We were very lucky a room was available at Oakworth Manor, as my mother suddenly needed residential care. Fortunately, some friends had already investigated care homes in Keighley for their elderly mother, so we knew Oakworth Manor, to be a good home.
Well done to the manager and the staff who provide a splendid home from home for my mother and the other residents.

Oakworth Manor not only provide a warm, friendly caring environment but also a good deal of interesting activities to keep elderly resident's minds and bodies active. It does not have the slick appearance of some of the modern purpose built homes, but rather creates the atmosphere of a large family home, relaxed and welcoming, but still mindful of the need for careful attention to all the requirements of health and the safety of some of the most vulnerable people in society.

On the first visit to view Oakworth Manor, we were made very welcome by all staff and had a complete tour. We were shown my elderly aunt's potential room which was spacious, well equipped and with a bathroom. The care when feeding her is always patient and gentle and the staff all seem to go the extra mile to make her life comfortable. I would thoroughly recommend this home to anyone who is seeking a caring home for an elderly relative which you can trust at all levels.

A small home with friendly staff who don't change over. Very happy to help in whatever way they can. Made the transition into the home for mum as easy as they could. Mum likes the staff who are always friendly and go out of their way to help. It is never easy moving to a care home but the staff at Oakworth have made it the best possible experience.

Home Dining
At Oakworth Manor, we firmly believe that people ought to eat the food they enjoy. A dietician might pull their hair our but we continue to adhere to the view that the enjoyment of food takes preference over healthy eating though hopefully the two things are not always in opposition.
We give food a very high priority. The main reason is, that it is one pleasure we can all enjoy, and secondly we have found that older people, especially when alone, just can't be bothered to prepare food for themselves so eating an appetising range of food is a vital aspect of feeling better.
All meals are prepared in the modern kitchen using fresh ingredients. Special diets are catered for and residents suggestions regarding the variety of the menus are encouraged.
Meals may be taken our elegant dining room, or in the residents own room if preferred. We at Oakworth Manor are exceedingly flexible and are more than happy to accommodate your routine. You may choose to continue your routine or adapt to life within our home.
Meal Times:
BELOW IS A TYPICAL DAILY MENU
Breakfast:
Lunch: - (Wine is also available on request)
Supper:
The menus are varied on a daily basis and of course are different during the summer and winter periods.
Most meats and vegetables are locally and organically sourced and all of the eggs we use are free range. We make all our own cakes, puddings and pastries and have now added freshly made hot soups, served with oven baked rolls, all of which are homemade on the premises.
For prospective residents, we invite them and their relatives to come and have lunch with us and sample our wonderful cuisine.
