A Message from Our Home Manager
With nearly 30 years of dedication to South Coast Nursing Homes, including 19 years as the Registered Manager right here at Fernbank, Donna Harwood’s long-standing leadership has made the home a true cornerstone of high-quality care in Worthing. Here, Donna shares what makes the Fernbank family so uniquely special:
“Welcome to Fernbank. When families visit us, they often ask me what sets Fernbank apart from other care homes in Worthing. My answer is always simple: our exceptional support and respect for our residents who have trusted us with their care, driven by our proven track record and our people. I am incredibly proud that we have consistently maintained our ‘Good’ CQC rating, backed by an array of 5-star reviews on carehome.co.uk from our residents and their loved ones.
To me, exceptional care relies entirely on consistency. That is why I am delighted to say that we have not used a single hour of agency care staff in the last 24 months.
We also look to the future. If your loved one’s care needs change over time, you don’t have to worry about the unknown. Through our close-knit network, we can seamlessly refer to our sister homes, ensuring they continue to receive the exact same high standard of care you expect from us, without the stress of starting over.
Finally, life at Fernbank is full of joy. We are just a short walk from Worthing town centre, the seafront, and our local theatres. We have a wonderfully active relationship with our sister homes, Berkeley Lodge and The Poets, where our residents are always invited to join in on activities and events. It is a vibrant community, and we cannot wait to welcome you into it.”
