Regis to acquire four Queensland residential aged care facilities

Regis Healthcare Limited has signed an agreement to acquire privately owned residential aged care provider Rockpool RAC Holdings Pty Ltd, which was founded in 2016 and operates four facilities in South East Queensland — with 600 operational beds.

With 150 beds each, the facilities are: Morayfield (opened 2019), Carseldine (opened 2022) and Songbird Oxley (opened 2025) in Brisbane, and Pelican Waters (opened 2023) on the Sunshine Coast.

“We are excited to announce the acquisition of Rockpool, a highly regarded provider of residential aged care services in Queensland,” Regis’s Managing Director and CEO Dr Linda Mellors said. “This acquisition aligns with our strategy to broaden our residential aged care footprint through the acquisition of premium homes.

“I commend the founders for establishing such a high-quality business. We look forward to welcoming Rockpool’s residents, families, staff and communities to Regis and we are committed to ensuring a smooth and supportive transition.”

The acquisition, with an expected completion of 1 September 2025, increases Regis’s residential aged care portfolio to 72 facilities (100% freehold) — or approximately 8200 beds.

About the announcement, Rockpool CEO and Director Melissa Argent said:

“Rockpool and Regis have many common values, including the shared vision to change how aged care is offered in Australia. We are incredibly proud of what we have created, and I am confident Regis will continue to provide ongoing high levels of care and support for our team members, residents and their families.”
