Lovely aged care facility, nice gardens, friendly staff, clean
Clean. Very friendly staff. Very well run. Very experienced nurses and staff.
Very well presented Aged Care Facility. Rooms are large and clean, staff are caring, professional and friendly. Staff ratio seems good. The residents seem well cared for and there are a lots of activities for them to engage in. In non-Covid times there are usually plenty of outings for the Residents but at the moment these are reduced. My mother has been a respite resident her main complaint was about the food, but she can be very fussy.😏
Strategically located. Very calm and spacious. Ample car parking space available for visitors and residents. Got all the essential amenities. Next to Golf course.
My aunty is living in one of the units and being cared for. She seems happy there and is looked after and cared for quite well. There was 4 light aircraft that flew over and were quite noisy as we were visiting in that hour. Nice location next to one of the golf fairways so outlook is scenic.
