What we offer
Our aim is to help you maximise independence in your daily life so that you can do the things you want to do. We will work with you in your own environment: at home, in your day centre, at work, as an outpatient or in an inpatient bed at Queen Mary’s Hospital site. We can work with you, your family, friends or carers.
There are specialists on our team who can help with specific issues, like returning to work.
How to access the service
You can be referred to our service by:
Please note that we are not an emergency service. If you need help urgently, please contact your GP. We aim to make initial contact with you within seven days of referral.
Our service is open 7 days a week. For telephone queries, you can contact us Monday to Friday 8.30am to 4.30pm.
The Oxleas Patient Experience survey gives you the opportunity to feedback on the care and treatment you have received. We also encourage your friends, family and carers to also provide feedback. Hearing your views gives us a better understanding of the needs of our patients, families and carers which helps us to make sure that we are providing a good standard of care.
The short survey only takes a few minutes to complete and you can provide a written comment explaining what you think is working well and what is not. The Patient Experience team will collect the results of the surveys and these are shared with the relevant departments and management teams. This helps us to shape our services to continually improve the quality of the care and treatment we provide.
