I like OHI and have owned it in the past. It has decent fundamentals, great dividend yield, and good dividend growth. I wouldn't consider it a core position, but with an ~8% yield you can dedicate significantly less capital and still earn roughly the same annual dividend as your core positions.
The general risks are further interest rate hikes from the Fed, and possible over reliance on payments from government entitlement programs.
You may want to review taxes, since dividend taxes for REITS are different than C-Corps for US investors. I'm not sure how the taxes would work for UK investors.
I bought OHI at $27.XX earlier this year and sold it all at $36 a few months ago. My general rule for OHI over the past year or so is that any price below $30 is a good buy. I'm thinking about reopening my position now that the Fed rate hike has occurred.
