Arcare has cut the ribbon on its newest residential aged care home at Thornlands, Brisbane, which includes a commercial, medical and allied health precinct open to the public.

Comprising 92 suites, the $11 million development offers both permanent and dementia care. Each room comes with its own ensuite, with communal amenities including three courtyards, a café, a physiotherapy room, a theatre, and a hair salon.

“We are excited to extend Arcare’s services in the Thornlands community. This opportunity allows us to not only provide a quality living environment to the aged, but also increased job opportunities and support to the local community,” he said.

Arcare recently announced plans to expand into the ACT.
