About Tall Oaks Care Home

Tall Oaks is a 52-bed nursing care home located on Charles Street in Biddulph, a town in Staffordshire. The home is operated by Careconcepts (North Staffordshire) Ltd and provides care for older people, those with dementia, physical disabilities, and younger adults requiring nursing support.

The home was last inspected by the Care Quality Commission in February 2024 and currently has a rating of Requires Improvement. This means the service did not meet all standards of quality and safety at that inspection, and improvements are needed in specific areas.

As a nursing care home, the facility provides medical care alongside personal support. Its range of specialisms indicates it aims to support residents with complex care needs across different age groups, though older people and dementia care appear to be core services.
