Don and Carolyn Walker established Oak House in 1989. Their aim was to create a home from home atmosphere offering the highest levels of care whilst maintaining someone's independence, within their own limitations. Today the home remains operated by the Walker family with the same high standards and ethos.

Respect for the privacy and dignity of our residents is at the heart of everything we do here and is something all our staff fully subscribes to. Many of the team have worked with us for a number of years and this sense of continuity and familiarity is something very special. We are proud not to use agency staff, which provides consistency in the care we provide and reassurance to the people who live with us.
