The $30 million three-storey facility will open in late 2020 and will be the community-owned organisation’s fourth development.
All 114 rooms will be private suites with a bathroom, and the new facility will be built by veteran health and aged care construction company, Grindley Builders.
The site will include specialist aged, palliative and dementia care units – and each unit will be accommodated on separate floors to ensure continuity of care between staff and residents.
