About Oaklands Nursing Home

Oaklands Nursing Home in York provides nursing care for older people and younger adults, with qualified nurses on duty throughout the day and night. Health needs are therefore met on site by people who know the resident well, rather than through repeated journeys elsewhere. Supporting residents living with dementia is a large part of what we do. We try to do it properly, which means learning who somebody was and still is, keeping to the rhythms that make sense to them, using the surroundings to reduce confusion, and treating distress as communication rather than as behaviour to be managed. Families often say the hardest part is feeling they have handed over somebody they love, so we work at keeping them closely involved. The practical nursing work is a matter of attention to detail: medication, skin care, mobility, nutrition and comfort. Meals matter here, and so does time outdoors. Respite stays are available for shorter periods. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is Good. You are welcome to visit at an ordinary time, see how the day runs and ask our nurses whatever you would like to know.
