About Bay House Care
Bay House Care is a nursing home in Bexhill on Sea. We provide nursing care for older people and we offer respite stays alongside permanent places. People usually come to us at a point of change, often after a hospital stay or when managing at home has stopped being realistic. That is an unsettling time, and much of our work in the first weeks is about helping somebody feel steady again: sleeping properly, eating again, having their own belongings around them and getting their medication right. Nurses are on duty at every hour, so medication, skin care, nutrition, pain and mobility are managed here, and a change in somebody's condition is picked up by people who know how they usually are. Families often tell us the biggest relief is no longer being the ones responsible for noticing everything. We also work at the ordinary parts of the day. People are helped to be up and dressed if that is what they want, to eat food they actually like, to get outside and to see whoever they want to see. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. Please come and visit if you are considering nursing care locally.
