About Elizabeth House
We are Elizabeth House, a residential care home in Bognor Regis, West Sussex. We provide a home for older people and younger adults, including those living with dementia, and we also take respite stays. Residential care at its best means helping with the things that have become difficult and leaving everything else in the hands of the person themselves. Washing and dressing, meals, medication, getting about safely, and the ordinary company that makes a day worth getting up for. Anything beyond our registration we arrange with district nurses and GPs rather than trying to cover it ourselves. Dementia shapes much of our day. Knowing who somebody has been tells us more than any list of symptoms does. A resident who spent forty years working to a particular rhythm or raising a family nearby still carries that with them, and a conversation that connects with it can turn an afternoon around. Respite guests are assessed and welcomed as fully as anyone living here permanently, whether they are recovering from illness or giving a family carer a break. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good.
