Sundale is about to embark on a $247 million journey that “will redefine aged care” on the Sunshine Coast.

Backed by extensive independent research, consumer analysis and the recent outcomes of the Royal Commission, the implementation of Sundale’s strategic plan is expected to transform the organisation in the coming decade.

It promises to deliver unparalleled care and provide retirees and care recipients with the services they want and didn’t know they needed.

Chairperson Troy Wainwright said five Sundale sites would be completely transformed.

“Underpinning the transformation at Sundale is the consumer, be they care recipients, residents or in-home care clients,” he said.

“Irrespective of their care needs, Sundale will have a solution and provide everything from medical, respite and dementia care and support to home maintenance, cleaning, transport and a range of emotional, social and wellbeing services.
