Exemplar Health Care Opens New Home in Burnley
Nursing care provider Exemplar Health Care, is celebrating the opening of its brand-new care home.
Wytham Lodge supports adults living with complex mental health needs, dementia, neuro-disabilities and physical disabilities.
The home has 34 bedrooms with ensuite wet rooms, split across three communities. With this small group living model, Exemplar Health Care has found it can provide a supportive environment that is more responsive to people’s needs. The home also features communal dining and living spaces, an activities hub, sensory bathrooms, and a therapy room.
Having opened sixteen homes since 2023, Exemplar Health Care now employs more than 5,500 people and supports over 1,000 individuals. Earlier this year, the provider confirmed these openings formed part of an ambitious growth plan to bring much needed complex nursing care services to more locations across England.
Shannon O’Dea, Clinical Nurse Manager at Wytham Lodge said: “We’re overjoyed to be opening this new home for the benefit of the local community. Our hardworking team is devoted to fostering an atmosphere that is welcoming, inclusive, and focused on improving each and every day for the individuals we assist.”
Lindsay Holcroft, Commissioning Manager at Exemplar Health Care said: “Our newest home is a testament to our dedication to offering superior nursing care to adults with complex needs. I’m confident that Shannon and the team will make a significant and long-lasting difference to the lives of those we support here. The home will make it possible for people from the region who require complex care to live and receive complex nursing care closer to their friends and family.”
