A Harrogate dementia care provider is celebrating its 10th anniversary.
Vida Healthcare was set up in 2013 and now employs 550 staff and cares for 230 residents across its care homes.
The company currently has homes in Starbeck, Pannal and Harlow Carr.
As part of the milestone, Vida held an awards ceremony and tea party for its staff.
James Rycroft, managing director of Vida Healthcare, said:
“My father and I established Vida to transform the care available to people living with dementia. It was clear at the time that many traditional residential care homes simply didn’t have the resources or expertise to fully support their residents who were living with dementia.
“We set about challenging perceptions and practices in dementia care, with an emphasis on reducing the use of medications and instead providing bespoke environments and alternative therapies. I’m extremely proud of how far Vida has come since we opened the doors to our first care home back in 2013."
