Testimonials
Testimonials
At Rose Lodge our residents are our purpose and treated like our family. Our philosophy is simple - to provide exceptional, family orientated care.

Delivered by a compassionate, experienced team who recognise the importance of independence, dignity, and choice, we value each resident for who they are and provide quality, individualised care.

With a dedicated team, most who have been with us for over 5 years and many over 15 years, the familiar faces provide continuity of care and allow our residents to build confidence and trust within our Rose Lodge family.

We welcome you to call in and meet our fabulous team and take time to view our home.


"Rose Lodge's team are happy and passionate about the care they give. The home is warm and inviting not clinical. Trust, Respect, Dignity and Integrity are not just words, but what Rose Lodge stand for. I would highly recommend Rose Lodge to anyone who has family member or someone in need of care." - Niki Pollard

Rose Lodge is a homely 14 bed, Stage 2 home that provides care for elderly with SNL of 2, 3, and 4.

Formerly a private home, we have retained many of the same features and advantages. Because we are small, we are able to form very close relationships with our residents.

Centrally located in Epsom and easily accessed by public transport, our home is set in a quality, peaceful suburban street. You are welcomed by our beautiful garden. We also have a vegie garden where residents are welcomed to work in if they would like to.

Our dedicated team are well trained, suitably qualified and professional, with on-going training something we all take very seriously. Most importantly though, we're all compassionate, empathetic people who cherish and care for our residents as our own family.

Our Code of Residents Rights and Responsibilities is designed to ensure Clients in our home live a quality life and have peace of mind knowing their individual rights and responsibilities, and what to do If they believe a right is violated.

RESIDENT CARE REVIEW:

It is important for us to regularly take time to discuss each Resident's progress with the Team. Every six months we hold a Resident Care Review. The Resident's support person (with the Resident's permission) or enduring power of Attorney is seen as an important part of this Team and is invited to attend. They are informal discussions to assist us to provide the best care possible. If the support person or enduring power of attorney is unable to attend, our manager or Registered Nurse will be happy to discuss progress with you.
