Welcome to Rectory House

Rectory House Nursing Home is situated in the small and friendly village of Sompting in North Worthing, set between the popular local coastline and the South Downs. We are proud to have been regional finalist winners in the Great British Care Awards 2023, for the Social Care Nurse Award.

The residents at Rectory House have plenty of opportunities to access the community and to participate in local groups and events. We take pride in our community links and often have groups from the community to use our big lounge for events and celebrations, in which the residents join in.

The well-being of our residents is at the core of everything we do at Rectory House. With us, they feel a sense of community and support, and they are involved in all activities and events. On a normal day, a resident might enjoy time in the communal areas joining the Breakfast Club, or playing board games and cards with other residents and the team, as well as participating in reminiscing and music therapy.

What does care from the heart mean to the team at Rectory House?
“Fundamentally, we believe that care from the heart is about enabling and providing high-quality care that is tailored to each individual. It is important to us that our residents and loved ones have a sense of consistency and assurance in the standard of care they receive. This is grounded in our resident centric approach, recognising the resident as an individual and developing a relationship with them that allows us to develop the care provided based on their experiences and perspectives. We are people looking after people; caring for them, and driving and inspiring them to influence high standards of care. Our approach is simple: the promotion of the wellbeing of our residents, their relatives, and our colleagues.”

I have been so impressed with the care and compassion shown towards my father during a very difficult time for our family. We found the experience of accessing appropriate nursing care for Dad emotionally stressful and the staff (management and care staff alike) were so helpful and supportive during the whole process.
I strongly feel that the staff at Rectory House are doing the best for my father and putting him at the centre of decision- making, and that has helped him, my mum and the wider family.
Thank you to everyone there.

Meet the Manager

Serah is our home manager at Rectory House Nursing Home – here’s a little bit more about her role at the home in her own words:

“I lead my professional Care Team in delivering the highest level of care and support for our residents. My commitment to professional development has equipped me well for my role here, where I work hard to ensure that those in my care lead happy and fulfilling lives, whilst maintaining choice over the care and support they receive.

I believe in maintaining strong relationships with residents and their relatives, and understand the important contribution that these relationships make to the successful running of a care home.

I feel that the Aria Care philosophy matches up well with my own beliefs on care provision and I am committed to ensuring that all our residents continue to receive the high levels of care and protection they deserve.”
