About Us

Blatchington Manor is a residential care home in Seaford, East Sussex, caring for older people, including many living with dementia.

Families usually reach us tired. The decision to move a relative into a care home is rarely taken lightly and often follows a long stretch of managing at home with too little help. One of the most useful things we can do early is take some of that weight off, be honest about what we can and cannot offer, and make it possible for a daughter or a husband to go back to being family rather than a carer who never gets an evening off.

For the person moving in, the first weeks are what count. We want to know how they have always run their day, what they are proud of, who they want to hear from, what unsettles them and what makes an afternoon good. We write it down, we use it, and we keep correcting it as we learn.

Respite stays are available as well as permanent places.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Anyone considering a move is welcome to visit and take their time.
