About Us
Oakbank Care Home, Harpurhey
Welcome to Oakbank Care Home, a warm and welcoming home in Harpurhey, Manchester, providing compassionate residential care, general nursing care and residential dementia care in a comfortable and supportive environment.
With 51 bedrooms, Oakbank offers residents a friendly place to call home, where they can feel safe, valued and respected. Our dedicated team takes the time to get to know every resident as an individual, understanding their preferences, routines, interests and life experiences.
We believe that moving into a care home should not mean giving up the things that make life meaningful. Instead, it can be the beginning of a new chapter, with opportunities to enjoy companionship, maintain independence, continue favourite routines and discover new interests.
Residential, Nursing and Dementia Care
At Oakbank, our person-centred approach puts each resident's dignity, wellbeing and independence at the heart of everything we do.
We provide general residential care for people who need support with everyday living, alongside general nursing care for those who require additional professional support. We also offer residential dementia care, providing a reassuring and supportive environment for people living with dementia.
Our experienced team works closely with residents, their families and healthcare professionals to ensure that support is thoughtfully planned around each person's individual needs and wishes.
For residents living with dementia, we understand how important familiarity, reassurance, routine and meaningful engagement can be. We focus on getting to know the person, not simply their care needs, helping to maintain their identity, abilities and quality of life.
A Comfortable Place to Call Home
We want Oakbank to feel like more than somewhere to receive support — we want it to feel like home.
Residents are encouraged to bring photographs, favourite ornaments, treasured possessions and other familiar belongings with them. These personal touches can help create a comfortable space that feels familiar and reflects the individual's personality and memories.
Our communal areas provide welcoming places to relax, enjoy a cup of tea, chat with friends, spend time with family and visitors, or simply enjoy some peaceful time.
Wherever possible, residents are encouraged to make choices about their daily routines and remain involved in the things that matter to them.
Enjoying Everyday Life
Life at Oakbank is about much more than daily routines. We encourage residents to remain active, social and involved in the things they enjoy, while providing opportunities to try something new.
Our activities programme is designed to encourage mental stimulation, physical wellbeing, creativity and social connection. Activities may include arts and crafts, gardening, gentle exercise, quizzes, games, music and entertainment, film afternoons and pamper sessions.
We recognise that everyone is different. Some residents enjoy lively group activities, while others prefer quieter pastimes such as listening to favourite music, looking through photographs, having a conversation or spending time with loved ones.
Our team takes time to discover what each resident enjoys and what brings them pleasure, purpose and a sense of achievement.
Food, Friendship and Wellbeing
Good food is an important part of enjoying life at Oakbank. Our catering team provides a variety of nutritious and enjoyable meals, including traditional favourites and dishes that residents know and love.
We take individual dietary requirements, nutritional needs and personal preferences into account, helping residents enjoy meals that are both appealing and appropriate.
Mealtimes are also an opportunity to catch up with friends, share conversation and enjoy the company of others in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.
