Percentages are CQC scores from its newer way of assessing homes. ?
CQC scored 33 standards: 32 good, 1 exceptional. 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. ?
Oaklawn is a 4-bed residential care home in Epsom, Surrey, run by Emas Limited. CQC registers it to look after older people and people with a learning disability or autism. That is smaller than most homes in Surrey, where the typical home has 30 beds.
In July 2026, CQC gave it Good overall, and Good for each of the five key questions too. It was also rated Good at the inspection before, in April 2019. Ratings in Surrey are typically about 4 years old, which makes this one newer than most. None of its 33 scored standards was below good, and 1 were exceptional.
Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 1 out of 5 in July 2026. 87% of homes in Surrey score the top mark of 5. Across Surrey, 81% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. It is one of 2 homes run by Emas Limited. 2 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. None of the 6 nearest rated homes has a higher rating.
