The following is CQC's published account of its assessment, published 11 May 2026. References to “we” mean CQC. It describes findings at that time.

Date of Assessment; 31 March 2026 to 14 April 2026. Oxford Manor is a residential and nursing home providing personal care to up to 85 older people, many of whom were living with dementia. On the day of the inspection, 44 people were being supported by the service.

This inspection was to follow up on breaches of regulations relating to consent, good governance, safe care and treatment, staffing and person-centred care.

At this inspection we found the service was no longer in breach of these regulations.

We were greeted warmly by the registered manager and staff, who were keen to demonstrate the improvements they had made to the service.

Care plans were clearly written, provided guidance and good examples of how people were supported to take part in day-to-day activities. Staff knew how to identify and respond to changes in people’s needs. Systems to manage risks to people were in place and provided staff with guidance on how to manage risks. The service had initiatives in place to promote and support people with their health and wellbeing and routinely monitored people’s care and treatment. Documentation around capacity was completed appropriately.

Staff understood their responsibility to report concerns about safety. There were enough safely recruited and trained staff to carry out safe care. The environment met people’s needs and staff managed the risk of infection. The home was clean and free from malodours.

Personalised care was planned through discussions with people and their relatives. The service worked effectively with external agencies and professionals to ensure people’s needs were met in a planned and timely manner.

Leaders were passionate about delivering high quality care. Regular meetings were held with staff, including supervision, handovers, and daily briefings. Staff consistently told us how they felt supported in their roles.

We observed compassionate and kind care throughout our visit. Staff told us they enjoyed working at Oxford Manor and understood the importance of providing care in a person-centred way. The service had built links with community services and healthcare services such as GP’s, physiotherapists, dentists, podiatrist, and opticians.
