About Nightingales (Chichester)
We are Nightingales, a home care team based in Bognor Regis and working across this part of West Sussex, including the Chichester area. We support older people who want to carry on living in their own homes. For most of the people who come to us, staying at home is not a preference so much as the whole point. Familiar surroundings, a garden somebody has kept for decades, a neighbour who knocks on the door: these are the things that keep people themselves. Our job is to provide the practical help that makes staying put safe and comfortable. Visits can include help with getting up and going to bed, washing and dressing, prompting or assisting with medication, preparing meals, light housework and shopping, and support to get out to appointments or into town. Some people need us briefly each morning, while others need several calls a day. We put real effort into sending the same carers to the same households. Older people should not have to explain themselves to a stranger each week, and a familiar carer is the person most likely to notice when something is not right. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are considering care at home for yourself or a relative, please ring us for a straightforward conversation about what would help.
