I have always found the staff very friendly and always helpful and respectful of my ageing mother. Although on occasions my mother's room has needed cleaning, it has been given attention to a satisfactory standard. It would be good if the standard of food be improved by having the meals served fresh
and well heated. Often the food has been cold and not very appetising.

My husband has been a lot more content since moving to Oak View.
He has Alzheimer's and Dementia and had to leave his last care home due to issues associated with his illness.
The staff at Oak View are really good and my husband is so much happier.
I visit at different times, but no matter when I
visit, I can tell that he is being cared for always.

My father was in Oak View from January to August after his dementia (Alzheimer's & vascular) advanced to the point we could no longer adequately care for him at home. We couldn't have wished for a better setting for him to spend his final months. From the first day the staff at Oak View made sure he
felt he was 'home'. We were encouraged to come and visit whenever we wished. This was 'home' and so they don't have visiting hours as such.
The staff quickly became family to my dad and subsequently to us. He was safe at Oak View, he was cared for professionally but always in a loving manner. As the dementia changed he went through stages of aggression (at times very severe), however the staff were always positive and flexible in their approach and the level of care never waived. They responded quickly, professionally and ensured his medication was amended accordingly going above and beyond to make sure this was right. Above all Dad was not only cared for here, he was loved.

Really helpful in making the decision process for deciding to put Mum in a home much easier with the support from the home and the understanding care given to us as the family.


Would recommend the home in Hayling Island.

I feel that I have to update my review since the upgrade to Oak View Residential Care home. Mum has now moved into a downstairs refurbished room which is just perfect for her. The cost is a little more but it is worth it. The new access to the patio and garden makes for a lovely view and somewhere
peaceful and pretty to sit and have a coffee together.
Sometimes the atmosphere is quiet and restful and at other times lively, with singing and even playing ball in the lounge!
The staff have been brilliant during the building work, which must have been very disruptive, but they did all they could to minimise the impact on everyone.
It feels that we can now settle down for a lovely summer in the new environment.
Thank you

My husband was taken into Oak View after a prolonged stay in hospital. When he arrived he was very distressed and unhappy suffering from dementia. The staff at Oak View have been wonderful, showing him care and support. I cannot praise them highly enough and never leave worrying about whether he is
being cared for. They have made a difficult time bearable for all of our family.

Our Father became a resident of Oak View Residential Care Home in December 2016. The staff have been wonderful and supported the whole family during a difficult and emotional time. Dad has settled well and is benefiting from the specialised dementia care he now needs, which is delivered with compassion,
respect and expertise. As nurses ourselves, we are particularly impressed with the individual care given to each resident. The staff have made every effort to get to know Dad, his likes and dislikes, and we were encouraged to bring in personal belongings to make his room his own. The manager told us at the outset that Oak View is also our home while Dad is there and that is exactly how it feels.

Having to admit my Sister to a home was something I have dreaded since her diagnosis of Dementia but, thanks to the lovely Managerl and her wonderful team, it turned out to be a very positive experience indeed. At Oak View, rather than make the residents fit a regime (like one establishment I have
experienced), they create a person-centred, caring environment. Since the day my Sister walked into Oak View, I not only saw improvements in her well-being and contentment but I have been able to relax and get on with my own life knowing that she is in competent, friendly and trustworthy hands. Thank you Oak View.

My wife's been a resident of the care home since November 2011, both she and myself have been very happy with the standard of care received. The staff are friendly, efficient and the home is always clean and tidy. I have never had the feeling that my wife is uncomfortable and she always seems to enjoy
the food.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.663)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.663) out of 10 for Oak View Residential Care Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.7 out of 5 from 14 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 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:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.663 for Oak View Residential Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (130 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) + (5 Poors x 2) + (3 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 163 Ratings = 4.663

  • b) 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 Oak View Residential Care Home is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 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

    • ii) 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 51 registered maximum number of service users is 10.2, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.
