A Wonderful Start for Our New Residents!

Our new residents have had an amazing first 10 days settling into their new home, and we couldn’t be more delighted to see them already connecting, creating, and enjoying life together.

From gentle morning walks and relaxing manicures, to lively card games and festive craft sessions. The past week has been filled with laughter, conversations and friendships.

One of the highlights was welcoming the talented Ukette's Group and a joyful St Joseph's Primary School Christmas concert a beautiful way to bring our residents and the wider community together.

We’re so proud of how quickly everyone is settling in, and we look forward to many more days filled with activities, connections, and fun.

Last night, we had the local Fire Brigade visit our home for a walk-through to familiarise themselves with the building. Our amazing Maintenance Supervisor, Millie, QLD Maintenance Manager, Simon, and Site Supervisor, Andy, were on hand to give them the tour.

A big thank you to the Fire Brigade for their time, and of course, pizza was enjoyed by all for dinner! 🍕👨‍🚒

A New Era for Aged Care

Today marks a major milestone in aged care across Australia. The new Aged Care Act 2024 and the Strengthened Aged Care Quality Standards officially come into effect from 1 November 2025.

These reforms place older Australians firmly at the centre of care — bringing a stronger focus on dignity, choice, safety, and quality in every part of aged care.

For Purpose Aged Care is proud to embrace this change. We’ve been preparing for months to ensure our homes, teams, and systems reflect the spirit and standards of the new reforms.

You’ll see these changes in how we listen, how we personalise care, and how we keep improving to deliver the best possible experience for residents and families.

Together, we’re shaping a future for aged care that is more respectful, transparent, and person-centred.
