A 15th resident has died after contracting coronavirus at the Newmarch House aged care facility in Western Sydney.
In a statement, the nursing home's operator Anglicare Sydney said the resident had no immediate family and was "well cared for by the dedicated staff of Newmarch House".
"His passing highlights how terrible this virus is and how devastating it is for the elderly in our community," Anglicare said.
Anglicare Sydney did not specify the man's age.
In Australia, 96 people have now died from the virus.
Newmarch House became the country's second biggest cluster of coronavirus deaths after a nurse unintentionally caused an outbreak at the facility.
She worked six consecutive shifts with mild coronavirus symptoms before returning a positive result.
Last week Anglicare CEO Grant Millard said the nurse was being provided with counselling.
The latest number of infections at the home is 63, with 37 residents and 26 staff infected by the virus.
An infection control specialist is on site at Newmarch House this week to review all contamination procedures.
Last week Premier Gladys Berejiklian said the situation at Newmarch House was "unacceptable" and NSW Chief Medical Officer Kerry Chant on Sunday said there had been failures in infection-control protocols at the facility.
"We're looking at secondary cases and we've clearly seen transmission that, on the surface, looks like there's been breaches of infection control, particularly among the staff," she said.
Anglicare CEO Grant Millard previously told the ABC the aged care home had become a "pseudo-hospital" since the outbreak began.
He said ventilators were being used when care plans permitted and staff were working 12-hour shifts to provide complete care.
Four staff members tested positive to COVID-19 over the weekend, two who were experienced in disease outbreaks.
Anglicare said it was discussing alternative accommodation options for residents who have tested negative to COVID-19.
Relatives of residents have expressed frustration that their loved ones were "sitting ducks" unless they were moved out.
Only 23 residential care facilities in Australia have had outbreaks of coronavirus, 15 of which are now free of the virus.
The Federal Government has given aged care facilities more than $850 million to help them deal with the pandemic.
