About OSJCT Old Station House
OSJCT Old Station House supports older people with residential and dementia care, alongside nursing care for recovery or longer-term needs. The not-for-profit organisation also offers respite, intermediate and day care across its wider service.
Care plans are shaped around each resident’s life story, preferences, routines and interests. Daily activities can include gardening, music and baking, while dementia support uses clear signage, supportive layouts and meaningful occupation. This approach helps residents remain connected to familiar abilities and interests. The home is therefore relevant to families seeking structured care that reflects an individual’s history and routines.

Questions families ask
What dementia training do staff have?
All care employees complete mandatory dementia training covering risk reduction, communication, behaviour, living with dementia and promoting independence. Some parts of the training pathway are endorsed by Dementia UK and supported by the Trust’s learning and development advisers.
How are care plans personalised there?
Teams learn each resident’s life story, preferences, routines and interests, then use this information to shape care plans, daily activities and familiar routines. This helps care reflect the individual and what matters to them.
Is nursing care supervised around the clock?
Yes. Nursing care is supervised by Registered Nurses who are on duty all day and all night. They are trained to recognise changes in a resident’s condition and decide when to involve a doctor or another health professional.
How much does OSJCT Old Station House cost?
The CQC register does not list fees, so ask OSJCT Old Station House for its weekly fee. As a guide, Oxfordshire council paid on average £1,013 a week for a residential care place for people aged 65 and over in 2024-2025, against £982 across England (GOV.UK adult social care finance report). People who pay for their own care are usually charged more than councils pay.
