WHO WILL CARE FOR THEM?

RESIDENTS and staff at Seabank Care Home in Saltcoats received a bitter Christmas blow this week - after it was ruled that the recently-built facility WILL be affected by parent company the Argus Care Group going into administration.
Now North Ayrshire Council have stepped in to ensure that the frail and vulnerable elderly residents are safe over Christmas, while a longer term solution is sought by administrators KPMG.
Argus assured the community just a month ago that state-of-the-art facility Seabank had a secure future, as the financial problems leading to the auditors being brought in were affecting a separate part of their company.
These hopes were dashed last week.
