About Ersham House Nursing Home
Here at Ersham House Nursing Home, we provide nursing and residential care for adults in the heart of Hailsham, East Sussex. We support a wide range of needs under one roof, including dementia care, mental health support, care for those living with physical disabilities, and support for people with visual or hearing impairments. We also welcome younger adults and offer respite care for those who need a short break from their usual arrangements. We know that choosing a nursing home is one of the most significant decisions a family can make, and we do not take that responsibility lightly. Our team works hard to understand each resident as an individual, getting to know their history, their preferences, and what matters most to them in daily life. Care plans are built around the person, not the other way around. Our most recent CQC rating reflects that there are areas where we need to do better, and we are honest about that. We have been working through a clear programme of improvements and are committed to making the changes needed to raise the standard of care we provide. We believe residents and families deserve straightforwardness, and we would rather be open about where we are than paint a picture that does not reflect reality. Day to day, we aim to create an environment that feels settled and familiar, where residents are treated with respect and where staff take the time to listen. Whether someone is with us for a short stay or has made Ersham House their permanent home, we want them to feel genuinely looked after. If you would like to find out more or arrange a visit, we would be very happy to hear from you. We welcome families to come and see us for themselves.
