We understand that choosing the BEST nursing home is a big decision...
We kindly ask you to refrain from visiting the home if you (or anyone you've been in contact with) are or have been ill recently
We hold regular Residents’ meetings & we encourage relatives to attend these meetings. They offer an ideal opportunity for residents & family members alike to express any concerns or suggest any improvements that could be made.
Of course if there are urgent matters or personal issues to be addressed, in relation to a resident's wellbeing, we will make direct contact with the relevant person, at the most appropriate time, depending on the issue at hand.
Communication - FAQs
In the event of a resident, relative or other person being concerned or unsatisfied with the level of care provided, we have a complaints procedure in place to deal with this matter.
The staff and management of Oak View Nursing Home aim to deal with any issue/concern or complaint efficiently, promptly and with a non-biased approach.
All issues/concerns or complaints will be investigated fully and a full report will be given to the resident, relative or other concerned person.
Our staff are bound by confidentiality clauses.

Complaints Procedure please call Geraldine on 049 952 2630 or email: geraldine@oakviewnh.ie
