Gloucestershire care home closure challenge rejected

Four council care homes in Gloucestershire are set to shut in the autumn after an attempt to challenge the closures was rejected.

Gloucestershire County Council's Liberal Democrat group said it had serious questions over the processes taken ahead of the closure decision involving Orchard House in Bishops Cleeve, Westbury Court in Westbury, Bohanam House in Gloucester and The Elms in Stonehouse.The council said there was falling demand for places at venues like Bohanam House in Gloucester

"The majority of the committee were not convinced by the argument that the decision-making process hadn't been followed and therefore dismissed the 'call in'," said committee chairman Stephan Fifield.Liberal Democrat spokesperson for adult social care, Jeremy Hilton, said the group still believed closing the homes was the "wrong decision".
