The Portland Suite
The Portland Suite is situated only two miles from Worksop. Nearby are both Clumber Park and Thoresby Hall, with Doncaster, Sheffield and Rotherham all within close proximity. Our capable and experienced team work towards supporting choice, change and well-being for people with both organic and functional mental health issues.
Portland Suite is managed by a Head of Unit, who is an experienced and compassionate mental health nurse. By adopting a ‘hands on’ approach to managing the staff team, she leads by example and is an advocate for best practice and evidence-based interventions. We also have a team of nurses who have a breadth of expertise ranging from mental health to learning disabilities. With support workers who are highly skilled and have been trained to recognise changes in the people that we work with, the nursing team can make balanced clinical decisions.
The Portland Suite has 23 en-suite rooms, furnished to an excellent standard and with bright and secure outside space our clients are able to enjoy fresh air all year round. Communal living space is also modern and easily accessible. .
