Peninsula Villages\u2019 new name for ageing in care development<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we commemorated ANZAC Day last month, community-owned residential aged care provider, Peninsula Villages paid tribute to a sacred moment in ANZAC history, naming its new $30 million development in honour of the battle that defined the bravery of our World War I (WWI) Diggers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Waged in 1916, \u2018The Battle of Pozieres\u2019 is perhaps the Australian Army\u2019s most sombre triumph, claiming 23,000 casualties that included 6,800 deaths in just six weeks of fighting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result of this incredible sacrifice, the name of the tiny French village has become part of Australian folklore, replicated on many street signs around the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Among them is Pozieres Avenue, Umina Beach, home of Peninsula Villages\u2019 soon to be opened 114-bed ageing-in-place development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Peninsula Villages recently finalised a competition to name the three-storey building, it seemed fitting the most popular name gave a respectful nod to tradition, \u2018Pozieres House\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pozieres House will set a standard for aged care not seen before on the Central Coast. Specialist aged, palliative and dementia care units will all be housed within separate hubs and accommodated on separate floors to ensure continuity of care between staff and the residents. The new building will replace the existing amenities at Jack Aldous House, with all rooms to include a private bathroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Peninsula Villages Chief Executive Officer, Shane Neaves said the competition to name the building canvassed the views of residents, staff and the local community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe name \u2018Pozieres House\u2019 was submitted multiple times \u2013 and it\u2019s easy to understand why,\u201d said Shane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur residents and this community have an extremely deep respect for history. They are always enthusiastic about paying tribute to Australia\u2019s past heroes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe name of our new state-of-the-art residential aged care development, Pozieres House, continues that theme, making it a stand-out choice that our Board was very proud to endorse,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Pozieres House development is not only a huge boost for aged care on the Central Coast, but also for the local economy and labour market, creating more jobs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf you combine the Pozieres House construction project and our recently approved DA for affordable housing at our Springwood site, Peninsula Villages is self-funding a $30 million investment in aged care for the Central Coast region,\u201d concluded Shane.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Under construction since late 2018, Pozieres House will soon join independent living units across three sites as well as Don Leggett House and Pam Palmer House care facilities at the award-winning Peninsula Villages. The development is scheduled for completion in late 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
