“The Meinhardt team was both responsive and creative, providing cost effective solutions in a timely manner. They showed an understanding and empathy for the key issues, and potential disruptions associated with such projects, where often it was necessary for work to be undertaken in close proximity to residents.

A mixture of new build projects and upgrades of existing facilities providing nearly 600 beds. Total capital cost of ~$100m. This included a 140 bed facility in Hackham and a 164 bed facility in Smithfield in South Australia.

The project for Marten Residential Care Facility meanwhile, which comprised a new 46 bed extension and the upgrade of the existing facility, formed the model for future ECH projects under their 5 year capital works program.
