locations. The proportion of facilities with a positive Facility EBITDA prpa declined as remoteness increased. The scale of the facilities varied across regional locations, with outer regional locations having the highest average number of beds per facility. In each location, higher average occupancy levels were linked with a positive Facility EBITDA prpa, and in comparison, facilities with lower average occupancy levels were linked with a negative Facility EBITDA prpa. Average occupancy levels were lower in outer regional locations (77.6%), with facilities in remote and very remote locations maintaining a higher occupancy level (82.5%). The average facility scale (number of beds per facility) was similar across the outer regional and remote and very remote locations, being 34 and 33 beds respectively for facilities that achieved a negative facility EBITDA.
