Oake Meadows Nursing Home, located in the peaceful, residential area of Trull in Taunton, offers expert residential, nursing, dementia, respite and rehabilitation care.

Surrounded by open fields and countryside views, our spacious purpose-built home is split into five smaller communities — each with its own unique character, care specialism, and sense of home. From residential to advanced dementia and NHS-commissioned rehabilitation, we provide a full pathway of care tailored to each resident’s journey.

Oake Meadows is known for its warm and welcoming atmosphere. Despite our size, we never feel impersonal. Staff, residents, families and visitors all describe the home as friendly, comforting and full of heart.

Residents are supported to live as independently as possible, spending each day in a way that suits them — relaxing in the courtyard, sharing home-cooked meals, and joining in with a wide range of social activities and community events.

Oake Meadows Care Home is rated as ‘Good’ by the Care Quality Commission (CQC) , across all five of its assessment criteria of ‘safe’, ‘effective’, ‘responsive’, ‘caring’ and ‘well-led’ and is rated highly on carehome.co.uk and google reviews.

We’re proud to offer compassionate, person-centred care in a home that feels like family.

The staff are always so kind and welcoming. I am truly grateful for the incredible nursing staff who look after my nan so well. I wouldn’t want her to be anywhere else. I’m so pleased we picked this as my nan’s home.

The staff were very kind, compassionate and caring to my mum and our family. We could not have asked for better interactions from all staff, nurses, helpers, and cleaners. They treated the whole family with dignity, genuine care, and support.
