The Anglican Bishop of Newcastle has admitted Anglican Care "failed" the residents of its Storm Village aged care home in Taree, after the facility was sanctioned late last month for serious compliance issues.
In an email to the Newcastle Anglican community, Peter Stuart said he and the diocesan chief executive were "devastated" to have received a Risk Escalation and Sanctions Notice from the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission, after an unannounced site audit in late January.
