POWER OF ATTORNEY

	Know all by these presents, that Richard I. Gilchrist ("Principal") hereby
constitutes and appoints each of Abdo H. Khoury, William Wagner and Jody Goan, or any of
them signing singly, and with full power of substitution, Principal's true and lawful attorney-in-
fact to:

	(1)	prepare, execute in Principal's name and on Principal's behalf, and submit
to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") a Form ID, including amendments
thereto, and any other documents necessary or appropriate to obtain codes and passwords
enabling Principal to make electronic filings with the SEC of reports required by Section 16(a) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any rule or regulation of the SEC promulgated
thereunder;

	(2) 	execute for and on behalf of the undersigned, in Principal's capacity as a
director of Nationwide Health Properties, Inc. (the "Company"), Forms 3, 4, and 5 in accordance
with Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules thereunder;

	(3) 	do and perform any and all acts for and on behalf of Principal which may
be necessary or desirable to complete and execute any such Form 3, 4, or 5, complete and
execute any amendment or amendments thereto, and file such form with the SEC and any stock
exchange or similar authority; and

	(4) 	take any other action of any type whatsoever in connection with the
foregoing which, in the opinion of such attorney-in-fact, may be of benefit to, in the best interest
of, or legally required by, Principal, it being understood that the documents executed by such
attorney-in-fact on behalf of Principal pursuant to this Power of Attorney shall be in such form
and shall contain such terms and conditions as such attorney-in-fact may approve in such
attorney-in-fact's discretion.

	Principal hereby grants to each such attorney-in-fact full power and authority to
do and perform any and every act and thing whatsoever requisite, necessary, or proper to be done
in the exercise of any of the rights and powers herein granted, as fully to all intents and purposes
as Principal might or could do if personally present, with full power of substitution or revocation,
hereby ratifying and confirming all that such attorney-in-fact , or such attorney-in-fact's
substitute or substitutes, shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this power of attorney
and the rights and powers herein granted. Principal acknowledges that each such attorney-in-fact,
in serving in such capacity at the request of Principal, is not assuming, nor is the Company
assuming any of Principal's responsibilities to comply with Section 16 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.

	This Power of Attorney shall remain in full force and effect until Principal is no
longer required to file Forms 3, 4, and 5 with respect to Principal's holdings of and transactions
in securities issued by the Company, unless earlier revoked by Principal in a signed writing
delivered to either of the foregoing attorneys-in-fact.  This Power of Attorney does not revoke or
replace any other power of attorney that Principal has previously granted.
