We are situated in the beautiful market town of Chipping Norton in the gorgeous, rolling Cotswold Hills in the district of Oxfordshire, about 12 miles (19 km) southwest of Banbury and 18 miles (29 km) northwest of Oxford. We provide 24-hour nursing care and personal support to frail older people, people with long term illnesses, people with sensory deficits and people living with dementia.
Dementia Care
'Memory Lane' utilises a careful blend of skills and techniques developed by leading experts in the field of dementia care, incorporating person-centred design in its use of colour and cues to help individuals navigate through the home, whilst thoughtful interior design features, such us adapted crockery and tableware assists with reminiscence. Communities are broken up into separate units with a family feel so people can feel safe and comfortable. Care is focused on independence, dignity and choice, with a person-centred approach. Staffing levels reflect the needs of residents, and people living with dementia are offered a range of activities to help preserve life skills, support interactions and retain a sense of purpose and selfhood.
Our approach to care is based on careful assessments leading to a personalised and regularly reviewed care plan. Drawn up with the individual concerned and with relatives the care plan provides the basis for medical and rehabilitative work, making sure that dietary needs and preferences are met and the basis for our activities work, which we see as the heart of what we do - to keep up to date with our latest activities and events, please keep popping back to our website to see what we have been up to and what is coming up.

Shilpa Nair
Hi, I'm Shilpa and I am the General Manager here at Southerndown Care Home. Welcome to our website.
I have been a registered nurse since 2012 and elder care is my passion. Before working at Southerndown I was the Deputy Manager at one of our sister homes.
I love working for Barchester and leading the team in the care and support of residents to provide a quality service that meets their individual needs. We have a truly lovely home and a fantastic team.
At Southerndown we are creating a community that is as homely, happy and active as possible. Striving to make sure the residents are leading interesting fulfilled lives is at the centre of our aims here. We treat every resident with the care that we would want shown to our own family.
Please feel free to drop in for a chat and to learn more about life at our home.
