  • Offington Park Rest Home, Worthing
Offington Park is a care home with a real “at-home” feel. Walking through the converted house, Offington offers a unique charm and comfort that you don’t experience with larger homes.

From the moment a new resident arrives, they are provided with a bespoke care and activities package. No request is too big or too small. The friendly team are highly experienced and are trained in all aspects of non-nursing care, with a close working relationship with other health care professionals to ensure the highest levels of care and support for their residents.

The meals provided are cooked daily with fresh ingredients, with the menu being created around the likes and dislikes of the residents. A variety of diets can be catered for and residents have a choice of where they would like to eat; communally in the dining room, in the conservatory looking out at the garden, or in their rooms for some peace and privacy if that is what they prefer.

Every day at Offington Park is different and is focused on the needs of the individuals in the small community they have built.

If you would like to come and visit, the staff would be more than happy to welcome you and show you around the home they are so proud of.

My uncle came to live here following an extended hospital stay in February 2025. When discharged from hospital he was in very poor health and spirits, thin depressed and suffering from a chest infection that the hospital had failed to manage. He has now been living at Offington Park for 4 months he
is healthy and happy and looks so much better. He receives 1st class care from the doctor who attends the home on a regular basis, the physio who gets him doing his exercises the staff who constantly pop in to say hello, his foot care, his haircuts and his nails are all carried out on a regular basis and the manager is always available if you have any queries. I am extremely happy with the level of care and service here. I can now relax knowing that my uncle is safe, happy, no longer lonely and well cared fo, after years of worrying about him, as he lived alone since his wife's passing 1.5 hours away from me.

Our father entered Offington Park in October 2024 and as soon as we arrived the atmosphere in the care home was warm and friendly - we were made to feel very welcome from the outset which is testament to the entire care home team who have proved themselves to our family to be very professional, kind,
sensitive, caring and patient. They have all taken the time to get to know our father and make him feel at home treating him with dignity, giving him encouragement, independence and privacy when needed and most importantly keeping him safe while ensuring that his needs are met. The staff show a high level of understanding of dementia and are experts in diffusing any challenging situation that may arise. With activities each day, residents birthday celebrations and parties for the residents families to enjoy plus good homemade food, great cakes and a nice outdoor space to enjoy the sunshine we would not hesitate to recommend this home to anyone looking for care for their loved one.

Despite efforts to look after our mother at home after she returned from hospital showing signs of advanced dementia, it soon became obvious that the amount of care she required was beyond anything we could provide & led us to seek residential care for her.


We visited numerous homes locally & happily

found Offington Park. We were given a tour, shown all available rooms & had all our questions answered. The difference in care, accommodation & general atmosphere between previous homes we had seen & that clearly on display at Offington was like night & day, prompting us to register my mother immediately.


Since that day we have experienced nothing but a friendly, professional, caring environment that we are happy for our mother to be part of & which extends to the whole family during our visits.


Offington Park deserves plentiful recognition for the first class service they offer and we are grateful for the care our mother is receiving.

Being from a family with a majority working in care, myself included, we were incredibly lucky to find this home for my mum.
We spoke with the manager and explained our needs for mum. The manager made us all feel very welcome, with a cup of tea. She explained how everything works and the financial
aspect.
The manager is a new manager and from the times we have spoken I can honestly say that she is so lovely, very informative and considerate.
The home is going through some refurbishment, so does at the moment look a little untidy, but if you are able to look pass that you can see a really lovely little home
(about 23 residents I believe)
Mum has been there about 5 weeks now and she tells me that every member of staff are lovely too, not a normal response for mum.
I cannot speak highly enough for this little home and I want to thank all the staff for looking after mum so well

My Dad has been at Offington Park Rest Home for 2 and a half years. He has dementia, but has been well looked after by all the staff. In January 2024 Dad had a stroke and lost the mobility in his right side so is now wheelchair bound. The staff have adapted to this so well. We are very lucky that
his room has a hoist which enables him to be lifted from bed to wheelchair and back at the end of the day so that he can enjoy activities in the lounge with the other residents and not feel stuck in his room the whole time. I think Dad is happy there, and I feel that he is safe and well cared for.

My father has settled in very well in this home, much quicker and better than I expected.. The staff are excellent and have been very responsive to any queries that we have had, and very welcoming. He enjoys the company of the staff and residents. Also the entertainment provided - particularly the musician
who pays guitar/violin and sings. The home is very clean and the garden sheltered and well maintained. We are very satisfied.

My Mum was a resident at Offington Park for 2 1/2 years. I looked into moving her closer to us, but I was reluctant to take her away from the superb care she got there. The staff are so caring and committed: they went over and above for Mum. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Offington Park - particularly
for dementia care. I can never thank the staff enough for making my Mum feel safe, secure and cared-for in her final years.

My father was looked after at Offington Park Rest Home for nearly a year, sadly dad passed away in December. As a family we cannot express how well looked after he was there, especially the last few weeks. All the staff were so caring and they all felt like family to us which was so important to us
as a family, nothing was ever to much trouble always making sure we were OK normally with tea and cake which was always appreciated thank you to all the staff for your hard work.

Dad joined Offington Park just before the first lockdown, from hospital. It was imperative a home was found quickly and we had the very good fortune to find Offington. Dad's care at Offington was exemplary and we know he was very happy there as he was always telling us! He had a lovely rapport with
the staff who showed care and compassion towards him. Indeed this care, compassion and love was shown to both us and Dad on his passing. We can't thank every one of the staff enough!

My mum needed to be transferred from having a live in carer at home to becoming a resident in a care home. Although my mum has only been in Offington Park Rest Home for a few days we found the whole process seamless. The care home manager and their team have been brilliant. The prepared my mum's room
in a lovely way and it looks so 'homely'. All the carers seem lovely and very engaging with Mum. Although it is still early days we couldn't be happier for Mum and the care she's getting at Offington Park.

My nan has been a resident at Offington for over four years now and she was always reluctant to go into a care home but being at Offington she has been very happy, enjoys the food and has a great rapport with all the staff. Nan always speaks highly of the home and as a family, we couldn't ask for a
better place for my Nan.

My dad has Alzheimer’s and sadly was no longer able to live safely at home alone, therefore, last September, we took the difficult decision to place him in a care home. We were able to visit Offington Park Rest Home beforehand, both just my husband and I and then with Dad too. Whilst he wasn’t really
sure about staying there (and still doesn’t recognise it as ‘home’, but didn’t recognise his bungalow of the last 36 years as home either), he is safe, and the staff have been nothing but kind and caring to Dad, and always helpful and kind to myself and my family when visiting, and keeping us informed of anything we need to know.

I would thoroughly recommend Offington Park Rest Home.
The staff are very considerate and take time to pay attention to detail.
I am always made very welcome whenever I visit.
Knowing that my husband is so well looked after gives me great peace of mind. The home meets all resident's needs and even
makes the family dog welcome.
The entertainment involves all the residents and is second to none.

We can’t thank the care team enough for the care they gave to our mum, who had Alzheimer’s. From the very beginning to the very sad few days and hours of our beloved mum. The communication was excellent between us, and we were always made to feel very welcome. We stayed a couple of nights towards the
precious hours and were supplied with welcome cups of tea and biscuits. Every step along the way was kindly considered for our Mum to make her comfortable, and we knew that Mum was in good hands at all times when we couldn’t be there. We will be forever thankful for the whole team’s commitment. Much love and forever thanks to the whole team.

Reply from Cassie Wills, Marketing and Lifestyles Manager at Offington Park Rest Home

Thank you, Julie, for these touching words. We were privileged to support mum, and you, during such an important and sensitive time. We consider our residents and their loved ones our family, and we couldn't imagine caring for you all any other way.

The staff pulled all the stops out for Aunty's special birthday this last weekend - nothing was too much trouble.
She enjoys sitting in the garden in the summer but, mostly, seems to prefer her own room as her sight and mobility are failing now.

Mum has been at Offington Park for four and a half years and I have never been less than 100% satisfied with how she has been cared for throughout that time.
Despite her slight confusion (she will be 94 this year) she always appears happy when we visit; well fed and entertained, and of course, her
personal care is superb.
When she has had medical issues we have always been quickly informed, and the matter resolved with the GP and/or paramedics.
The staff are so friendly, not only to mum but also to us when we visit, and our grandchildren (Mum's great-grandchildren) when we take them in to see her.
Hopefully, she will be with us for a number of years, and I am hopeful and happy that she will spend as much of that time as possible at Offington Park.

Current Review Score: 9.8 (9.783)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.8 (9.783) out of 10 for Offington Park Rest Home is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.8 out of 5 from 13 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months.

Detailed Breakdown of Review Score

The maximum Review Score for a Care Home is 10, which is made up from the Average Rating of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) and the Number of Reviews (maximum of 5 points) in the last 24 months:

  • a) 5 Points are available for the Average Rating from all Reviews in the last 24 months.

    The Average Rating of 4.783 for Offington Park Rest Home is calculated as follows: ( (121 Excellents x 5) + (29 Goods x 4) + (2 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 152 Ratings = 4.783

  • b) 5 Points are available for the number of Positive Reviews in the last 24 months. A Positive Review is defined as any Review with an 'Overall Experience' of '4' or '5' (out of a max rating '5').

    The 5 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Offington Park Rest Home is based on 13 positive Reviews in the last 24 months and is calculated as per below:

    The 5 points available are broken down as follows:

    • i) 4 points are available for the first 10 Positive Reviews in the last 24 months; 3 points for the first Positive Review, and then 0.125 Points for each of the next four Positive Reviews and then 0.1 Points for the next five Positive Reviews. (1st = 3.000, 2nd = 0.125, 3rd = 0.125, 4th = 0.125, 5th = 0.125, 6th = 0.100, 7th = 0.100, 8th = 0.100, 9th = 0.100, 10th = 0.100) 3 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.125 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 + 0.1 = 4

    • ii) 1 point is available for the number of Positive Reviews reaching 20% of the registered maximum number of service users in the last 24 months. If this number is partially reached, then that proportion of 1 point is given. eg a Care Home registered for a maximum of 50 service users has to reach 10 Positive Reviews to receive 1 point, if it has 7 reviews it will receive 0.7 points. 20% of the 23 registered maximum number of service users is 4.6, which has been reached with 13 Positive reviews. Points = 1

  • When a Review is submitted by someone who has previously submitted a Review, only the latest Review will count towards the Review Score.

  • If a Care Home does not have a review in the last 24 months, then it will not have a Review Score.

Job Title: Home Manager

Joined: 2024

I'm Sandy, and I’m thrilled to have recently taken on the role of Manager at Offington. This is an exciting new chapter in my 24-year career in care. I began as a Care Assistant and have worked hard over the years to learn best practices, ensuring that our residents receive the highest standard of care and that our staff feel supported and valued. My commitment to care comes from a deeply personal place—I believe in treating every resident with the same level of care and compassion that I would want for my own family members. Outside of work, I enjoy attending car shows and have a real passion for all things Disney! I am looking forward to leading Offington Park into it's new chapter, and I can't wait to invite you all to our next community event.
