Oaktree Manor

Provides Learning Disability services (men and women)

Oaktree Manor has grown from strength to strength and now retains the respect in the market for men and women with learning disability. Offering specific programmes for patients with Learning Disability/Personality Disorder, Forensic Histories, Autistic Spectrum Conditions.

Oaktree Manor’s treatment programmes are based on the philosophy that learning is a life long experience and a commitment to offer every individual the chance to reach their own goals and ambitions by embracing the Recovery star approach.

As well as ward based programmes there is a vibrant social skills centre on site (The Oaktree Centre). We are delighted that the Oaktree Centre has attained validation as an Award Scheme Development and Accreditation Network (ASDAN) centre.

The ASDAN award highlights Oaktree’s structured training format that delivers learning at the students pace through activities and the process of doing.  The modular programme embraces a recovery pathway that moves the participant towards independence and supported or voluntary employment. Their achievement is validated by a Bronze, Silver and Gold award system which is equivalent of GCSE and NVQ rates acceptable for college entry level. 

All wards are small (8 beds), gender specific and purpose built, Each one uniquely specialises in a specific patient cohort (such as ASC).  The aim is to provide a homely, yet therapeutic environment where patients can learn the skills they require to move through their care pathway to a sustainable discharge. A full multidisciplinary team works to the wards.
