  • Offington Park Rest Home, Worthing
Offington Park is a care home with a real “at-home” feel. Walking through the converted house, Offington offers a unique charm and comfort that you don’t experience with larger homes.

From the moment a new resident arrives, they are provided with a bespoke care and activities package. No request is too big or too small. The friendly team are highly experienced and are trained in all aspects of non-nursing care, with a close working relationship with other health care professionals to ensure the highest levels of care and support for their residents.

The meals provided are cooked daily with fresh ingredients, with the menu being created around the likes and dislikes of the residents. A variety of diets can be catered for and residents have a choice of where they would like to eat; communally in the dining room, in the conservatory looking out at the garden, or in their rooms for some peace and privacy if that is what they prefer.

Every day at Offington Park is different and is focused on the needs of the individuals in the small community they have built.

If you would like to come and visit, the staff would be more than happy to welcome you and show you around the home they are so proud of.

My father was looked after at Offington Park Rest Home for nearly a year, sadly dad passed away in December. As a family we cannot express how well looked after he was there, especially the last few weeks. All the staff were so caring and they all felt like family to us which was so important to us
as a family, nothing was ever to much trouble always making sure we were OK normally with tea and cake which was always appreciated thank you to all the staff for your hard work.

Dad joined Offington Park just before the first lockdown, from hospital. It was imperative a home was found quickly and we had the very good fortune to find Offington. Dad's care at Offington was exemplary and we know he was very happy there as he was always telling us! He had a lovely rapport with
the staff who showed care and compassion towards him. Indeed this care, compassion and love was shown to both us and Dad on his passing. We can't thank every one of the staff enough!

My mum needed to be transferred from having a live in carer at home to becoming a resident in a care home. Although my mum has only been in Offington Park Rest Home for a few days we found the whole process seamless. The care home manager and their team have been brilliant. The prepared my mum's room
in a lovely way and it looks so 'homely'. All the carers seem lovely and very engaging with Mum. Although it is still early days we couldn't be happier for Mum and the care she's getting at Offington Park.

My nan has been a resident at Offington for over four years now and she was always reluctant to go into a care home but being at Offington she has been very happy, enjoys the food and has a great rapport with all the staff. Nan always speaks highly of the home and as a family, we couldn't ask for a
better place for my Nan.

My dad has Alzheimer’s and sadly was no longer able to live safely at home alone, therefore, last September, we took the difficult decision to place him in a care home. We were able to visit Offington Park Rest Home beforehand, both just my husband and I and then with Dad too. Whilst he wasn’t really
sure about staying there (and still doesn’t recognise it as ‘home’, but didn’t recognise his bungalow of the last 36 years as home either), he is safe, and the staff have been nothing but kind and caring to Dad, and always helpful and kind to myself and my family when visiting, and keeping us informed of anything we need to know.

I would thoroughly recommend Offington Park Rest Home.
The staff are very considerate and take time to pay attention to detail.
I am always made very welcome whenever I visit.
Knowing that my husband is so well looked after gives me great peace of mind. The home meets all resident's needs and even
makes the family dog welcome.
The entertainment involves all the residents and is second to none.

We can’t thank the care team enough for the care they gave to our mum, who had Alzheimer’s. From the very beginning to the very sad few days and hours of our beloved mum. The communication was excellent between us, and we were always made to feel very welcome. We stayed a couple of nights towards the
precious hours and were supplied with welcome cups of tea and biscuits. Every step along the way was kindly considered for our Mum to make her comfortable, and we knew that Mum was in good hands at all times when we couldn’t be there. We will be forever thankful for the whole team’s commitment. Much love and forever thanks to the whole team.

Thank you, Julie, for these touching words. We were privileged to support mum, and you, during such an important and sensitive time. We consider our residents and their loved ones our family, and we couldn't imagine caring for you all any other way.

The staff pulled all the stops out for Aunty's special birthday this last weekend - nothing was too much trouble.
She enjoys sitting in the garden in the summer but, mostly, seems to prefer her own room as her sight and mobility are failing now.

Overall Experience  Overall Experience 5.0 out of 5

Mum has been at Offington Park for four and a half years and I have never been less than 100% satisfied with how she has been cared for throughout that time.
Despite her slight confusion (she will be 94 this year) she always appears happy when we visit; well fed and entertained, and of course, her
personal care is superb.
When she has had medical issues we have always been quickly informed, and the matter resolved with the GP and/or paramedics.
The staff are so friendly, not only to mum but also to us when we visit, and our grandchildren (Mum's great-grandchildren) when we take them in to see her.
Hopefully, she will be with us for a number of years, and I am hopeful and happy that she will spend as much of that time as possible at Offington Park.

Offington Park is a lovely care home with a friendly and welcoming atmosphere. All the staff seem to really enjoy working there and are wonderful and caring and go the extra mile to make residents feel special and at home; personalising their care to suit the individual. It’s efficiently run and nothing
is too much trouble. The food is great and the rooms are bright and airy. It’s also nice to have the option of sitting in the conservatory and the lovely gardens when visiting. My mum has advanced Alzheimer’s and had never been away from my Dad, so we were worried about how she’d take to living somewhere without him. When we dropped her off on her first day, back in November, she felt so at home by the time we left, that she was dancing down the hallway with one of the carers; so I think that said it all and we left feeling very relieved and couldn’t be more grateful to know that she is being well looked after. I highly recommend this lovely home.

My mum was in need of respite after an operation on her legs. After initially booking 2 weeks she was able to increase her time to one month. I found the staff to be extremely helpful and caring especially the first day when I was rather panicked after what initially was meant to be an op on one leg
turned into both legs. My mother was unable to walk but the staff made the whole experience so calm and easy and were organised for our arrival with a wheelchair and help to get her from the car into the home with tea and biscuits at the ready. The manager sorted out the community nurse to visit, it couldn’t have been made easier at a stressful and worrying time. My mum loved her room, the food and care that she received all making it possible for her to recover quickly and return home able to cope.

I cannot speak highly enough of the staff at Offington Park. My grandmother was treated extremely well - she was treated with respect and a huge level of kindness. She was encouraged to participate in the activities of the house, but this was done with compassion and thoughtfulness.


Her stay there

was wonderful from start to finish - the place is excellently maintained and clean, and the residents are looked after like family. She thought she was at home - and it felt like it too.


It is never easy to lose a loved one, but Offington Park is a credit to the care profession.

Current Review Score: 9.5 (9.501)

Overview of Review Score

The Review Score of 9.5 (9.501) out of 10 for Offington Park Rest Home 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 6 Reviews in the last 24 months.

  • b) The score for the number of positive Reviews is 4.6 out of 5 from 6 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 4.901 for Offington Park Rest Home is calculated as follows: ( (65 Excellents x 5) + (5 Goods x 4) + (1 Satisfactorys x 3) ) ÷ 71 Ratings = 4.901

  • 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 4.6 Points relating to the number of positive Reviews for Offington Park Rest Home is based on 6 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 = 3.6

    • 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 23 registered maximum number of service users is 4.6, which has been reached with 6 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.
