Home visits and online appointments

Adult speech therapy across Worthing and West Sussex

Ember is based in Goring-by-Sea, Worthing and provides specialist home visits across a broad part of West Sussex, with online appointments where clinically appropriate.

01

Based in Goring-by-Sea

Local adult neurological speech and language therapy centred on Worthing.

02

A broad home-visit area

Coverage extends approximately west to Chichester, north to Horsham and east to Saltdean.

03

Clear before booking

Availability and any travel cost are confirmed before you commit to an appointment.

01

Areas covered for home visits

The core service area includes Worthing, Goring-by-Sea and nearby coastal and inland communities. Home visits may also be available around Ferring, East Preston, Rustington, Littlehampton, Arundel, Shoreham-by-Sea, Steyning and Storrington.

The wider area extends approximately towards Chichester and Bognor Regis in the west, Horsham to the north, and Brighton and Saltdean to the east. Journey time, clinical need and appointment availability all affect what is practical, so each postcode is checked individually.

02

Why therapy at home can be useful

A familiar environment can reduce the pressure of travelling to a clinic and make it easier to involve the people who support you. It also lets therapy connect directly to real conversations, routines, communication tools and mealtimes.

Home is not automatically the right setting for every assessment. Nessa will consider privacy, clinical safety, equipment and whether another location or service is better suited to the question that needs answering.

03

Online appointments

Online support may work well for some communication goals, reviews, family or carer coaching and professional liaison. It can also make follow-up easier when travel is difficult.

Not every assessment can be completed safely or accurately online, particularly some swallowing assessments. Ember will recommend online work only when it is clinically appropriate and genuinely useful.

04

Checking your postcode

Use the postcode checker on the contact form for an immediate guide. It is not a booking promise: Nessa will confirm the current home-visit availability, likely journey and any travel fee personally before an appointment is arranged.

If your postcode falls outside the usual area, you can still enquire. An online appointment, professional conversation or better-placed local service may be the most helpful next step.

Useful answers

Questions are part of the process.

Is every West Sussex postcode covered?

Not automatically. The area is broad, but availability depends on journey time, clinical need and the appointment diary. Your postcode and any travel fee are confirmed before booking.

Do you visit care homes?

Enquiries from residents, families and care teams are welcome. Nessa will discuss consent, the purpose of the visit and any information needed from the care team.

What happens if I am outside the area?

You can still ask. Online support may be possible, or Ember may be able to suggest that a more local service would be a better fit.
