Southern Cross Care Homes – Astoria Park, Peterborough

Readers will be aware of the national situation with Southern Cross Care Homes which is in the process of transferring its homes to alternative providers due to the company’s financial position.

There is one Southern Cross home in Peterborough, Astoria Park and readers will be pleased to know that on the 30 September a safe and smooth transfer of the management of the home was made to local care provider, Park Vista.

The company runs several local homes and has received external awards for the quality of its services.

The Care Quality Commission registered the new provider ahead of the transfer and NHS Peterborough will continue to contract with the home. All residents and families have been informed of the change. NHS Peterborough will carry out an early monitoring visit of the home under its new management.
