Capecare Dunsborough is the first residential care facility for the rapidly-growing Dunsborough community. Innovative design and technology will help to create a vibrant community hub, in harmony with the natural environment, connecting village residents with the wider Dunsborough community and enabling residents to live well as they age.
The 80-bed residential care facility will cater for people with high physical needs in a dementia-enabling environment. 21 Independent Living Apartments are also included in the development, allowing residents to live as independently as they can, with the knowledge that supporting resources are readily available as required. Capecare Dunsborough also incorporates a new base for the Dunsborough Branch of the Country Women’s Association.
Located within easy walking distance to the town centre, shops, cafés, medical facilities, Country Club and Geographe Bay, Capecare Dunsborough is nestled in a natural environment that will maximise the availability of outdoor space and overlook the adjacent nature reserve.
Capecare Dunsborough facilities include meeting rooms for residents, a theatre room, hairdresser/beautician, allied health (occupational therapy, podiatry and physiotherapy) a library/technology hub, a small coffee shop, playground/exercise area and an outdoor BBQ area.
This project was awarded the Bankwest Best Regional Project and Best Aged Care Building $20-$50M at the Master Builders-Bankwest South West Building Excellence Awards 2022.
