Capecare CEO Tim Nayton featured on Pioneers of Aged Care podcast
Capecare CEO Tim Nayton has recently been featured on the Pioneers of Aged Care podcast, hosted by Anthony Nguyen, sharing insights into Capecare’s journey, values and future direction.
In the wide-ranging conversation, Tim reflects on Capecare’s 60+ year history as a community-based, not-for-profit aged care provider in the Busselton–Dunsborough region, and the organisation’s strong focus on giving back to the community it serves.
Tim speaks about the significant progress made over the past 12 months, including reaching full capacity at the Dunsborough residential aged care facility, expanding services at Busselton, and welcoming 100 new team members during a challenging period for the sector. He highlights the importance of purpose, culture and community connection in attracting and retaining a skilled workforce in regional aged care.
The podcast also explores how aged care is evolving — becoming increasingly complex, multidisciplinary and clinically skilled — and challenges outdated perceptions of the sector, particularly for allied health professionals.
Looking ahead, Tim outlines Capecare’s strategic priorities, including expanding Support at Home services, strengthening partnerships across the local health system, and progressing the long-term Busselton Master Plan — a generational opportunity to shape the future of the beachfront campus to meet the community’s needs over the coming decades.
The interview offers a thoughtful insight into Capecare’s role in the region and the people and purpose driving its future.
