MiHaven wins at the 2024 HIA Awards in Cairns

MiHaven's Specialist Disability Accommodation development showcases cutting-edge design and construction tailored for accessibility and comfort. The two-storey apartments feature a wireless 4G nurse call system, NDIS-approved elevator, and QFES-approved fire sprinklers, ensuring top-tier safety and support. The exterior stonework, crafted from locally sourced materials, adds a stylish aesthetic while maintaining functionality. Despite challenging conditions like high-water tables and P-class soil, the team implemented innovative solutions, such as mass concrete piers and a non-return valve system, to ensure the building's stability and longevity. This project sets a new benchmark for inclusive, high-quality disability accommodation, blending style with superior support and care facilities.

MiHaven launches Cairns' first Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) Apartments

MiHaven Care’s new Specialist Disability Accommodation (SDA) project at 189-191 Swallow Street will represent Cairns’ inaugural apartment complex with two dwellings housing 1-and 2-bedroom apartments. This unique property also provides tenants requiring High Physical Support (HPS), Improved Liveability (IL) or Fully Accessible (FA) accommodation with a concierge-supported model of care. Concierge support involves the provision of 24-hour on-site shared support by a single Supported Independent Living (SIL) provider, who resides in a separate apartment.

To date, MiHaven Care has successfully accommodated over 47 individuals in 32 MiHaven residences. The commitment to invest $25 million to develop and manage 46 SDA homes over the forthcoming 3-5 years solidifies MiHaven Care's position as a paramount disability housing provider in the Far North region.
