care types
Caring for a loved one can be immensely rewarding but it can also be very tiring on the family. At Southcare Homes we provide short stays of a few days or longer, enough time to provide a short respite for a carer to “recharge the batteries”.
We offer 24-hour care for all residents. A unique personal care plan is prepared for each resident and it is reviewed regularly. All information, data and records relating to residents remains confidential and is protected. Visits to the dentist, optician and physiotherapist are arranged when required.
Palliative care, or end of life care, is care where a recovery from illness is not expected. At Southcare Homes we understand how upsetting this final stage of life can be for everyone. We offer compassionate and sensitive care.

our facilities
Our sunny home in Ringmer has 30 rooms, all with en-suite facilities. There is a ground and first floor, accessible via the passenger lift, giving residents full access to the home. Every room is fully furnished and there is the added option to personalise your space and have your own decor and furniture.
Lime Tree has two lounge areas where residents can socialise, enjoy activities and entertainment and relax. One leads into the large garden via wood decking. Guests are always welcome to spend time with their relatives here.
Lime Tree’s separate dining area is the perfect place to tuck into the range of nutritious meals and various menu options available. Menus can be easily adjusted to suit everyone’s tastes.
Relax and take in some sunshine in our large, sunny garden, with a maintained lawn accessed via timber decking.

meet the manager
Hello, I'm Tracey
Tracey Parker
Care Home Manager
Lime Tree House Residential Home
I began my career in care while I was still at school by working weekends and evenings in a local home. After many years in an alternative career, I then came back to care 17 years ago as a Health Care Assistant and worked my way up to Senior Carer, Head of Care, Deputy Manager and took my first Management role in 2015. During my years in management I have been in charge of Residential, Nursing, and Dementia homes. I have also run a private addiction Clinic. Most recently I have been working at Worthing Hospital as a Discharge Coordinator.
I am delighted to be back in a Care Home environment and especially to be part of Southcare Homes. The moment I walked into the home I felt a sense of family and a friendly caring atmosphere. My aim is to maintain and where possible improve practice, following the principles of CQC and the values of the company.
My passion is sailing and every year I take part in a charity event to race round the Isle of Wight, and most Sundays can be found sailing with my local club. I also enjoy gardening and spending time with my sons and family.
our care
Our dedicated activities coordinator creates fun, meaningful activities for our residents and organises regular entertainment evenings. Relatives and guests are also welcome to join in the fun.
We arrange monthly Oomph! trips and other outings so residents and their families can share a day out together. Our residents particularly enjoy our monthly trips to The Depot Cinema, where the movies are brought to life!
We strive to keep our home immaculate and have a maintenance worker on-hand to keep the home running smoothly
We’ll keep you on your toes with regular chiropody sessions and ensure you look your best with our regular hair stylist
our rating
All of our homes are independently assessed by the Care Quality Commission which regulates the standards of health and social care in care homes.
Our residents’ care and well-being is of primary importance to all of us at Lime Tree. We value and take to heart the feedback given to us by the CQC and have already put in much effort to improve things since the inspection in July (published in August 2019). We look forward to welcoming the CQC back to our home soon so they can see how much positive changes we’ve made.
what makes us special
Making memories at the movies.
Lime Tree benefits from a bus stop right outside the home allowing for many trips out for our residents. This includes our monthly trip to The Depot Cinema in Lewes, which brings the flicks to life and is popular among our residents.
