About
Grasmere Nursing Home is a small home in Worthing, West Sussex, with 20 registered beds, providing permanent and respite nursing care. Its size allows staff to focus on each resident's needs, and residents are supported to stay independent and make their own choices. The home stands on a tree-lined residential street near shops, public transport and the seafront, with parking on site.
The building retains original Edwardian features, and the landscaped garden is used for relaxation in summer, while a heated patio lets residents sit outside in winter. Staff are available day and night, and all care staff hold at least an NVQ Level 2 qualification. The Care Quality Commission rated the home Requires Improvement overall in its 2025 report, grading Safe and Well-led as Requires Improvement and Effective, Caring and Responsive as Good.
