After a comprehensive strategic review, The Salvation Army Aged Care will divest its two residential aged care services in Central West New South Wales.
This decision has been made after considerable deliberation and will impact the Moyne Aged Care Centre in Canowindra and Rosedurnate Aged Care Centre and Retirement Village in Parkes.
The Salvation Army Aged Care’s National Director, Stephen Macliver AM, said the decision to divest services in Central West NSW was very difficult given the long history of both sites.
“However, we are pleased to announce that Roshana Care Group will assume the ongoing operation of Moyne Aged Care Centre from 28 June 2024, and we will work closely with them to ensure a smooth transition for all residents, their representatives and our staff,” Mr Macliver said.
“Sadly, we were not able to secure a similar arrangement for Rosedurnate Aged Care Centre and Retirement Village and it will close in the coming months.”
“I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge and thank our valued staff at both sites for their commitment to providing our residents with the very best care,” said Mr Macliver.
Roshana Care Group CEO Rosh Jalagge said: “We are heavily focused on being a driving force in regional aged care services in NSW and thus far, we are staying true to our goals of continuing services in these areas. I’m delighted we are now able to provide our clinical care in regional NSW through Moyne Aged Care Centre.”
Moyne Aged Care Centre was built in 1959 and extended in 1990.
