Visitors with limitations - please call us first
The close proximity to Highgrove Retirement Village allows couples and community friends to remain together and connected, even when circumstances dictate a more intensive level of care is required for one of our residents.

Consistent with our FAMILY FIRST ethos, the Highgrove concept is all about keeping family and loved ones together. Patrick Ferry House Aged-Care Hospital was designed to be closely connected with the independent living apartments – literally just a short internal walk away.

Patrick Ferry House provides a range of aged care needs. We offer: day, respite, rehabilitation & recovery, full rest home and palliative care. Our team of trained Registered Nurses and Healthcare Assistants provide support when required while always encouraging our residents to maintain their dignity and independence as much as possible.

Our single occupancy rooms are modern in function and are designed to make you feel more at home. They are equipped with emergency response systems to ensure you feel a sense of comfort and security. Each room has a private ensuite and access to either our Mediterranean courtyard or an individual balcony.

Designed to keep family and loved ones together, the hospital is closely connected with the independent living apartments – literally just a short internal walk away. We provide four comfortable lounges for use by our residents and their families. You can enjoy time with company, participate in some activities or relax with a bit of TV. You can even get a breath of fresh air in the courtyards right off the lounge. With a dining room and kitchenette on each floor of the hospital, a cup of tea or coffee is always close at hand.
