Project Description

The construction of the new Basin View Facility will allow the RFBI to provide aged care for 50 residents in a residential environment in the Shoalhaven area of the NSW South Coast.

The facility will have four wings. Two each of 15 beds, and two each of 10 beds as the dementia specific area.

The key design issue was to arrange bedrooms in wings so that the corridors focus on the main activity space, and particularly on the kitchen, which acts as the staff base.

The two dementia wings open onto a secure terrace and garden area and the two front wings open to large terraces.

Construction commenced in June 2003
