About Oakleigh Park Care Home
Oakleigh Park is a residential care home in Barnet. Those living here include older people, many living with dementia, people managing mental health conditions and people with physical disabilities. We also offer respite stays for families needing a planned break. Most of what makes a care home good happens quietly and every day. Food people actually want to eat. Being helped to the bathroom without waiting. Laundry that comes back. Knowing the name of whoever is on this evening. Somebody noticing that you have been quieter than usual for a few days. We put our effort there rather than into anything that reads well at a distance. North London is varied in language, faith and food, and we treat that as something to build the household around rather than to accommodate at the edges. With residents living with dementia we guard the routine carefully and learn the past thoroughly, because familiarity and recognition are doing real work. We review each person's care with them regularly rather than annually out of habit, and we change the plan when it has stopped fitting. The Care Quality Commission rates us good overall. Relatives are welcome unannounced.
