Terrible management. The supposed plague is no longer and they are pushing more bs than any other homes. Go to bupa or uniting care. Much better
I came here to get my COVID booster because everywhere else was 3 months delay and they were able to get me in within a day... everyone there was so nice and caring and very helpful.
Appreciated the effort of the staff in making space to celebrate a wedding there for a friend of a resident so they could be present.
My mother is a resident of TLC Homestead, the facilities and service are well above other facilities around Geelong. The staff are all highly motivated and ensure a safe caring environment.
My mother in law has been very well looked after during the Covid19 period. It has been a lonely time for the residents but the main thing is they have overall done a great job of looking after everyone.
