Care home operator, New Care, recently broke ground on a state-of-the-art new care facility in Wilmslow.

Work is progressing well on site with the foundations firmly in place and brickwork underway.  

Completion is expected by August 2022.

Within a year, the Altrincham-based company will transform the 1.14-acre site into an expertly-designed, purpose-built 63-bed care home, with a value of around £15m.

The home will be arranged over three floors, featuring fully-furnished private bedrooms with en-suite wetrooms, elegant communal lounges, stylish dining rooms, spa-assisted bathrooms, as well as a hair salon and nail bar.

And a number of advanced care services have been incorporated into the build, such as acoustic monitoring and silent call bells, which will further enhance the level of care available.

The facility will also feature landscaped gardens and grounds, as well as an outdoor terrace on the first floor.

Dawn Collett, commissioning director at New Care, said: “Work on site is going well and the foundations of the care facility are now in place.

 “The design of this care home is specific to this particular site, with the construction team working closely with New Care’s operational team to ensure the facility will work to the benefit of its residents."

Principal contractor, McGoff Construction - New Care’s sister company - is managing the build programme.
