A MILESTONE has been reached at Cayton View in Scarborough, which will provide residential and dementia care and create 65 jobs locally.
The 66-bed home is being built by LNT Care Developments and will be operated by Cromwell Care, part of Danforth Care.
Cayton View is Cromwell’s second care home, and follows its first, The Mayfield in Whitby, which opened last year.
The site’s construction team was joined to lay the last tile on the roof by Cromwell Care’s CEO Tobyn Dickinson, Cayton View Care Home’s general manager Leah Moon and Conservative Parliamentary Candidate Roberto Weeden-Sanz.
Tobyn said: “Cayton View Care Home is coming together nicely and I’m sure our future residents will love everything we have to offer, including the wonderful views towards Cayton and Filey.
“The home will become a key part of the local community. There is a significant shortage of care home beds in Scarborough and we look forward to helping improve this situation.”
They were given a tour of the new facility, which will include a state-of-the-art cinema, a luxurious hair and beauty salon, tea room, and a café which will serve complimentary drinks and homemade cakes and biscuits. The spacious bedrooms will each have their own ensuite wetroom, and those on the ground floor will have access to a sensory garden.
Solar panels, a ground source heat pump and battery pack will generate the home’s energy requirements.
Cayton View is scheduled to open its doors to its first residents in October.
