Our Plans for the Future
The St Agnes’ Care & Lifestyle Masterplan
St Agnes’ Catholic Parish has lodged Development Applications (DAs) for the development of the Emmaus site on Colonel Barney Drive, Port Macquarie.
St Agnes’ Care & Lifestyle Masterplan
The longest-serving and largest provider of aged care in the region, St Agnes’ Care & Lifestyle is committed to addressing the changing needs of community as it ages. Our plan to provide these services for the next 20 years and beyond is called the St Agnes’ Care & Lifestyle Masterplan.
The Masterplan provides a strategy for the investment in the future of local aged care which will include new construction of, and upgrading of existing services.
The Parish lodged DAs under the name ‘St Agnes’ Care & Lifestyle’ with Port Macquarie-Hastings Council to develop the vacant land next to Emmaus on Colonel Barney Drive to build a specially dedicated service to look after those with dementia and related conditions. Residents will live in small groups in the style of a village community offering a service that will be the first of its kind on the NSW Mid-North Coast and in the broader NSW regional area. This will begin an exciting new era for the Parish as a leading and innovative provider of care to the local community.

Masterplan update
All necessary DAs have been approved and the Parish is now working on developing details designs for final estimating of capital costs.
Following completion of the estimating and detail design phase the Parish will review its financial modelling with the view to submit approval documentation to the St Agnes’ Care & Lifestyle Board by the end of December 2020.
The impact of COVID-19 has had a profound impact on society and operation of the Parish and will be needed to be taken into consideration when considering the investment in developing the Emmaus site. Whilst the Parish is hopeful that the Emmaus site development will be able to proceed, the decision of the Board will need to take into all parameters that may affect the project.
