Odyssey Private Aged Care is a privately held aged care development company that provides independent living units for seniors to downsize, inclusive of care, while providing premium aged care services. Odyssey sought a proactive care solution that provided an advanced Ageing in Place solution for its residents. The solution needed to be discreet and deliver privacy while providing a level of transparency to the care teams onsite, in addition to connecting family members remotely giving peace of mind that their loved ones were being proactively cared for.
CEO of Odyssey, Phil Usher, said, “After a very competitive and exhaustive technology review, we identified Homestay’s IoT assistive care solution as the most appropriate for our needs. Their overall product and service offering delivers the discreteness and level of service our clients expect throughout our properties, and we’re excited to be working with the Homestay team on the delivery of their premium technology suite.”
HSC Managing Director, Graham Russell, commented, “Phil Usher, CEO of Odyssey, is a pioneer of change in the Aged Care industry, with significant experienced in the sector. Working with Phil and the Odyssey team during the design of the Robina project was inspiring. They know the problems and challenges that Odyssey faces and could see the real value that our Assistive technology would provide for their residents to increase their independence and safety, while providing an enhanced lifestyle. Odyssey also recognized the operational efficiencies for the organisation, which would flow onto lower costs for their clients.”
HomeStay has entered into a design and construct contract with J. Hutchinson Pty Ltd (“ Hutchinson Builders” ) for the delivery of assistive technology under the project, with further details are set out in Appendix A. Hutchinson Builders are a Tier 1 construction Company headquartered in Queensland and is the main contractor for the construction of the site. Construction of the apartments is scheduled for completion in June 2020. HomeStay has been working closely with both the developer and builder on the project, with delivery of the technology to commence immediately.
