Exemplar Health Care launches a new £5m care home in Liverpool

 

A new £5m care home or adults living with complex and high acuity needs has opened in Liverpool, creating 100 jobs.

Exemplar Health Care, a provider of specialist nursing care for adults, has marked the official opening of Roseside in Netherley. Former Lord Mayor of Liverpool, Frank Prendergast and entertainer Pauline Daniels attended the launch.

Roseside will specialise in supporting adults living with complex mental health needs and neuro-disabilities. These include Huntington’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. They would otherwise face prolonged stays in hospital, away from their family and friends.

Following the investment, the home is now split into four, eight-bed communities – as small group living provides a more homely, supportive, and responsive care environment – and each of the 32 bedrooms has its own ensuite wet room. 

The home also features communal dining and living spaces, an activities hub, sensory bathrooms and a large accessible garden for residents and visitors to enjoy.

It will offer a multi-disciplinary healthcare team. The home has already recruited a mix of care, nursing and therapeutic specialists – with recruitment remaining underway for several roles, including an in-home occupational therapist and a physiotherapist.

Liz Butterworth, home manager at Roseside, said: “Our aim is to make every day better for our residents by providing person-centred care that focuses on maximising independence, building everyday living skills, and empowering people to live as fulfilled lives as possible.

“We are proud to have an exceptional team of colleagues who share a deep passion for providing top-notch care and fostering a welcoming and nurturing atmosphere at Roseside.

“Our priority is to collaborate with local health and social care professionals, our valued residents, their families, and the broader community.”

Exemplar is a £120m-turnover business based in Rotherham and operates more than 30 care homes for adults across the UK.

Samantha Sim, commissioning manager at Exemplar, added: “This exciting addition represents our unwavering commitment to expanding our services across England and ensuring that more individuals have access to specialised nursing care right within their own community.”
