Compassionate Care in a Safe and Comfortable Environment
A Message from our CEO
Dr Vivek Patil
Welcome to Graceful Oaks, where our mission is to provide a nurturing and supportive environment for our residents, ensuring they live their lives with dignity, comfort, and joy. As the CEO, I am honoured to lead a dedicated team of professionals who are passionate about delivering the highest quality of care.
Having worked in NHS for the last 20 years both clinically and as a Medical Director, I understand that transitioning to a care home can be a significant change for both residents and their families. My extensive experience of working in healthcare settings and having managed the quality aspect of care in large Trusts places me in a unique position to understand the challenges faced by families and to develop effective solutions. I have a track record of successful service delivery and portfolio management, setting and enhancing clinical standards, leading on clinical governance, risk mitigation, and offering advice and guidance to not just Trusts but also to regional healthcare boards.
At Graceful Oaks, we understand that choosing a residential care home is a significant decision. We strive to make that choice easier by offering a warm, welcoming, and safe environment where residents can thrive. Our state-of-the-art facilities are designed to meet the diverse needs of our residents, from those requiring minimal assistance to those needing more comprehensive care.
I believe that a care home should feel like a true home, where residents are part of a caring community. My focus is on creating a vibrant and inclusive atmosphere where everyone can enjoy meaningful relationships, stimulating activities, and a sense of purpose.
At Graceful Oaks, we are not just providing care; we are enhancing lives. We are proud of the positive impact we have on our residents and their families, and we invite you to visit us to experience the Graceful Oaks difference.
Thank you for considering Graceful Oaks for your loved one’s care. I look forward to welcoming you into our community.
