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. ?
The Oaks Care Home is a 31-bed residential care home in Wigan. The home is its own registered provider. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia, younger adults, people with a physical disability, people with a sensory impairment and people who use drugs or alcohol.
The Rowans Care Home, 1.6 km away, is the closest home rated Outstanding. Across Wigan, 91% of rated homes are Good or Outstanding, against 82% for England. Its kitchen was rated 5 for food hygiene in August 2026. 64% of homes in Wigan also score 5.
