A CARE home is set to undergo a £500,000 upgrade to provide modernised facilities for residents.

Broadoak Manor, on Mulcrow Close, Parr, is due to benefit from the renovation.

The £542,782 makeover has resulted from a major investment programme launched by owners HC-One.

Residents of the 120-bed, friendly care home will be able to enjoy modernised and enhanced living environments - including a full refresh of the hair salon and decoration to the home’s entrance lobby, quiet room, dining and lounge areas. In addition to a brand-new library, indoor gardening room, sensory room and activity room.

The residential, nursing and dementia care home refurbishment is part of HC-One’s £54.5m and upgrade programme.

This programme will benefit 221 HC-One homes, including Broadoak Manor, and forms part of HC-One’s mission to be the UK’s first choice care provider in the communities it serves.

As the largest care home refurbishment programme in the UK, HC-One says it is transforming its homes for the benefit of the residents and staff who live and work in them, and for the communities they serve.

HC-One added the upgrades will mean that every home will be equipped to meet the needs of an ageing population with increasingly complex care needs – including dementia care needs.

The works at Broadoak Manor are set to be completed in May 2022. No residents will be impacted by the ongoing works, the provider said.

Tamsin Ryan, HC-One’s area director said: “We are committed to fostering an environment that really feels like home, and décor and facilities are an important part of this.

"We’re really excited about the plans for Broadoak Manor Care Home and for the work to get safely underway. We look forward to seeing the end result, and when it is safe to do so, welcoming more visitors to see our new look.”
