CaSPA Care is the merger of two community based organisations, Claremont Home (Albert Park) and SouthPort Nursing Home (Port Melbourne). Claremont has provided residential care services in the local area for over 50 years and SouthPort 30 years. The committees of management of both organisations were conscious that to provide care in an era of increasing frailty of residents and more robust certification and accreditation standards, merging the two organisations would enable them to continue to provide a quality services on a larger scale to current and future residents. The two committees of management have been merged to form the CaSPA Care Board which has oversight of the merger of the two organisations. Work is progressing on the design for the new 146-bed facility on the Raglan Street, South Melbourne, site which will bring together residents from both facilities and will provide a quality service for people from the local community now and into the future.
