Following a creditors meeting on November 6, Murchison Community Care Inc. that managed the DP Jones Nursing Home and Neighbourhood House, it was voted to be wound up and to liquidate its assets.
Speaking to a meeting of around 50 creditors, the liquidator said that due to recent discussions with the government, we are now in a ‘holding pattern’ allowing all services to continue.
The closure has seen combined representations from all local members of both Federal and State Parliament including Wendy Lovell, Suzanna Sheed, Steph Ryan and Damian Drum.
Chair of the Murchison Community Action Group, Warwick Gregory said. “We are pleased that this has opened the door for the liquidator, government and the potential new providers to work together and find a sustainable new solution.”
