Falkirk care home to help plug shortage of hospital beds across Forth Valley

A Falkirk Council -run care home is set to become a "homely" setting for people who need rehabilitation following time in hospital.

The changes to Cunningham House, Grangemouth, are intended to reduce the number of people who are stuck in hospital when they don't need clinical care and give them support that will allow them to move back home eventually.

Not only will this be better for patients, it will free up vital beds in Forth Valley Royal Hospital in Larbert and in Bo'ness community hospital.
