My husband has been at Oak View for just over three months. In that time, despite his dementia deteriorating rapidly, he has always been well looked after, treated with kindness and care, supporting him to retain his dignity and independence, as much as possible. He is safe, warm, and comfortable in
a lovely environment. The staff really understand the meaning of 'care', which is a joy to see in sometimes very challenging circumstances.

My dad has been living at this care home since August 2025 and overall we've been very pleased with the care he's received. The staff are kind, patient and caring and they treat residents with dignity & respect. Communication with the family has been good, and its reassuring to know eh is being
looked after properly. The home itself is clean and welcoming and there's a calm, friendly atmosphere. Well done.

My husband is cared for in Oak View with kindness & compassion. His food is carefully and thoughtfully prepared and the staff look after him with care and attention. All the staff are kind and thoughtful and carry out their duties with cheerful good humour. They are always smiling and providing a
kind and happy atmosphere for the patients. I cannot praise them highly enough for the excellent job they carry out.

Excellent home from cleaners to management. A friendly welcome on each visit the resident i visit is all care and is always washed dressed and comfortable. The food is a good variety and seldom does she leave any. The room is bright clean and comfortable

I cannot express how excellent the care of my mum was at Oak View Care Home. She was there 4 years and the love and care for her was excellent. We always felt welcome when we visited and nothing was too much trouble. The staff were so caring and understanding when my mum became poorly and she could
not have been in a better place. Thank you to all the staff and keep up your good work.

My husband has only been a resident for a short time. From what I have seen the staff seem very caring and are aware of the movements of all the residents. I am made welcome when I visit. My husband is non-verbal but he smiles a lot so I assume that he is happy. I am sure that he is very well cared
for.

Since coming into the care home my relative has received the most careful and professional treatment In all my dealings I have found all the staff most helpful and friendly it is such a comfort to know that my relative is being so well looked after

The staff have been great in helping my husband settle in, he is getting there slowly.

My experience so far has been fantastic, right from the reception, the home presents a warm and welcoming environment. The staff are kind and caring to residents and it's not surprising that the residents and their family members feel at home.
Residents are engaged in fun-filled meaningful
activities and of course, the nutritional needs of residents are catered for by the great cooks. Residents also enjoy their individualised personal space. A great home indeed.
27 March 2025
Residents are well cared for. Staff are always welcoming, and refreshments offered on every visit. Staff interaction with residents is friendly. Mum always enjoys her meals.
The upstairs lounge is bright and comfortable and there are always staff present. The lounge has an outlook over the
recreation ground so plenty of activities to be seen.

My Husband was placed here as an emergency respite care but from the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with care and helpfulness and a genuine interest in the needs of my Husband. We have very good communication with the Management team and all the staff we meet are friendly and helpful.
He has
settled in very well and enjoys the food and environment and when we visit he appears happy and content. We would recommend this Care Home.

I visit 2 or 3 times a week and always receive a warm welcome and refreshments. My sister is well cared for. The staff get on well together and are very caring towards all the residents. There is always someone to talk to about my sister if I have any worries and I am kept well informed about her.
25 February 2025
I cannot thank all the staff, for all the care they do for my mum, she is treated the respect and care. I would always say that she is so very well looked after and she loves it here also. There is nothing they won't do to support my mum and even myself so only can thank them for this.

My mother has been a resident at Oak Lodge for around 18 months now, after a year at a large corporate home who decided they couldn't cope with her needs. We liked that home but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise as that home ended up being investigated and now having her at Oak Lodge, we
realise how comparatively poor it was.
Oak Lodge has been brilliant for Mum. The staff are amazing and her face lights up when she sees some of them (she has severe Alzheimer's). She is clearly far happier here than at her previous home and it's obvious she's more safe and secure, not least because of the high staffing levels.
As others have said, it's very like a nice hotel, with spacious rooms and everything is very clean. I genuinely can't praise the staff enough, and it's clear they seem to be happy working there, again something not always apparent at the previous home.
I'd thoroughly recommend it to anyone in the unenviable position of needing to place a relative in care.

The nursing home is very clean. My wife is very happy there. The staff are very good. The trouble is when I take a cream slice she eats the lot, never saves me one so I get a doughnut.
