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. ?
Nottingham City Council runs The Oaks Residential Home, a residential care home in Nottingham with room for 42 residents. Its CQC registration covers older people, people with dementia and younger adults. The typical home in Nottingham has 17 beds, so this one is bigger than average.
In Nottingham, 78% of rated care homes are Good or Outstanding (England 82%). Food hygiene inspectors scored the kitchen 5 out of 5 in May 2026. 98% of homes in Nottingham also score 5. It is one of 3 homes run by Nottingham City Council. 3 of those with a rating are Good or Outstanding. Of the 6 closest rated homes, none is rated above it.
Its CQC rating, from September 2019, is Good across the board: overall and for every key question. That matches its previous rating, from February 2017. The rating is more than 5 years old. In Nottingham, 33% of ratings are that old (see how rating age varies by council).
