At Upper Mead Care Home in Henfield, care is about so much more than meeting needs. It is about creating a genuine sense of belonging, warmth and family. From the moment you step through the front door, there is a feeling that is difficult to describe but impossible to miss.
Visitors are welcomed with a smile, conversations happen naturally, and there is always time for a cup of tea, a biscuit and a friendly chat.
Upper Mead provides high-quality nursing, residential, dementia, palliative and respite care for older people, but what truly sets the home apart is its authenticity. Residents are not simply cared for; they are known, valued and treated as individuals. Relationships matter and every member of the team is committed to ensuring that residents feel comfortable, respected and truly at home.
This commitment to a family atmosphere is reflected in the leadership of Home Manager Lynn Lovett, who has been part of the Upper Mead team for more than 30 years.
"Upper Mead has always been about people," said Lynn. "We are privileged to be part of our residents' lives and we never lose sight of that. We want everyone who lives here, and everyone who visits, to feel the warmth, kindness and sense of community that makes Upper Mead so special."
Alongside exceptional care, Upper Mead places a strong emphasis on wellbeing, helping residents to live fulfilled, active and enjoyable lives. A standout feature is the home's hydrotherapy pool, offering residents unique opportunities to relax, exercise and maintain mobility in a safe and supportive environment. Access to the home's dedicated physiotherapy team is also included, ensuring residents benefit from personalised support to promote movement, comfort and independence.
Physical wellbeing is further enhanced through sector-leading Burn's Gym fitness and movement sessions. Designed to be accessible and enjoyable for all abilities, these innovative programmes encourage residents to stay active, build confidence and enjoy the many benefits that movement can bring.
Upper Mead also embraces the latest dementia technology through Ayla, providing cutting-edge support that enhances engagement, communication and quality of life for residents living with dementia. By combining innovative technology with compassionate, person-centred care, the home creates meaningful opportunities for connection and wellbeing.
Together, they create a holistic approach that nurtures mind, body and spirit. It is an approach built on kindness, dignity and genuine human connection.
At Upper Mead, residents receive outstanding care. More importantly, they become part of a warm, welcoming community where they are valued, supported and encouraged to thrive every day.
