We really appreciated the speed of response after we first contacted Pentlands, and all arrangements they made for appropriate transport. Our mother's end-of-life care was outstanding. Support to family members in difficult and unexpected circumstances was excellent.

Although Mum's stay with Pentlands was very brief, the care and support shown was wonderful. The attention to detail in caring my mum was both sensitive and caring. Once Mum had passed away, the manager was very supportive and respectful. All the staff were helpful and caring, and we can't speak
more highly of Pentlands.
It is just a pity my mum wasn't able to have more time at Pentlands, and enjoy Pentlands.

Sadly our Mum recently passed away in Pentlands after 8 days of palliative care. From the moment mum arrived, the standard of care and support was exceptional. It was clear from the outset that everyone at Pentlands was highly trained, attentive, and compassionate. From the wonderful matron Debbie
and Mum's primary care nurse Ella, through to all of the nurses, carers, caterers and maintenance staff, my family cannot speak highly enough of this nursing home.
Mum being Mum, she made a quick impression on all the staff and they always looked out for her. No request was too small. All of her visiting family and friends were made to feel welcome. Facilities modern and clean. Food excellent.
As devastated as we are by mum's loss, it is comforting to know she received the best possible care at the end of her life. This being Worthing, there are plenty of nursing homes to choose from. I would highly recommend Pentlands without hesitation.

I have visited Pentlands over 20 years for friends and my husband nine years ago. Always well impressed especially as staff are happy and here for long periods, some over 20 years.

Have been in Pentlands Nursing Home for two months on respite care following a fall in January
Everything about this home is super
Care food and in particular the staff who are all friendly and caring
I am 91 years old and I have been looked after superbly and a little apprehensive about going
home to my flat alone on Wednesday

Very caring and compassionate staff. My mother very much looks forward to the lunch clubs and entertainments provided in the afternoons. The staff are very approachable and always ready to help and support the family.

My wife has been at Pentlands since last year, and I have found her stay here wonderful, the staff are so caring, thoughtful and very understanding, calling her by her first name and making her comfortable. I find it very rewarding. I myself find all the staff are excellent from Matron to cleaners,
altogether great teamwork.

My brother's stay was sadly quite short (for palliative care) but the standard of care and support was excellent throughout. Every member of staff I was in contact with impressed with their professionalism and kindness. This is clearly a well-run home with the individualised care of its residents at
its heart. The atmosphere and environment is comfortable, smart and relaxing - but the home is equipped with high-grade equipment and procedures. (Even when there was a change of shift, it was clear there was always a smooth and proper handover.) We have no criticisms, only praise to offer - and will be forever grateful that our brother was so well cared for at the end of his life.

I cannot fault the care, kindness and love shown to my dear mother during her time at Pentlands. The staff could not have done more to ensure her comfort and safety were their priority at all times.
Mum spent her final days safe and happy.
29 January 2026
I highly recommend Pentlands Nursing Home. All the staff, whatever their role, are kind, caring and very good at what they do. They clearly care about the residents and their families. My mum was made to feel very welcome and at home from the minute she arrived. There are lots of activities for
residents and their visitors join in with, and the food is delicious. It gives me great peace of mind to know that my mum is being so well cared for in such a homely environment.

Mum moved into Pentlands about 7 weeks ago.
After being so independent and active just a few months ago, it was a massive change to suddenly need 24 hour care, 7 days a week.
The nurses, carers, kitchen staff, cleaners and all the other staff have made it a smooth a transition as possible. They
are all so kind, helpful and caring. Mum and I love to see all their smiling faces as they go about their caring work.
Mum never feels rushed with their care towards her, and loves that they take time to chat and help to make her laugh in such a difficult personal time.
All the staff seem to go above and beyond for the people they look after.
The food is great, mum hasn't had one meal she has not eaten!
They offer fun activities in the lounge for those who like some company and things to do.
We would thoroughly recommend Pentlands for anyone looking for a nursing home that goes that bit extra for their loved one!

My Aunt sadly passed away this month, after a stay of some 17 months at Pentlands. When she arrived, the family had been advised that she probably had 3 months life expectancy as a result of stage 4 cancer. As a result, she was in for full medical care. Some 17 months later, she decided that it was
her time. The management and staff, we believe, provided the care, support and compassion that made the last year and a half possible. Her quality of life was enhanced by those at Pentlands, and it was clear that not only had she grown incredibly fond of them, it genuinely felt that it was reciprocated.
All staff demonstrated a level of understanding, not just of her care needs, but of her as an individual, which speaks volumes, and un until the last few weeks, our Aunt had been happy and content, which is only down to the care and attention provided.
The management at Pentlands have been amazing, always available to talk, help and give guidance and advise when needed. Thank you.

My wife is a resident needing 24 hour nursing care since July 23. She has her own room, which is kept very clean at all times. The care staff are very professional, carrying out their duties with empathy and humour. The nurses are the same and the domestic workers are also like this. The facilities
are first class and well maintained. Activities and entertainment are provided on most days and are very good. Visitors are always made welcome and encouraged to visit. Myself and our family have every confidence in the excellent, warm care provided. This is a safe home for my wife, with great care given 24 hours a day.
22 January 2026
Pentlands provides excellent care in a very friendly, comfortable, and supportive environment.
In fact, I would describe it as a true home from home, and relatives are considered as much as residents. Very good activities are arranged on a daily basis with some quality entertainment included. The
food provided is of top quality and well presented.

Mum moved into Pentlands at the start of December. Despite some apprehension at having to move into a nursing home the staff have made her feel at home. Nothing is too much trouble for the care/nursing staff. The food has been excellent especially over the Xmas period. They put on great activities
including a number of terrific singers which residents and guests are encouraged to join in with. They even sorted the funded nursing care benefit to help with the costs. Relatives and friends are able to visit as often as they like and are made to feel very welcome too. The maintenance staff even hung up some bunting and offered to put up extra shelving. We would definitely recommend Pentlands to anyone looking for nursing care for themselves or a loved one

My mother in law resided in Pentlands from November 2021 as she required nursing care. From the start she was happy in her new home, loving her spacious, spotlessly clean, light room. However, it was the brilliant, attentive, supportive care she received that helped her settle so quickly making
her feel safe and secure in her new situation and surroundings. She came to regard all the amazing staff, in all roles, as her extended family. They took the time to know her and what she enjoyed, whether it was a treat of delicious cake at a local coffee shop or in her room, a competitive game of Scrabble or a good natter. All this on top of providing her with the daily care she needed. Her final years were spent in great comfort and were as full as possible. We will always be grateful to the whole team lead by their excellent manager who was always so professional and compassionate.

Pentlands Care Home has exceeded all our expectations in the care for my mother in the final few months of her life. All the staff are truly dedicated, offering an extremely high level of care. The care home is extremely clean and well maintained with large en-suite bedrooms and a lovely home from
home feel. My mum enjoyed the programme of social activities which are organised daily by the brilliant activity coordinators. The food is of a very high standard and the chefs are extremely accommodating and kind, nothing was too much trouble.
Most importantly, the staff treated my mother with dignity and kindness. It has been extremely reassuring to know that my mum not only received excellent care, but was also surrounded by people who truly care - nothing was too much trouble. I can't thank Pentlands enough for this wonderful experience, not only for my mum but for the whole family. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart, my family and I will always be so grateful.
20 March 2025
Thank you for making this last season of my mum's life so comfortable. I watched the staff care for her with tender gentleness as if she was your own relative. You made her feel safe and secure and even though she wasn't able to articulate that herself, just to see her smile at you said it all and
in so doing you were a huge support to me as well. From the nursing staff to carers, activity staff, chefs, cleaner and admin... you have all bee wonderful.

My lovely dad was a resident in Pentlands for 2 and a half years, this was a very hard decision as anyone would know when having to make this on behalf of a loved one so it's very important to get it right, which we did. In this time Dad got the best care I believe with the carers picking up
straight away if something wasn't right, the nursing staff, matron, clinical lead would act on it with nothing being too much trouble. I used to try and go in every day often at different times. Whether it would be the cleaning staff, laundry, activity they all became so important in Dad's care as they all played a part in taking time to chat to Dad. I was able to take my dog in and go at any time day or night and to me they all became a huge support knowing I could leave Dad there and he had the best of care. As my dear dad declined it was even more noticeable that nothing was too much trouble even the kitchen staff trying anything to try and get Dad to eat, I can't thank them all enough.
