Sad place. No laughter, joy or fun. My Aunty was incredibly lonely there as the majority are dementia patients
It’s very depressing at karingal. It’s basically a dementia home, not a place for able minded residents. They need a dementia unit badly
At over $800 a fortnight the service at Karingal is only worth $200 a fortnight
There’s no life in the place. It’s depressing there.
Very helpful and patient.
