Exemplar Health Care, a leading provider of specialist nursing care for adults living with complex and high acuity needs, has announced a £2.3m investment in the refurbishment of Potters Green care home in Mexborough.

Due to open in Autumn 2022, the refurbished facility will be Exemplar Health Care’s tenth home in South Yorkshire.

With a capacity of 20 adults, the home will specialise in supporting people living with dementia, acquired brain injury, complex mental health conditions, and physical disabilities.

To provide a safe and comfortable environment, the home will feature high-quality, spacious communal spaces and landscaped gardens, sensory and therapy rooms, and will have an in-house team of nursing specialists and therapists team so that adults living with complex needs can access holistic care in a community-based setting.

It has always been our goal to provide high-quality, personal care to those in need, and our latest renovation in Mexborough is part of this

Pacy and Wheatley Construction is leading the redevelopment project and its managing director, Anthony Wheatley, said: “We are pleased to announce that, through collaborative working, planning permission for a new care home in Mexborough has now been granted.

“Potters Green will be undergoing a £2.3m refurbishment and is the fifth care home we have worked on alongside Exemplar Health Care.

“We look forward to completing the project in autumn of this year.”

Charlotte Lloyd, developments director at Exemplar Health Care, added: “It has always been our goal to provide high-quality, personal care to those in need, and our latest renovation in Mexborough is part of this.

“Potters Green will provide person-centred care to help maximise the independence of its residents, empower them to live their life to the fullest, and build on life skills.

“We hope that Potters Green will become part of the local community and be seen as a safe and welcoming home for anyone in the local area in need of assistance and specialist care.”
