A number of people have been in touch with me concerned about rumours they've heard this afternoon about residents being moved out of the Yohden Hall Nursing Home (the precise term used on social media apparently).
I hadn't been made aware of any details so I contacted the director of adult social care at Durham County Council to ask if they had any information that I could pass on to residents and the wider community.
The director has checked with the commissioning team in county hall and they have confirmed that the only information they have is that 5 residents are being relocated to Field View at the same complex. I've reproduced below the information I received this afternoon:
Hello Rob
The information we have is that they want to move 5 people to their other home in Blackhall at Field View. We have been in touch with the families of the 5 people [affected].
We don’t know of any further plans to move more people.
Regards
Hopefully that will clarify the issues raised and the rumours circulating in the community and on social media. However, I've asked the service to keep me in touch in the event their are any developments.
