Do you need assistance with your application for aged care places and/or capital grants? Applications for the 2018-19 Aged Care Approvals Round (ACAR) open this Monday July 2nd. At SPH architecture + interiors, we have a specialist grant application team ready to help you.

Our architectural team can develop a concept design and prepare the proposal, as well as co-ordinate a cost plan from one of our trusted cost planning consultants.Last year the SPH architecture + interiors team successfully helped Geegeelup Village in Bridgetown Western Australia obtain $7.4m in capital funding which will enable the construction of 16 new beds and improved amenities for residents, in particular those living with dementia, their families and staff.There is only 6 weeks to apply. ACAR closes on August 10th, 2018.Applicants are advised to consider:

  • the physical location and layout of the service having regard to different safety and security requirements;
  • how accommodation will be provided (e.g. a wing for people living with dementia); and
  • the establishment of gardens and outdoor areas, including safe areas to wander.

As experts in aged care design and specifically design for dementia, SPH architecture + interiors can help address all of the necessary requirements.For more information please contact SPH architecture + interiors on (08) 9284 1888.Ask to speak with aged care expert Jamie Penn, or email jamie@sph.net.au
