Eighty new jobs will be created at new home,
which will include a hair salon, shop and a pub. Building is already
underway on the £8m bespoke 75-bedroom home off Pearson Avenue, which is due to
be finished in November.
Adept Care Homes received funding for the
development from the Royal Bank of
Scotland.
Dave Lock, managing director at Adept Care Homes,
said: "With the build on track, we're starting the recruitment process to
ensure we have the right team in place to make the new house a home.
"We are extremely pleased to announce the
appointment of our experienced home manager, Claire Chorwell, and we are now
looking for carers as well as staff to form the housekeeping team."
The company runs a further seven care homes across
the UK.
The home's 75 en-suite bedrooms will be situated
within five care suites. Each suite will have its own lounge and dining facilities
together with a lifestyle kitchen.
Facilities will include large en-suite bedrooms, a
cinema, pub, corner shop and hair salon. Residents will also have access to
sensory gardens complete with an aviary.
"We are now completing the ground floor of
this exciting new project, our eighth home in the Midlands," added Mr
Lock. "We are looking forward to providing superb care for residents and a
great working environment for the care team at our first Nottinghamshire home."
Kenny Nelson, relationship director at Royal Bank
of Scotland, said: "The plans for the Chilwell care home
are very impressive and I am pleased that we have been able to support Adept
Care Homes with funding for the development.
"In addition to the high standard of care the
company are known to provide, the new facility will ensure that residents are
able to live comfortably and in a fun and stimulating environment."
Anna Kobas, 36, of Beeston, who works in a sandwich
shop in Chilwell Road, Beeston, said: "Eighty jobs is definitely good for
the area. It's good to see more employment. I'm not sure about the hairdressers
as there's already quite a lot in that area.
Isnt it great that care companies are really thinking about exciting new projects to stimulate residents?
