One of the UK’s longest continuously operating care homes, Balmanno House in the west end of Glasgow, has filed for administration.
Balmanno House, which can trace its roots as a care home back more than 200 years and was a registered charity, reported "severe and unsustainable" cash flow stemming from the rising costs of running a major care facility.
These include staff shortages, costs of sourcing agency staff, rising food and energy bills, compliance costs and falling occupancy levels.
