2. Aged Care Interiors
Capability Statement
Mission
To provide the highest quality of Service and Design on every job and to do this from concept
through to installation.
Summary
Aged Care Interiors is owned and run by Elaine McNeill since 1990. It was at that
time she saw the need to provide the elderly with a more home-like environment
rather than the institutional appearance which dominated at that time. Since then Aged Care
Interiors has specialised in agedcare design fit-outs and refurbishments.
ACI'S focus is aimed at providing aged care interiors which not only are
aesthetic but also practical to suit the high demands which are required in Aged Care
Facilities by the elderly residents.
