The Oaklodge Home can be characterised as seeking wholeness, rather than fragmentation; creating its own future, rather than simply reacting to the environment and providing services in a way that anticipates and meets the highest expectations of those we serve. The Director of Nursing, doctors and staff at Oaklodge Nursing Home are dedicated to giving care which encompasses the mind, body and spirit and emphasises prevention and wellness with a goal of providing leadership to improve the health of the community we serve.

The architectural design of the Nursing Home makes it a comfortable place to live and work, with resident/family lounges on each unit. Nurses’ work stations are located close to the patient bedside and central work areas are barrier free. Visiting hours are unrestricted for families; colors, lighting, carpeting, fabrics, furniture and paintings all have been selected to create a warm, nurturing and healing environment. The design strives to conceal clutter and provide a bright, naturally lighted, homely environment, with enhanced privacy and an array of amenities for residents as well as their family members and visitors. We believe every employee is an equal player in creating a wonderful health care experience for our residents.
Our goal at Oaklodge is to continually create an environment and home experience second to none. This means we must all, regardless of position or rank, take responsibility for ensuring that residents (and visitors) who come here have the most positive experience possible. We must excel in the performance of those things that will serve to distinguish Oaklodge over the years: innovative, high quality services; unique, living environment; Oaklodge philosophy of care; exceptional customer service; and patient and employee satisfaction.
