Enquire today about our respite care and day programme. We offer respite care and day programmes to give carers a much-needed break, while at the same time providing residents with care and companionship.
We are a friendly, caring community. Become part of our Riverside family and be cared for by our wonderful staff, whilst making new friends and learning new activities.
When it comes to everyday life, Riverside makes it easy with rest home, hospital, day programme, respite and dementia care, so if your health needs change, we can care for you now and into the future.
Light, bright and welcoming, Riverside is set amongst beautifully landscaped gardens, just a hop, skip and jump from the Merrilands township where you’ll find all the essentials such as a pharmacy and library.
At Heritage Lifecare, our homes reflect the residents who choose us, the local communities around us and the people that support and work for us. You are at home with us. Contact us today to talk through your needs.
