Haven Care Home

About Us

Haven Care Home is a nursing home in Peacehaven, East Sussex. We provide nursing care for older people and younger adults, we support people living with dementia and people with a physical disability, and we offer respite stays for those who need care for a shorter period.

Qualified nurses on site mean that somebody whose health is complicated or changeable can stay with us as their needs increase rather than moving on, and that clinical decisions are made promptly by people who already know the person well. We would far rather manage something early than watch it turn into a hospital admission.

The nursing is only part of what makes a place worth living in, though. Most of what makes a day good happens elsewhere, in conversation, in familiar belongings, in a chair by a window and in family who come and go easily rather than feeling like visitors to an institution.

For people living with dementia we ask families to tell us who somebody has been across their life, and that knowledge is what allows staff to steady a person who is anxious rather than simply manage a difficult moment.

Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are considering Haven for someone close to you, please visit, meet the nursing team and ask us whatever you need to.
