A lovely afternoon spent with the people who make everything possible — our amazing Care Professionals. Moments like these remind us that we’re more than a team; we’re a supportive community built on kindness, respect, and genuine care for one another.

As the year comes to a close, we wish all our Care Professionals, colleagues, clients, and their families a truly wonderful Christmas 🎄 and all the very best for a happy, healthy, and successful New Year ✨💚.

We are so grateful for everything you do — not just at Christmas, but every day of the year.

When we asked our clients and their families, 64% said the process of phoning for an appointment caused them stress.

The GoodOaks Virtual GP removes that barrier by offering easy online booking and quick access to trusted clinicians, whenever reassurance is needed. 🌳

And with appointments available 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, clients can choose a time that suits them, reducing stress and giving greater control over their care.

Because healthcare should support your wellbeing, not add to the worry. 💚

Yellow Heat-Health Warning – Stay Cool, Stay Safe ☀️

A Yellow Health Weather Warning has been issued due to rising temperatures, and at GoodOaks, we’re taking extra steps to protect our clients during the heatwave.

High temperatures can be especially dangerous for older adults and those with existing health conditions. That’s why our care teams are:
💧Encouraging regular hydration
☀️Helping keep homes cool and comfortable
🥗Providing light, nutritious meals
📞Checking in more frequently to monitor wellbeing

We’re here to ensure our clients remain safe, supported, and well-cared-for in the heat. If you’re concerned about a loved one during this time, don’t hesitate to get in touch - we’re here to help.

Let’s beat the heat together. 💛

Taking a breather: the importance of Respite Care

Caring for a loved one can be a fulfilling but demanding role, and it’s important to remember your own wellbeing too. Respite care allows you to take a break, recharge, and focus on yourself while ensuring your loved one continues to receive the care they need.

At GoodOaks, we offer various respite care options, from companionship visits to live-in care, ensuring you can take time off without worry.
