care home with wonderful, attentive staff who treat residents with respect and individuality.
Marie R (Daughter of Resident)
The care they have received has been quite simply exemplary
Sarah G (Daughter of Resident)
The nurses and carers are all so caring, conscientious and fun
Jayne (Daughter of Resident)
All residents are assessed by the nursing team to establish we can support their physical and emotional needs, that we have a suitable room with the right peer group, whilst maintaining the correct staffing ratio. After this assessment we will then confirm the weekly care fees, which will be inclusive of all nursing and 'hotel' costs.
The home want visiting to be as relaxed as possible, however as a CQC regulated service, sometimes Health Department restrictions may be in place

Thank you for your review and for sharing your concerns, however in the future please report these straight away to any staff on duty, the Service Manager (or if you prefer to email, their contact details are on their profile picture by the main Household entrance), or to the General Manager whose office is directly opposite the reception signing in desk. The sooner we can hear about niggles, the sooner we can prevent them from turning into problems. Thank you, OG

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.799) out of 10 for Oakham Grange is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.
a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 18 Reviews in the last 24 months.
b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 18 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.
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 4.799 for Oakham Grange is calculated as follows: ( (172 Excellents x 5) + (34 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) + (2 Poors x 2) ) ÷ 209 Ratings = 4.799
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 Oakham Grange is based on 18 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 68 registered maximum number of service users is 13.6, which has been reached with 18 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.

Job Title: General Manager
Joined: 2021
Hello, my name is Jesamy, and I am the General Manager here at Oakham Grange. I am a Registered Mental Health Nurse, having qualified at Robert Gordon’s University in 2007. I began my career working in Royal Cornhill Hospital in Aberdeen, in a functional assessment ward for those over 65 years of age who were experiencing acute mental health issues. I then moved on to working in a dementia assessment ward, and following that a challenging behaviour ward for gentlemen over the age of 65. Upon my return from maternity leave, I worked in various settings and then moved back home to Rutland where I took up a position as a nurse in a care home. I gained the experience and knowledge required to become the Clinical Lead nurse, which I absolutely loved.
I am so proud to say that I work at Oakham Grange, having been born in Oakham (back when Rutland Memorial Hospital still had a maternity unit and Dr Brentnall was in charge) and bought up in Uppingham. I am passionate about ensuring that we provide the highest standard of care possible to the people of Rutland and beyond. I believe that people should be treated with the same love and care that I would like to see my own family treated with and I strive to make sure that this is the case for all our residents at Oakham Grange.
Job Title: Service Manager
Joined: 2020
At the age of 17, I started my Dip H E in adult nursing at Leeds University. I qualified in 1999 and started my first job in nursing in Ward 15 at Glenfield Hospital, which was a rehabilitation ward.
I worked here for 18 months while waiting for a community nursing post to come up as this is what I really wanted to do. I started as a community nurse in April 2001, and this is where I have spent the last 19 years of my career, all in different guises. I was a triage nurse for 18 months for the community and latterly from 2014 worked for a service called ICS. This service was rolled out to provide a multidisciplinary team approach to enable people at home, rather than being admitted to the hospital. I met my 2 colleagues Liz and Chrissy working here approximately 12 years ago and now a new adventure begins for the 3 of us as nurse practitioners working together to provide nursing care at Oakham Grange. This is very exciting!! To be able to work as a professional with friends whom you have the utmost trust and belief in is very special. My aim as a nurse practitioner at Oakham Grange is to provide autonomous, person-centred care for our residents.
Job Title: Service Manager
Joined: 2020
I studied BSC (Hons) Adult Nursing at East Anglia Polytechnique, I loved my student placements in the community working with the District Nurses and knew that this was what I wanted to do. Once qualified I took a job at Walsgrave Hospital in Coventry, I worked on an assessment unit for the elderly for a year before taking a job in a Community Nursing team in Leicestershire, that’s where I stayed for fourteen years before moving to the Intensive Community Support team in 2015. I’ve worked with both Cat and Liz for over twelve years and we have a great working relationship with a wealth of experience that we can bring to Oakham Grange.
