  • Oak Hall Care Home, Haslemere
Oak Hall in Haslemere, Surrey, opened its doors to new residents in November 2018, following an extensive refurbishment. It offers luxurious surroundings for 55 residents, all of whom enjoy their own en-suite rooms. Some of the rooms can accommodate couples.

In keeping with other homes within the group, Oak Hall will deliver exceptional levels of care in convivial surroundings. Restaurant-style dining is a key feature, alongside a dedicated Health and wellness team who will be running a wide range of well being activities to keep residents active in mind body and soul.

Oak Hall will offer a range of care options: residential, convalescent, respite and specialist palliative care are all available, each with the aim of providing dignity and respect through programmes tailored to the needs of the individual.

Oak Hall lives up to its name with a large oak-panelled entrance hall; oak staircase and balustrading with many further oak features throughout the building. The original interiors of the principal rooms remain little altered: marquetry inlay to some floors, plastered ceilings, stone and marble fireplaces, marble floors, heraldic stained glass and tiled bathrooms.

Long-term nursing care - Respite Care - Convalescence following an operation - Specialist palliative care.

I would sincerely like to thank all the staff at Oak Hall Care Home for the care my mother received during her stay there. Many individuals went above and beyond the scope of their normal duties in order to meet Mum's needs and their caring and friendly approach is much appreciated. Nothing was too
much trouble and I know she cherishes the friendships she has made during her stay.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

It was a pleasure looking after Mum during the time she was with us. All the staff wish her well in her new home and we all hope she settles in and enjoys her new surroundings.

My mother was placed at Oak Hall from Royal Surrey Hospital.
The staff were fantastic, kind thoughtful and discrete.
We knew her stay would not be a long one but they gave us space and privacy, allowing us to remain with her overnight, this was of great comfort to the family and mother.
Really cannot
recommend highly enough.
Not all stars were applicable to our case so have marked those as a 3, this is no disrepect to the care home but simply not relevant to our particular case.

It was a great pleasure to look after your mum and support you all as a family. It was not for very long but it was an honour to be able to help in her final days.

My mother was placed at Oak Hall in Haslemere after being discharged from the hospital by the social services team as part of the A2D NHS scheme. Oak Hall is a converted girl's school with long corridors and is set over 3 floors. We had no choice in the placement as it was being funded by the NHS. Unfortunately,
this home is not a specialist centre for those with dementia and as my mother has this condition, it makes it difficult to navigate this vast space as it is confusing, so for that reason alone I would not recommend it. The food though presentable is served by staff that are not aware of what they are serving and on one occasion my mother who is a vegetarian was served chicken. On leaving the home, 'Oak Hall' failed to give me her medication and I had to make another trip to collect part of the prescription as apparently, they had run out of two of the drugs. Now neither did they tell me of this nor did they offer to correct the mistake requesting that I correct their mistake. Poor!

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Oak Hall is a large country house, beautifully refurbished and extended to provide a purpose built care home for its residents, some of whom live with dementia. Your mother informed us during her stay that she liked a variety of foods, including fish and white meat. Our menu for the day your mother chose the chicken dish also offered a vegetarian and fish option. Your mother heard all the options and chose the chicken dish. With regards to medications, I confirm that all medications on your mother’s current prescription were given to you on the day your mother left. All medication on your mother’s next prescription was due to be delivered to Oak Hall the following day, this was immediately notified to you and duly collected. It can be difficult for families when hospital placements are made without being given the choice, however, we very much enjoyed meeting and caring for your mother and hope she remains as happy in her new home as she was when she was living with us.

The staff at Oak Hall Care Home are always friendly, caring and diligent. The ladies on reception and in the office, have been there from the beginning and give a lovely personal touch. It feels like a real home and my mum is very happy there. If I have any issues, I know I can always talk to the staff.
The bistro is very sociable, so even when my mum isn’t able to come out, we can sit and have lunch there, and she can invite friends for lunch. The bistro attracts the younger, more able residents of the apartments, giving a younger energy to the home. Oak Hall is in a beautiful setting and residents can sit outside if the weather is kind.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Thank you for your review and what you have said about reception and office staff who often get forgotten. I am glad that your Mum is happy in the home and that she enjoys eating in the bistro.

I have recently started visiting a resident at Oak Hall and have found the staff very helpful and obliging. I do my dear friend's hair when I go to Oak Hall Care Home and require a wheelchair and my friend to be hoisted but it was no trouble for the staff to do this for my visit.
My friend was very
reluctant to go into a care home but has seemed to have settled and really enjoys the food at Oak Hall.
Thank you to the staff.

My grandmother sadly passed away at Oak Hall Care Home after just 12 days of arriving from a long stay in hospital following a stroke. Due to Covid restrictions/an isolation period, we, unfortunately, weren't able to see her until her final day. The staff my family and I encountered on that sad day
were absolutely wonderful and we couldn't have asked for lovelier people to look after her (and us!). It's such a shame we didn't get to know everyone a bit better but our overall impression of Oak Hall is a positive one.

Mum was discharged to Oak Hall Care Home following three long months in hospital. Mum received so much respect, empathy and good personal care from all the different member's of staff from all departments during her 9-weeks at Oak Hall. My mum was restricted by her debilitating health issues, so was
confined mostly to her bed/room, but the staff always made her days a bit brighter and loved to listen to her chat. She received good palliative care, and we were so pleased we were able to visit her within the current restrictions. Sadly she died, but she received the best care we could have wished for and with dignity and love till the end.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Mum was lovely to look after, always liked to chat with anyone who could spend time with her and had such varied conversations. It was lovely that family members were able to spend time with her at the end and share precious moments.

My grandmother visited Oak Hall for a month for emergency respite after an unexpected operation. The whole team made Grandma so welcome and comfortable. We were extremely impressed by all the staff, and nothing was too much of a problem for them to resolve. The care home itself is a beautiful, highly
maintained building in the most beautiful grounds. I cannot recommend Oak Hall enough.

Reply from Jane McAuley, General Manager at Oak Hall Care Home

Thank you, Emma, for such lovely comments. You Grandmother was a welcome addition to our family and is welcome back at any time. She fitted in very well and made friends with some of our long-stay residents.


We hope she is doing well at home, but if she ever needs a holiday, please, let us know.
Thank you again.

My parents moved into Oak Hall in September 2020 following a significant decline in their health. My mother died shortly afterwards. Her end-of-life care was exemplary. My siblings and I were allowed to visit her in the week leading up to her death. She was nursed in a calm, sunlit room with my father
with her all the time. Both my father and brother were with her when she died. We could not have asked for a better end to her life. My father remained at Oak Hall until he died suddenly following a short illness in January. The carers and nursing staff have been consistently incredibly caring under very difficult circumstances. They did all they could to facilitate family visits and Skype or Facetime calls. The rooms are really homely and the view onto the garden and beyond made it a really lovely place for our parents to be. Oak Hall has a real atmosphere of being very well run. My brother, sisters and I would very highly recommend Oak Hall.

Despite all the Covid protocols and restrictions they are having to work with, the staff at Oak Hall have maintained the friendly and welcoming atmosphere that immediately puts you at ease. There is an easy rapport with the staff you see on a regular basis and smiles and greetings from those you don't.
As he is not able to be with us, it is a great comfort to his family to know that dad is being cared for by a highly professional and passionate family at Oak Hall.

Thank you, Carol. I am extremely pleased that the staff are friendly and welcoming. We see Oak Hall as a family and I am glad that is what you feel when you visit. As restrictions ease we will be allowing more people in. We currently allow 2 visitors at a time in our POD for an hour at a time.

My mother has been at Oak Hall for a little over 2 years since it first opened. In that time, my mother has been extremely well cared for. The team at Oak Hall are loving, caring and totally committed to the care they give. In what has been such a difficult year for both residents and carers, they have
at all times been professional but more importantly have shown love and understanding for the times we have found ourselves in. They should all feel very proud.

My Mum was the second resident to move into Oak Hall in November 2018. The permanent staff are the key feature of its success, many of whom have been there from the beginning. They genuinely care for the residents and understand their differing needs. They have been outstanding during the pandemic,
and whilst we haven't been able to visit, they have arranged calls over skype and Facetime in order to keep in touch. It has been challenging for all but the regular staff have gone above and beyond what has been expected of them. Thank you to you all.

Oak Hall is a very special place and I recommend it highly. The staff are lovely and very caring to my mother who sadly suffers from Dementia and Parkinsons, but they do everything to try to keep her engaged and comfortable. Her room is lovely and is kept very clean and tidy as are all areas of the
home. She eats well and looks in the most perfect health, the staff take care to dress her well and even paint her nails! My mother has been in the home since October 2019 and prior to lockdown, we all enjoyed our visits to see her, since March and COVID-19 the staff have tried their best to keep us engaged and we were able to visit when her health suffered. Interaction with her remotely is difficult because of her dementia, but the staff do try with Skype calls. Communication with Oak Hall is good with a regular newsletter and access to both care and medical staff.

My mother has been cared for at Oak Hall since October 2019. I have always been impressed by the kindness and caring of staff and the approachability of managers. This last month has been particularly worrying as my mother has had Covid and as an only child, I have had to entrust all care to the staff
without being able to visit my very frail mother. I cannot speak too highly of the support I have received and my mother has recovered due to the care she has received. During all the challenges of lockdown in 2020 where it was possible to visit our loved ones, we were enabled to do so and were being regularly Covid tested from very early on. We have always been welcomed as family and were able to visit frequently and often until Lockdown prevented it. I look forward to being able to visit again as soon as it is possible. Staff have become part of our lives and that support has been so much appreciated. It is a difficult step placing loved ones into care but Oak Hall has made it much easier. Thank you.

Current Review Score: 9.7 (9.686)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.7 (9.686) out of 10 for Oak Hall 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 48 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 47 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 4.686 for Oak Hall Care Home is calculated as follows: ( (428 Excellents x 5) + (106 Goods x 4) + (21 Satisfactorys x 3) + (3 Poors x 2) + (5 Very Poors x 1) ) ÷ 563 Ratings = 4.686

  • 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 Hall Care Home is based on 47 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 55 registered maximum number of service users is 11, which has been reached with 47 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.
