Common Area Highlights:

• Each wing features its own nurse station, treatment room, dining area, servery, kitchenette, and utility rooms

• Multiple lounges and leisure corners for socialising and hosting visitors

• A large multipurpose function room with a stage and projector for activities and performances

DCWC played a key role in bringing this project to life by providing expert quantity surveying services. Our responsibilities included preparing initial cost estimates, validating project costs for the bank funder, and conducting meticulous monthly cost monitoring throughout the post-contract phase. Additionally, we delivered detailed cost reports and contract administration services, ensuring the project stayed on track and met all expectations.

The result is a modern, thoughtfully designed aged care facility tailored to meet the diverse needs of its residents while maintaining the highest standards of quality and care.
