Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 32 good, 1 below good. Use “See the breakdown” on each key question for its standards. ?
CQC hasn't inspected this home for more than 5 years. It re-inspects based on risk, so an old rating doesn't count against a home on this site, but it may not reflect the home today. ?
Run by Carewise Homes Limited, Oak Tree Lodge is a residential care home in Southampton, Hampshire with 19 registered beds. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia and people with mental health needs.
In May 2025, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. That matches its previous rating, from April 2021. Ratings in Hampshire are typically about 4 years old, which makes this one newer than most. Of the 33 standards CQC scored, 1 fell below good. The lowest was “consent to care and treatment” (some shortfalls).
None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating. Across Hampshire, 85% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. The kitchen has a food hygiene rating of 5 (very good), from November 2025. That is true of 84% of homes in Hampshire.
