HC-One has opened a marketing suite at its £12 million Bluebell View Care Home in Oswestry, Shropshire.

Bluebell View, which is scheduled to open in the coming months, is the latest home to be built in HC-One’s new build programme, which saw three homes open in 2021 (in York, Bingham and Telford).

The new build programme is complemented by HC-One’s wider £93 million in its refurbishment and upgrade programme to modernise and enhance the living environments and facilities of more than 200 of its existing care homes.

The three-storey home will feature residents’ lounges, relaxing reading rooms and a cosy reception and bar area, along with private gardens with courtyards, and is set to create around 90 new jobs in the area at full occupancy, with roles across care, nursing, property maintenance, housekeeping and food service.

Tracey Tomlins, managing director at HC-One, said: “We are delighted to have opened the Marketing Suite at Bluebell View Care Home which marks another key stage of the development.

“The opening of the Marketing Suite provides the public with a sneak preview of our new state-of-the-art beautiful care home and what it has to offer the local community. 

“At HC-One, we strive to be the first-choice care provider for residents and colleagues in every community we serve. As the first HC-One home in the Oswestry area, we are very much looking forward to opening the doors of Bluebell View and working with more talented colleagues in the local area to provide the kindest possible care to elderly people in the local community in our new welcoming, state-of-the-art home.”
