The Labour party leaked a document at the weekend which showed that 14 of the 97 care homes previously managed by Southern Cross in Scotland did not have a manager as of July 14. The leaked Southern Cross report is an update on the status of its Scottish Southern Cross care homes.
I suspect that even before Southern Cross got into trouble that a number of its care homes did not have a manger in place.
Southern Cross wound up its operations last month after being unable to pay its bills to landlords who own its care homes. Southern Cross handed all of its 750 homes it managed back to the landlords including those in Scotland.
