Intra Tec Case Study – New Direction care

Micro-town gives people with cognitive impairment, dementia independence and social engagement

A small community in Bellmere, just north of Brisbane, is turning the traditional aged care model on its head, providing a sense of independence, engagement and normalcy to its 120 residents, many of whom live with cognitive impairment such as dementia.

For the residents at NewDirection Care, as well as for Natasha Chadwick and her staff, 2020 proved to be one the most challenging years they have ever experienced. The COVID-19 pandemic, which so devastated aged care communities in other states, also brought restrictions and difficulties to their aged care facility based in Bellmere, Queensland.
