About Drumconner
Drumconner Lancing is a nursing home in Lancing, West Sussex. We care for older people who need nursing support and for people living with a physical disability, and we welcome people for respite stays as well as for longer term care. Having qualified nurses on site means health needs are met here, without anybody having to move on because their condition has changed. It also means changes are noticed early, which usually spares someone a hospital admission. That side of things should feel unremarkable, so the rest of the day can belong to the person living it. We ask each person how they like to live and we take the answers seriously. Hours, meals, company, privacy, how much help is wanted and how much is not. For someone with a physical disability, that includes being asked before being assisted and never being hurried through personal care. Small courtesies of that kind are what separate a home from an institution. Families and friends are part of life here. Come when it suits you, be as involved as you would like to be, and tell us honestly if something is not right. We would far rather hear it early. Our most recent overall rating from the Care Quality Commission is good. If you are considering nursing care in Lancing or elsewhere in West Sussex, please arrange to visit and see how it feels.
