As the Lynn of Lorne Care Home in Benderloch withdraws nursing care due to a staff shortage, relatives fear some residents may be moved from the area.
The private care home, which looks aTher up to 62 residents, is run by McKenzie Care, which gave 13 weeks’ notice on April 30 to end its contract with Argyll and Bute’s Health and Social Care Partnership (HSCP).
‘The care home is undergoing a registration change from nursing care to enhanced residential care, which will have an impact on the care provision for existing and future residents’, the HSCP’s locality manager told Argyll and Bute Council’s Oban, Lorn and the Isles Community Planning Group in May.
