We also understand the importance of family and friends and encourage them to be an integral part of our community.

Our staff and Chaplain go beyond the clinical to cater for the physical, emotional and spiritual wellbeing of our residents. Our Lifestyle team organise a dynamic program and try to create as many opportunities as possible to help our residents be active and live their best lives, where in which they can participate as much as they wish.

Feel right at home with our friendly, compassionate and qualified staff and our person-centred model of care.

Each staff member has undergone reference and security checks to ensure they are fully qualified, experienced and are passionate about working in the aged care sector. Our staff undergo ongoing training as well to make sure they are up to speed with the latest processes and knowledge. Emotional intelligence and sensitivity to diversity are other key factors that we take into consideration when recruiting staff into our Centre community.

Our approach to dementia care is led by each resident’s interests, feelings and emotions. We respect the rich lives they have led by tailoring our care based on their personal history in a dedicated dementia-friendly environment. 

We offer a range of affordable, spacious rooms with private and shared ensuites, with garden access, farmland views and plenty of natural light.

Each room has:

  • 24-hour emergency call system for added peace of mind
  • Telephone, TV and WiFi connections available
  • Built-in cupboards

This is your home, you are most welcome to bring in your own favourite items - photos, mementos and accessories to dress the room to your own taste and preferences. *

*All items must meet the Centre's work, health and safety guidelines. 

Meals are cooked daily onsite by a qualified chef in consultation with the dietician. The menu is regularly rotated to promote choice and take advantage of what is in season. Each meal has a selection of high protein, vegetarian and modified options. We also cater for special dietary and cultural requirements.
