Review from K C (Relative of Resident) published on 31 May 2022
Submitted via Website • Report

Overall Experience

My relative was very depressed during lockdown and his mild dementia became much more severe. He was unhappy in the first home we tried and two homes refused to have him because he wandered. I am full of praise for the staff at Oldfield Bank they are not phased by anything. They are kind and the atmosphere

is very relaxed and happy. They communicate with us well and they know just how to keep him happy and occupied which has not been easy. He enjoys the days out which are organised and is happier than he has been for the past few years.

Overall Experience

I have found all the staff and management at Oldfield Bank to be friendly, caring and helpful and appreciate them for keeping me informed of any matter affecting my father's care as they arise. Being an older property, it is full of character and makes for a relaxing environment from what I have seen

and my father tells me he likes his room. Compared to the previous care home, Oldfield Bank has proved to be excellent, which I fully appreciate and would recommend as a good home for an elderly relative needing care.

Reply from Lisa Pearson, Manager at Oldfield Bank

Thank you for your kind review. It is a pleasure to look after dad and great to see him coming out of his shell since admission. I will pass on your kind words to our wonderful staff.

Overall Experience

Oldfield Bank care home serves all my husband's needs. Carers are professional and are dedicated to the wellbeing of all the residents. All carers are helpful and friendly and welcome me whenever I visit. My husband is happy being here and always in good spirits. I have missed my husband so much because

of lockdown but I phoned regularly and the carers were always happy to discuss my husband's care and wellbeing. I always know he is in good hands.

Reply from Andy Foote, Manager at Oldfield Bank

Thank you for your kind review. It is our pleasure to care for your lovely husband, his eyes light up when he sees you and it is wonderful to witness the love you share. We look forward to welcoming you back very soon.

Review from Joan H (Friend of Resident) published on 4 April 2018

Overall Experience

Over the years, I have visited a good number of care and nursing homes to see friends from church or club that I've been a member of. When my friend (who with her late husband I've known for fifty years) had to be admitted to a care home, after being in and out of hospital over 3 1/2 years, I was given

a list of homes in the area that had a vacancy, to inspect which I did. When I visited Oldfield Bank, to me it had a good homely feel, with friendly care, the carers spending time the residents as required. There is a good varied menu, singers, music and other visitors to entertain and the summer residents can sit in the garden.

Overall Experience

The home was recommended by a friend whose granny had been a resident. Not a "shining new" purpose built corporate style home, but that is a big plus for me. Much more personal and you feel people really do live there as their home not just numbers in a big business.
Great committed delightful staff

who seem genuinely to love their jobs of looking after the elderly. Really compassionate and caring at the end.
Book me a place in 30 years time!

Overall Experience

Mum has been a resident since October 2015. The staff are extremely caring, nothing is too much trouble. Family and friends who visit comment on the warm and friendly atmosphere and on the welcome they receive. Mum is very well cared for and happy and contented. I would not hesitate to recommend this

home.

Review from Ruth P (Niece of Resident) published on 22 January 2018

Overall Experience

We believe our auntie was well cared for and treated with dignity. Prior to her becoming increasingly confused and clearly suffering from dementia, she always spoke well of the home and the carers and was comfortable. She also always mentioned that the food and company were enjoyable.

In her final

years and months, the quality of care remained high and we are grateful to all concerned.

Reply from Amer Hussain, Director at Oldfield Bank

Thanks for the kind comments and we endeavour to improve continuously - your comments and ratings will help ensure we focus on the right areas.

Overall Experience

My husband spent nearly 3 years at Oldfield Bank. He was well looked after and despite being difficult at times, the staff showed immense patience with him. In his final week the love, care and dignity given to him was over and above the call of duty. I remain extremely grateful that he had a 'good'

death.

Review from Steve M (Son of Resident) published on 18 September 2017

Overall Experience

An excellent care home. My problem is my mother does not have dementia and therefore struggles living in the environment. It would be great to have a separate social area but I feel not possible, too few staff in my opinion and when stretched has an emotional effect on my mother. All the carers give

a superb service. Food quality and variety could be improved but again difficult with the types of residents in care. My conclusion is 5-star care but always ways to improve.

Overall Experience

My aunt arrived at Oldfield Bank three years ago in a frail condition, not being able to look after herself at home. Within months she had put weight on and became stronger in herself due to the care and attention she received every day.

She has told me she is very happy being there and the staff

are very friendly and helpful. It was a good decision for her to move there.
