My mother has been in this home for two years now. Every time I visit, the staff are friendly. The home is clean. It has a homely, caring atmosphere and it has a fresh odour. There are great activities provided often. Fun banter and conversation between her and the staff occur daily and the home is
accommodating of her social life and outings. The friends that visit my Mum echo the exact same sentiments as I. This is an excellent home.

Elizabeth House offers an outstanding level of care. The staff are warm, welcoming and willing to be helpful.
Both my husband and I think that, if he has to be in a care home, he could do no better.
The architecture of the home gives an open feeling to the building. The rooms are kept clean and appropriately
furnished. As a relative, I feel well supported by all members of staff.

I have been really happy with my brother's care so far. He is very happy and usually, very well cared for. He is able to make his own choices and move freely around the home and he is well fed and is offered drinks regularly. He has his own room with his belongings displayed, sometimes his belongings
go missing which is frustrating as they are always marked with his name.

Excellent care home. Welcoming, warm, always a smile for residents and staff.
Dementia is a complex condition and the staff handle the tough challenge that this presents with consistent professionalism and patience which we could never hope to achieve at home.
Thank you for your cheerful kindness
and care.

My mother had been resident here for the past two and a half years until her passing in June. Over this period her dementia became progressively worse, but the team have her love, kindness and care throughout this difficult period. Our unannounced visits were always treated with warmth, and they always
answered, with honesty any questions or queries we had. As a family, we can't thank them enough. Great place and a great team.

My father had vascular dementia and lived in Elizabeth House for a number of years and he was always so well cared for. The staff are extremely caring and my father always looked lovely, clean, shaven, tidy and happy. The home was always immaculate and the food always looked delicious. My dad joined
in activities as and when he felt like it and was supported by lovely staff. Staff decorated a private room for my parents 60th wedding anniversary November 2017, way beyond the call of duty! My father left Elizabeth House in June 2018 to go into a nursing home and sadly died on 11th September, three of the care staff of Elizabeth House travelled to Worthing from Bognor Regis on their day off to attend my fathers funeral. They wanted to come and say a final goodbye to our dad. Our family were overwhelmed with their kindness and its a clear sign of how well liked, looked after and cared for our father was in this amazing home. Thank you Elizabeth House.

Elizabeth House is an amazing place, it's kept spotlessly clean and the residents are always clean and tidy, the food always looks and smells lovely. My mum spent 4 years at Elizabeth House until she passed away on 12th March 2018. The care and love she received were just amazing the staff gave her
and us 110% care, kindness and support and she was treated with dignity and love at a very difficult time.

My mother has been a resident for two years now, during that time the high standard of care has not wavered. The home is always clean and tidy and the bright airy corridors give a sanctuary for all residents to have their own space. The staff are very thoughtful to both residents and their relatives,
keeping you updated if any additional medical intervention is required. The knowledge that my mother is well cared for in a safe and happy environment is priceless.

I'm not hoping to have to go into a care home but then I'm guessing few of us do, but if and when I do I would definitely put Elizabeth House to the top of my list. I have visited my friend many times and have always been struck by the atmosphere and ethos, the friendliness of all the staff and the
ease with which my friend has settled in continues to thrive and it smells nice which is always a good sign!

Current Review Score: 9.9 (9.908)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.9 (9.908) out of 10 for Elizabeth House is based on a) the Average Rating and b) the number of positive Reviews.

  • a) The Average Rating is 4.9 out of 5 from 26 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 5.0 out of 5 from 26 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 4.908 for Elizabeth House is calculated as follows: ( (281 Excellents x 5) + (22 Goods x 4) + (3 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 306 Ratings = 4.908

  • 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 Elizabeth House is based on 26 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 60 registered maximum number of service users is 12, which has been reached with 26 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.
