About Bryher Court Nursing Home

Bryher Court Nursing Home is in St Leonards on Sea. We care for older people who need qualified nursing alongside help with everyday living, including people whose physical disability means they need skilled support to stay comfortable and well. Nurses on duty around the clock let us manage wound and pressure care, continence and catheter needs, diabetes, pain relief and end of life care, working alongside GPs and district nursing teams. Moving and handling forms a large part of our work, and done properly it is unhurried, explained as it happens and carried out with the right equipment, which is what makes the difference between feeling supported and feeling handled. We should be plain about our position. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is requires improvement. We have been working through the points raised, particularly around record keeping, staff supervision and consistency of care planning, and we would encourage anyone considering the home to ask us about that directly rather than take our word for it. Respite stays are available alongside permanent places, including nursing support after a hospital discharge. Families across East Sussex are welcome to visit and ask us anything.
