Why families choose OSJCT in Adderbury
Choosing a care home in Adderbury isn’t simply about services; it’s about trust, reassurance, and feeling confident that your loved one will be treated with dignity and kindness. Families tell us they value the sense of calm, consistency, and genuine warmth they experience from the very first conversation.
Care that feels personal, not institutional
In our Adderbury home, care begins with understanding the individual. We take time to learn about life stories, routines, preferences, and the small details that bring comfort.
That personal knowledge shapes daily support, helping residents settle more quickly and maintain a sense of identity and belonging.
Skilled teams you can rely on
Our care and nursing teams combine professional expertise with compassion and attentiveness. Familiar faces, clear communication, and consistent routines help residents feel secure, while families feel informed and supported.
As needs change, care plans adapt thoughtfully and without disruption.
Simple guide to fees & funding
Paying for long-term residential or nursing care can feel overwhelming, and understandably so. Unlike NHS healthcare, care home services are not free for most people. How much you contribute depends on personal circumstances, including income, assets, and care needs. At OSJCT, we aim to make the process of funding care as clear as possible.
What affects the cost of care?
- Type of care - residential, nursing, dementia, or respite
- Location - care costs in Adderbury may differ from other parts of the UK
- Individual needs - the level of daily support required
- Financial circumstances - state or private funding
What funding options are available?
- NHS Funded Nursing Care (FNC): A weekly payment from the NHS to contribute toward the cost of nursing care if it is required. This does not cover all care home fees - only the nursing element.
- Local authority funding: Means-tested support from your local council based on your finances and care needs. This may include schemes such as Deferred Payment Agreements, which allow you to use the value of your home to fund care, or the 12-Week Property Disregard, where your home is temporarily ignored in financial assessments if you have been in hospital or are receiving permanent care.
- Self-funding: If your savings and assets exceed the threshold for local authority support, you will need to pay privately for your care. Independent financial advice is recommended to plan effectively and explore all available options.
Getting the right guidance
Care funding can be complex, so we always recommend speaking with an independent specialist care fees adviser. OSJCT is affiliated with SOLLA (Society of Later Life Advisers), a professional body dedicated to advisers specialising in later-life financial planning, including care home funding.
A warm, village-connected setting
Adderbury’s close-knit village atmosphere helps create a quieter, more personal feel. Our home reflects that sense of community, with welcoming shared spaces, time spent outdoors when possible, and gentle activities that encourage connection.
Families often notice the difference: a calmer environment, meaningful interactions, and a genuine sense of reassurance.
Safety, expertise & not-for-profit transparency
As a charitable trust, OSJCT reinvests every penny back into our homes, colleagues, and residents, never shareholders.
Families can feel confident knowing our focus is always on people, not profit. This commitment means care in our Adderbury homes remains safe, personal, and sustainable for the future, guided by strong governance and values.
Mum went in to The Lake House for respite while Dad was in hospital. The amazing team helped her settle very quickly and it was so reassuring to see her comfortable, safe and happy. She also celebrated her birthday during her stay and they were so lovely, making her the most amazing cake and singing happy birthday. She said it was the best birthday ever. We are so grateful and thankful.

Life in our Adderbury care home
Life in our Adderbury care home is shaped around familiar routines, gentle encouragement, and everyday moments that help people feel settled and secure. Whether someone enjoys a lively chat over tea or prefers a quieter time with a book, daily life is guided by personal preference.
Meals are freshly prepared and enjoyed together in comfortable dining spaces. Residents are supported to take part in activities if they wish, from light exercise and creative sessions to relaxed afternoons in the garden. Others may choose calmer routines, and that choice is always respected.
Families and friends remain an important part of daily life. Visits are welcomed and encouraged, whether it’s a short catch-up, celebrating a birthday, or simply spending time together. We aim to make the home feel open, familiar, and connected, not separate from the world outside.
How to choose the right care home in Adderbury
Choosing a care home in Adderbury is an important decision, and it’s natural to want reassurance before taking the next step. Whether you’re planning ahead or responding to a sudden change, focusing on a few simple considerations can help bring clarity.
- Start with care needs: Think about the level of support required now and how that may change over time. Whether that’s residential, dementia, nursing, or short-term respite care, it helps to understand how flexible a home can be as needs evolve.
- Visit and trust your instincts: Seeing a home in person makes a real difference. Meeting the team, observing daily life, and getting a feel for the atmosphere often tells you more than any brochure can. Many families say they “just knew” when a place felt right.
- Consider location and familiarity: Being close to Banbury, Oxfordshire villages, or familiar surroundings in and around Adderbury can make settling in easier. Regular visits from family and friends play an important role in wellbeing and reassurance.
Many families find our Care Home Checklist helpful when comparing options. It highlights key questions to ask and the small details that often make the biggest difference to everyday comfort and confidence.
