Long term vacancyNo
Short term vacancyNo
Our brand new facility has recently opened Currently our Rest Home beds are fully occupied, however we welcome your coming to view our fabulous facility, and have just opened a waiting list.
We believe that the loveliest room in the Care Centre has to be our sun room off the lounge and dining room. It overlooks our bowling green, but has views over to the new Ormiston Bridge and works going on in the park areas off Chapel Road. It also has a fantastic view of incoming aeroplanes as they fly across the park. There is always someThing to see from here.
Our bedrooms all have built in shelving for displaying your precious items and photographs and a built in recess to take a flat screen TV of a fairly large size. Each of our spacious rooms have their own private ensuite,(toiltet, bathroom and shower) and this incurs an additional daily charge. This is not met by WINZ or the MOH subsidy. Please telephone our Nurse Manager for further information.
