Fewer aged people over there as well ?
But if smaller homes equate to more personalised care it seems NZ is in front?
(....I don’t know if that statistic does equate to more personalised care although so far there is no Royal Commission over there.)
And I also read BUPA was the largest operator Double Down, but the link below says Ryman, not BUPA, is the largest (listed) operator in NZ....
(I wish I could find that comment!)
Largest or not, Ryman would be a feather in the Painchek cap with 37? villages currently and plans for 20 more ,and specialised dementia care included in the range of offerings.... and expansion underway in Australia too according to this report from last Sunday ;
https://theurbandeveloper.com/articles/ryman-healthcare-melbourne “Ryman Unveils $200m Aged Care Development Plans
New Zealand's largest retirement village operator Ryman Healthcare has unveiled plans for a $180 million “comprehensive aged care and retirement village” at Highett in Melbourne's south-east.
The acquisition is the company's eleventh in the state of Victoria for the NZ-listed company, securing five development approvals including Weary Dunlop at Wheelers Hill and Nellie Melba .”....... etc
