About Oatlands Care
Oatlands Care is a care home in Bromley. We provide residential care, we support people living with dementia, and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We would rather you had that from us before anything else. The inspection identified things that were not good enough for the people living here, we have accepted those findings and we are working through them. Anyone considering the home should ask precisely what was found and precisely what has changed, and should press us if the answer sounds general rather than specific. What we are working towards is a home where the day belongs to the people living in it. Residents choosing when to get up and where to spend their time, rooms that belong to the people in them, and visitors who come when it suits them. For people living with dementia, familiarity does most of the work. The same faces, a recognisable shape to the day, and staff who take the trouble to learn a person's history so that they understand what lies behind distress rather than simply responding to it. Please come and look round before you decide anything. Read the inspection report in full, talk to people living here and form your own view.
