My grandmother was very much not the type of person at all to ever end up in a care home, she was reluctant all her life. Due to local reviews, The Oaks was the only one she would ever consider going to. We were very worried that she would want to come out soon because of her character, but since she has been there, she has never wanted to leave. The standard of care is excellent, and she continuously says that she cannot pick any faults with The Oaks at all. We are very grateful to all the staff there for looking after her so well.
Thank you so much for your very positive feedback which I will share with the staff team. We are delighted to be able to support your Grandmother and also you as a family and feel already that we have developed positive partnerships with you.

From the day my nan came to The Oaks we all as a family were welcomed into their open arms. I visited Nan in her new home twice a week, different days and different times, every time my nan was very well cared for by all the staff. Nan was only there for just over 6 months before she passed, the exceptional care that Nan received during her end-of-life care was second to none. Some of the staff members even came into the home on their days off, that made us know as a family how much they cared for Nan and how well they looked after her on the days we weren't there. We were able to come and go as we pleased when Nan became end of life, we basically moved in for a couple of nights it was great. After trying the food it is beautiful. Not like school dinners like I first thought, it's full of flavour and always looked very appealing! But honestly thank you all on floor two I will miss you all, you've been amazing. Thank you for looking after my nanny when me and grandad couldn't anymore.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us such a lovely review. It was a privilege to care for your Nan and to make such wonderful relationships with you all as a family, we miss your visits and hope that you will keep in touch.
I may be biased, but my grandmother is one of the most incredible women I know. After visiting The Oaks, I can take comfort in the fact that she is treated as that. The staff are beautiful and personable. The food is great and facility is clean and welcoming.

Thank you for this lovely response our teams always try their very best to make our home as much a home from home as they can I will share this feedback as I always do with the various teams.
I have been visiting Mum at The Oaks for two to three years from Australia. As hard as it is coming and going it does provide comfort to me knowing the home takes such good care of Mum. She is as happy as she can be.

The staff are kind and friendly and nothing a problem, spending time with him for his needs. Updates and communication is very good. Nice to see staff working hard and with a sense of humour at the right time.
Thank you for your review, I will share with my team, the time taken by families assists other families who are looking for services so it is really important.
Overall we find the care home good at the moment but dinners for Mum are not that good. I have to fetch more gravy every time I am here after telling them about it. Mum seems to be happy here so that's all that we want for her.

Thank you for your feedback. It is really useful, we will address the issues regarding gravy with the catering team and staff immediately. If there are any other areas where you feel we need to improve to get 5 stars across the board please pop in and discuss with either myself or my deputy.
Excellent nursing and support care received by my wife for the few weeks she was there. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and supportive, especially the lead nurse. Overall the building was clean, tidy, and well maintained with good facilities.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us this response at what we know will be a very difficult time for you and your family. We were delighted to have been able to offer your dear wife a more normal environment than a hospital ward for the short time we could that also enabled you as a family to have some degree of normality and privacy.

The family had their doubts about dad coming into The Oaks, and I visited with 2 sons to meet staff and look around. I had already met the Manager who I found very friendly and informative. We found the residents looked content, only one said she would prefer not to be there! The staff were friendly and helpful. The home is modern and very clean and warm. I have visited frequently since he came to live here, often around mealtime. The choice of meals, fresh cooked always smells delicious and my husband eats well. He is encouraged to join in the variety of occupations from craft and painting etc to live musical entertainment, which I have attended and was very good. Encouraged, not forced to attend. In the warmer weather, there are lovely accessible gardens to enjoy tea and cake, with family members or just on your own if you wish. My family and I, couldn't be happier with the home and care he gets. Very many thanks.
We would like to thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. This helps those families who are looking for services for the first time enormously. I will share this with the team.

Thank you for leaving us a response the information is accessed by families considering services and first-hand feedback from those who have tried it is always the best. I will share this with our team.

There was a good safety procedure upon entering The Oaks, ensuring we signed in and code-protected doors. My mother-in-law was well-dressed and had just finished her lunch, we went to the church service where she enjoyed the singing and prayers. Upon going back upstairs to her room, which was clean and tidy, she was taken to the bathroom before resting for the afternoon. The staff at The Oaks are friendly and caring towards residents each time we visit, overall this home is meeting all our expectations.
I will share this with the team as I do all feedback.
Just want to praise the staff and management for the excellent care of my mother and the smooth organisation of running The Oaks Newtown.

My husband was brought in for end-of-life care on the 18th of January. The care he is receiving is excellent, nothing is too much trouble. I find the staff very helpful and friendly. My husband has settled in really well. I would definitely recommend The Oaks Care Home, 100%.

Thank you for your positive response, the team really do work hard and palliative care is something they are very proud to be able to deliver to our residents. Working with families closely is really part and parcel of the roles we all play and having positive relationships supports us all on a day-to-day basis.
My mum has had the best Christmas for over twenty years with music, singing and decorations, it was amazing and she thoroughly enjoyed herself. The Christmas dinner was wonderful and the staff were happy and making a lovely atmosphere. Thank you.

We would like to thank you for leaving us this review. Living in a care home is often difficult at first for some residents and particularly at Christmas time when memories of past Christmases come flooding back. We are delighted that, in your mum's case, we made it such a positive experience. Our team really do go that extra mile.

The staff are amazing and care for your loved ones as if its their own family. They are trustworthy and can't do enough for you. They even look after the family, constantly checking if we need anything, drinks or food. We are so lucky to have their support. My mum is so happy and content as she can be with the circumstances. The home is always spotless.

Our staff are genuinely affected when we get to this stage of one of our residents' lives and deliver the care with great affection and tenderness and due to the close relationships that we develop with our families this care always extends to them.

I have been using the home for respite for the last 3 months. Staff are always friendly and professional. Housekeeping are spotless and nothing is too much trouble. Family can visit any time they wish. The management team seems well involved and their door is always open even for minor issues. If something is raised it gets actioned.
Thank you for your very positive review we have been very pleased to have supported you through these few months all in an effort to get you closer to your home and very soon to be leaving us and returning home. We hope that you will keep in touch with us and pop in for a coffee when you do leave.

With extensive nursing experience, my journey began over 20 years ago as a Carer in a care home in Bristol. I later trained as a Nurse and, after qualifying and gaining a range of experiences, transitioned into community nursing. I worked in Northamptonshire and Powys for 12 years before becoming a specialist Lymphoedema Nurse, a role I held for six years.
After nearly 20 years in the NHS, I was ready for a change. My experience visiting residential homes—both as a Community Nurse and a Specialist Nurse—gave me valuable insight into care home settings, making this career transition a natural fit. Though this is my first management role, I bring a wealth of clinical experience and a passion for learning.
As Clinical Lead at The Oaks, I have the privilege of remaining hands-on with residents while also working behind the scenes to ensure we deliver the highest standard of care. I am incredibly proud to work here, alongside a wonderful team of nurses and carers who share the same dedication and commitment.
Caring for the elderly has always been close to my heart. At just 14 years old, I volunteered with Age Concern, visiting older people in the community. Working here has reminded me of the profound impact even small gestures can have on those who are no longer as independent as they once were. Seeing the joy and laughter of our residents is the most rewarding part of my role, and I feel truly privileged to play a part in shaping services that provide them with dignity, comfort, and exceptional care.
