About Woodlands Nursing Home

Woodlands Nursing Home is in Burgess Hill, caring for older people whose health needs have gone beyond what can be managed comfortably at home. Having qualified nurses here at every hour means changes in somebody's condition are picked up early and dealt with calmly, which often spares a person an avoidable hospital admission. A large part of our work is with people living with dementia. We keep the day unhurried and predictable, we make sure people see faces they recognise and we pay attention to the details that anchor somebody. We also care for people living with a physical disability and people with sight or hearing loss, where dignity and sensible practical adjustments matter as much as clinical care, and for younger adults, whose day we plan around their own interests. Respite care is available too. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is outstanding. We are proud of that and also realistic about what it means. A rating reflects a point in time. What keeps a home good is the ordinary daily effort, knowing how each person likes their morning to go and noticing when somebody has gone quiet. Please come and see the place for yourself.
