A Saltburn care home previously criticised for food hygiene issues is now under new ownership. Four Seasons Care Home, located off Marske Road, has been re-registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) as Oaklands Manor Nursing Home.
Oaklands Manor Care Home Limited, the new owner, plans to upgrade the facility, which specialises in dementia care. The existing manager will stay on to provide continuity for staff. Redcar and Cleveland Council’s commissioning services are supporting the transition.
Under its previous operator, Key Healthcare Limited, the home was flagged for major food safety improvements in 2023. Inspectors found improper food storage, dirty equipment, and damaged kitchenware that could not be properly cleaned. Key Healthcare stated at the time that it had addressed all concerns.
The CQC last inspected the home in November 2022, rating it as ‘requires improvement’ overall but ‘good’ for caring. The regulator notes that past ratings apply only to the previous operator and that follow-up inspections will be conducted under the new ownership.
