INVESTMENT
RESIDENTIAL AGED CARE FACILITY
WITH PRIVATE ENSUITES
What we're building
The project will deliver:
- a new residential aged care facility
- single rooms with private ensuites
- flexible shared spaces and common areas
- features to support a range of complex care needs and mobility, including those living with dementia.
Benefits
The new Maffra aged care facility aims to achieve the following benefits:
Specialist care
The new residential aged care facility will improve access to high quality facilities and care. It will meet a range of complex needs so residents can age in place as their health needs increase.
A home-like environment
Residents will have improved privacy and independence with single rooms and ensuites. Flexible shared spaces within the design will give residents options – from socialising with other residents, visitors and family members to simply sitting on their own.
Safe living and working conditions
The new facility will benefit both staff and residents with better and safer living and working conditions.
Closer to home
Greater access to high-quality care in Maffra means older people won’t have to move away to access care. Residents will be close to their support networks and will be able to maintain family and community connections.
New construction jobs
At the peak of construction, the redevelopment is expected to create and sustain more than 200 construction industry jobs.
