My first steps at Allity Walkerville made me feel at home and loved. The facility is fully equipped, spacious and tidy. The staff is friendly and experienced, taking care of the residents thoughtfully. This is really an ideal place for your loved ones!
We would like to say thank you to all the staff who cared for our mother at Walkerville. It is a difficult time we face when a parent transitions from their family home to aged care. Covid added another layer to the challenge. To the Staff, from the gorgeous girls at reception, the nurses, every day carers & the lady in the coffee shop, we thank you for your lovely smiles, helpfulness & most importantly the kindness and care given. And of course theres Simon, the leader of the pack. You were wonderful, and we thank you.
My great aunt was a resident at Walkerville and passed away this year. Our family will be forever grateful for the care and support given. The team led by Simon with Jason, Shontell and the front staff team are stellar along with the nursing staff and carers. My aunt loved the food and all the lifestyle activities and was kept really active and social for her time there. Walkerville is a very caring home that delivers their best.
Not a very good aged care centre there are many that are far better. Meals are not cooked on site as they do not have a cook there food is bought in from an outside facility then reheated. As with all aged care centres consider very carefully before choosing to go into one as they are mostly all about huge profits and not much about care. Food and care budgets are very small and it is very unlikely you will get the care expected and the types of meals you would expect or want.
I did a delivery here. Met the rudest piece of rubbish at the door. Made others visiting while I was there feel very unwelcome. I'd never send my family there after that. Next time your delivery will be dumped in the middle of North East road you P.O.S. Speak to me like that amounts to a flogging in my books mate !
