About The Oleaster – Birmingham
The Oleaster in Edgbaston, Birmingham, is an inpatient hospital run by Birmingham and Solihull Mental Health NHS Foundation Trust, providing care for adults and children under the Mental Health Act 1983.

The Oleaster Reviews and Ratings
Patients, families and professionals who have experience of The Oleaster are encouraged to leave a review on RehabSeekers, since no hospital-specific CQC rating is currently published for this site, which makes lived experience here more valuable than usual.
Because the hospital serves both adults and children’s services, reviews that specify which part of the hospital someone’s experience relates to will be more helpful to other families than a general comment.
