The highly impressive initial response by the sector to the news the widely respected aged care benchmarking accountant is providing an independent survey and report for the advocacy of the retirement living sector is gaining further momentum.
StewartBrown Partner Stuart Hutcheon (pictured below) will provide information to members at the Aged & Community Care Providers Association (ACCPA)’s Retirement Living and Seniors Housing National Forum (online version) tomorrow afternoon.
“The National Forum is an ACCPA member only event which we hold bi-monthly so that all our members are updated and included on topics/happenings across the country,” said Mark Prosser, ACCPA’s Director Retirement Living & Seniors Housing.
David Gallery, Audit Director at StewartBrown said 58 retirement living operators have made contact already.
This is a significant new initiative in that StewartBrown is the undisputed leader in independent and respected research and analysis in the aged care sector. Its benchmarking and financial fact finding is accepted by all levels of government and the media.
StewartBrown’s existing client base already represents over 900 retirement villages and nine of the largest 16 operators.
David said it has a “good response” from operators from outside of its portfolio.
An independent portrait of the business of retirement living is of paramount importance as the sector evolves.
Supporting advocacy to Government, media, consumer groups and funders, StewartBrown will publish reports and provide analysis and commentary, like their respected aged care work.
Available to all providers of land lease and retirement village operators, the survey collection will start from this month with reporting and analysis to be released in March 2025.
Participants also receive access to the StewartBrown Professional Analyst Team, individualised Board and Executive presentations about the survey results, and privileged access to customed reporting and business intelligence on their secure Retirement Living Survey portal.
