Jersey and am
so pleased with the standard of care she is receiving. She is obviously being well looked after and all the staff have been brilliant with her. She said to me today this was the best place she has lived in, they are very caring.

Due to circumstances beyond our control, we had to find a care home for our Mother. We visited quite a few, most were unsuitable to her needs, then we were offered Four Oaks. Mum moved in in January 2017. We have found the carers are above and beyound, the care or Mother is receiving shows in her wellbeing.
Her room is spotless, this is down to the caring domestic staff who also go above and beyond. All staff chat whilst tending to our Mother which keeps her involved. All in all, we feel we can come away knowing our Mother is in safe hands.

2 x daily activities. Friendly staff make an effort to get to know the residents and care for all their needs. Patients are not left waiting when in need of attention. The quality of food is excellent. The residents really feel at home here and happy. My father feels settled here and this gives me peace
of mind.

Having visited over 20 care homes we were very relieved to find Four Oaks a clean, secure, caring home for my brother, which gives me a clear conscience in placing him there. It has a new team of staff clearly focused on delivering a warm and welcoming environment, both for the client, family and friends.

My husband has been a resident here since the home first opened last summer.
He settled well in his new surroundings and we enjoyed the garden and sun lounge during those first months.
The staff team has been caring and hard-working through the past eight months while gradually welcoming more residents
and taking on more staff.
A wide range of activities and entertainment has been introduced very successfully.
Christmas was lovely.
I know that my husband is well cared for and I, too, always feel welcome as there is always a friendly, homely atmosphere.

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.902)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.902) out of 10 for Four Oaks Nursing 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 22 Reviews in the last 24 months.
  2. The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 22 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 4.902 for Four Oaks Nursing Home is calculated as follows: ( (231 Excellents x 5) + (21 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 254 Ratings = 4.902
  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 Four Oaks Nursing Home is based on 22 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 20 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews, 0.05 Points for the next five Positive Reviews, and finally 0.025 Points for the next ten Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.050, 7th = 0.050, 8th = 0.050, 9th = 0.050, 10th = 0.050, 11th = 0.025, 12th = 0.025, 13th = 0.025, 14th = 0.025, 15th = 0.025, 16th = 0.025, 17th = 0.025, 18th = 0.025, 19th = 0.025, 20th = 0.025) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.05 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 + 0.025 = 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 62 registered maximum number of service users is 12.4, which has been reached with 22 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.
