About OSJCT Old Station House
We at OSJCT Old Station House are proud to offer warm, compassionate residential care in the historic market town of Abingdon, Oxfordshire. As a dedicated residential care home specialising in support for older people, including those living with dementia, we provide a nurturing environment where every resident is treated with the dignity, kindness, and respect they deserve. Nestled within the welcoming community of Abingdon, our home benefits from its position in one of Oxfordshire's most charming towns, well connected to the wider South East region and easily accessible for visiting families across the OX postcode area. The setting offers a comforting blend of familiar local character and peaceful surroundings, helping residents feel truly at home from the moment they arrive. Our care is thoughtfully tailored to meet the needs of each individual who joins our community. For older people seeking long term residential care, we offer a gentle rhythm of daily life where personal preferences, routines, and interests are placed at the heart of everything we do. For those living with dementia, our team provides patient, understanding support designed to promote reassurance, familiarity, and moments of genuine connection. Small touches, from a favourite cup of tea to a shared conversation about treasured memories, help our residents feel valued and understood. We also recognise that families sometimes need short term support, whether following a hospital stay, during a period of recovery, or to provide relief for a loved one who usually cares at home. Our respite care welcomes guests for shorter stays with the same warmth and attentiveness we offer to our permanent residents, giving families peace of mind whilst their loved one enjoys a comfortable break in a supportive setting. Our approach centres on getting to know each person as an individual. We take the time to understand life stories, preferences, and hopes, so that care feels personal rather than routine. Families are always welcomed as partners in this journey, and we encourage open conversation, regular visits, and shared involvement in care planning wherever possible. We are pleased to hold an overall rating of Good from the Care Quality Commission, following our most recent inspection. Inspectors recognised the quality of our care as Good across the Effective, Caring, Responsive, and Well led domains, reflecting the dedication of our team and the meaningful relationships we build with those we support. The Safe domain was noted as Requires Improvement, and we have taken this feedback seriously, using it as an opportunity to strengthen our practices and continue raising standards for the people who trust us with their care. Choosing a care home is one of the most important decisions a family can make, and we understand the emotions that come with it. If you are exploring residential care, dementia support, or respite options in Abingdon, we warmly invite you to get in touch or arrange a visit.
