What people say about us
I am so happy that my wife has settled in so well at Great Oaks, mainly due to the superb care provided by all staff and management, as this came as a surprise to me my wife being admitted, not only for my wife but also helped put my mind at rest. So with all the help and advice from all, I give them a 100% with no reservation.
I feel that my mother received excellent care at Great Oaks and don't feel that she could've got any better care. All staff and carers were able to meet her needs perfectly and personally, I couldn't be more grateful, I can't thank everyone enough.
Everyone here all seem to enjoy what they do. There's always plenty to do - trips, singers, games and the girls are also super happy and friendly to chat with, and lovely to see them smiling with Mum knowing she is happy and in the best hands. Food always looks well presented, and the home always seems to be in a positive atmosphere. Thank you.
Very well-managed and organised home. Excellent accommodation. Very caring and kind staff, who truly care about their residents. There are organised activities for the residents to join in. The food is also very good.
Can now rest assured Mum is receiving 24-hour care from an extremely attentive care team. The activity team excel with either activities / animal therapy / entertainers (or even trips) every day to stimulate their minds and well-being. It is a very happy and positive environment. I look forward to visiting.
It is very reassuring for me to know my friend remains well cared for in a place I would be proud to be a part of the care team. I have worked in Dementia Care for 23 years in various roles. I am always welcomed warmly on every. Great Oaks feels like a very large and extended family, and I am always very grateful to all the staff who make this place a special home for my friend and all those that reside there.
All the staff and management are excellent. Everyone is very friendly, kind and caring. They do all they can to keep you happy. They listen to any concerns. The food is good. The rooms are gardens are very nice. The managers are friendly and approachable. I like it here.
I was very impressed by the very high standard of care given to the resident by the staff of all ages. The end-of-life care was so supportive, giving reassurance and sensitive care to the resident, meeting his needs on every occasion. The staff always greeted the visitors in a friendly way.

Hi, it's Carolyn, I've just seen your lovely photos with Mr.Kelloggs, and absolutely loved every one!! I can see that the residents adore him, and that's because he is adorable, I remember making a fuss of him myself when I used to visit Mum?? I hope that he will be around for a very long time?? God bless you all, with lots of love from Carolyn XX ❤️❤️

All we were missing from this was a few marshmallows to roast over the fire 🔥
We had a great time bringing back memories of our childhood trying to wrote your name with the sparklers. Such a fun activity to do and thank you to everyone who braced the cold to come and join us. ❄️🎆🎇

🎆 Remember remember the 5th of November 🎆
We couldn't start bonfire night of without making our own "Guy Fawkes" although fun to make he is just for decoration purposes. 👀 This guy is safe from the flames 🔥 at the moment.
See if you can spot him in the next few days when you are visiting the home, you never know what he might get up to. 👀😊

Hi, it's Carolyn, I've just seen your latest photos,and everyone looks like they're really enjoying themselves?? Thanks so much for sharing them with me, I always save them on my phone,as there are often residents and carers that I remember in some of the pictures!! I'd just like to ask before I go, Does Singer Steve still come along with his lovely doggie?? I did really enjoy all the singers I saw in the past when I visited, but Steve was by far my most favourite?? (There is something about his personality that I like!!)
