Hall and Prior, founded by Michael Hall and Graeme Prior, in 1992, has development approval for the first Aboriginal aged care facility in the Perth metropolitan area.

The $89 million Sister Kate’s Health and Aged Care Facility, in Queens Park, 11km from the CBD, will be developed by Hall & Prior Health & Aged Care Group in partnership with Sister Kate’s Children 1934–1953 Aboriginal Corporation.

“This project is one of Western Australia’s most significant Aboriginal health and aged care developments and reflects Hall & Prior’s long-standing commitment to providing culturally responsive care,” said Hall & Prior CEO Graeme Prior AM.

The new facility will be built alongside existing seniors’ units owned by Sister Kate’s, with the design by Kerry Hill Architects to include:

• The ground floor as the main hub with 70 rooms and 100 beds, living and dining facilities, wellness centre and hydrotherapy pool;
• An upper floor which will include four dialysis treatment beds, as well staff and training facilities; and
• The integration of the heritage-listed chapel which will be an active part of the site.

Construction is expected to commence in the first half of 2026, with a completion target of 2028.
