Specialist nursing care home to create jobs in Newcastle
Around 100 jobs are being created in Newcastle this September due to the launch of Tyne Grange, Exemplar Health Care’s newest specialist nursing care home in the North East.
Following a £3.1 million investment in a high-quality refurbishment of an existing care home, Tyne Grange will open later this year. The care home is preparing to recruit nurses, support workers, administrators, kitchen and domestic team members, and other staff.
Conveniently located on Grainger Park Road, near Newcastle City Centre and with transport links and amenities nearby, Tyne Grange will support 22 adults who live with complex mental and physical health conditions, including neuro-disabilities such as Huntington’s Disease, and brain injuries.
Every bedroom will come with an en-suite wet room and there will be two one-bedroom apartments on the ground floor to support more independent living. Tyne Grange will also benefit from high quality communal spaces, including landscaped gardens, for service users and their visitors to enjoy.
The Commissioning Home Director of Exemplar Health Care’s Tyne Grange complex needs care home, Samantha Cottam, said: “I’m delighted to be opening Exemplar Health Care’s very first care home in Newcastle.
“We at Exemplar Health Care are committed to providing the best possible outcomes for our service users. We have worked with health and social care specialists in the region to ensure that this quality care home has been designed to meet the needs of those living here.
“Every one of our high-quality care homes provides supportive, welcoming, community-based services which help our service users reach their goals. Supporting complex care service users can be extremely rewarding, and Exemplar Health Care already offers stable and secure careers to more than 2,900 people. The opening of Tyne Grange is a fabulous opportunity for carers and nurses who are local to our new Newcastle care home.”
