New names for care homes
Nine county council care homes will have new names when they transfer to Leicestershire County Care Ltd in the next few weeks.
The transfer will save the council 1 million per year, while retaining places for existing residents, safeguarding the jobs of existing staff and enabling improvements such as en-suite facilities.
The homes will transfer as soon as registration with the Care Quality Commission is completed.
David Sprason, Cabinet member for Adults and Communities, said: Im delighted that Leicestershire County Care Ltd will invest considerable sums to ensure high quality care and it has pledged to maintain employment.
