Ozcare welcomes St Vincent’s Aged Care Douglas, Townsville

St Vincents Douglas Thumb

We are pleased to announce the transfer of St Vincent’s Aged Care Douglas to Ozcare, effective 18 February 2025.

Transfer of St Vincent’s Care Douglas to Ozcare 

In line with our mission and values, Ozcare is committed to delivering high quality services in regional and rural areas of Queensland.  We are therefore pleased to announce that from 18 February 2025 Ozcare is the new owner and operator of St Vincent’s Aged Care Douglas, located in Townsville.

Like Ozcare, St Vincent’s Care is a not-for-profit organisation with values highly aligned to our own, and we are honoured to be entrusted with the ongoing operation of their Douglas Aged Care facility.

Built in 2019, St Vincent’s Aged Care Douglas is a relatively new facility with a contemporary design and 140 single ensuited rooms distributed over four floors.  Each floor has its own dining along with numerous lounges and rooms for activities. The top floor features a large rooftop terrace with gardens, a multi-purpose function room, café and hairdressing salon.

The facility also features state-of-the-art lifestyle amenities tailored to ensure residents can live as independently as they choose. These include an activity centre, a fully equipped on-site gym, expansive courtyards, a day therapy centre, and an on-site chapel.

With the benefit of Ozcare’s existing presence in Townsville, we are well-placed to build on the great work established by St Vincent’s Care Douglas.

Ozcare’s Villa Vincent Aged Care facility is less than 10 minutes’ drive from Douglas as is Ozcare’s Community Care branch, providing a great opportunity for us to collaborate and share resources.

We look forward to welcoming the residents, families and staff of St Vincent’s Care Douglas to Ozcare and are excited about our future together.

The entire Ozcare team extends a very warm welcome to our new colleagues at St Vincent’s Care and we look forward to supporting them as they transition into the Ozcare family.
