Oakdene Care Providers

This residential care home supports four younger adults with mental health problems, providing accommodation and personal care in a safe, staffed environment. Residents reported feeling safe with the staff who support them, and the home has robust recruitment procedures and infection control measures in place. Staff receive training to recognise and report abuse.

However, inspectors identified areas for improvement in medicines management, particularly around recording practices. While the home had considered risks relating to residents' health and care needs, potential hazards from free-standing wardrobes had not been assessed. The deputy manager committed to addressing these shortfalls promptly.
