About Oakleigh Lodge
We at Oakleigh Lodge are proud to offer warm, person centred residential care in the heart of Nottingham, welcoming older adults and younger adults alike into a home where dignity, comfort and companionship come first. As a residential care home rooted in the local Nottinghamshire community, we provide a genuine alternative to clinical settings, focusing instead on everyday wellbeing and meaningful connection. Our home is set within the NG postcode area of Nottingham, placing us conveniently close to local amenities, green spaces and the wider East Midlands community. This setting allows residents to remain connected to familiar surroundings, whilst families and friends can visit easily. Inside, we aim to create an atmosphere that feels reassuringly domestic rather than institutional, with shared spaces designed to encourage conversation, quiet reflection and the simple pleasures of daily life. The breadth of care we provide reflects the diverse needs of the people who choose to live with us. Alongside traditional older person care and residential support, we are experienced in supporting adults living with learning disabilities and autism, those with physical disabilities, and individuals with visual or hearing impairments. We also welcome younger adults whose circumstances mean that residential care is the right path for them. In practice, this means our team takes the time to understand each resident as an individual, building personalised care plans that respect routines, preferences, communication styles and personal goals. For families, it offers the reassurance that a loved one will be supported holistically, with thoughtful attention paid to both health needs and the things that bring joy to daily life. Our commitment to quality is reflected in our most recent Care Quality Commission inspection on 6 April 2025, where Oakleigh Lodge was rated Good overall. We were also rated Good across each of the five key domains assessed by the CQC, including Safe, Effective, Caring, Responsive and Well led. For families, a consistent Good rating across every area offers meaningful assurance that the care delivered here is safe, that outcomes for residents are positive, that staff are genuinely compassionate, that support adapts to changing needs, and that the home is guided by capable leadership. Choosing a care home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the weight of that decision. If you are exploring residential care options in Nottingham for yourself or someone you love, we warmly invite you to learn more about Oakleigh Lodge.
