Audit Report

At Alden, we exist to ensure that everyone, regardless of their means or background, has access to trusted and compassionate retirement living and aged care when they need it. Respite care provides support for carers and enables them to take a break from those important caring responsibilities.

It also gives those who you are caring for the opportunity to engage in new activities and meet new people. Respite services are offered for all levels of care, including hospital, dementia and palliative. Take a break knowing that your loved one is in extremely capable hands.

Our facilities offer a lively activities programme, designed to keep residents engaged, active, and connected. From social gatherings and entertainment to creative pursuits and wellness activities, there's something for everyone to enjoy. Whether you're looking to try something new or revisit an old hobby, our activities program is the perfect way to meet new people and make friends.

At Alden, we exist to ensure that everyone, regardless of their means or background, has access to trusted and compassionate retirement living and aged care when they need it. Palliative care teams are made up of doctors, nurses, and other professional medical caregivers, often at the facility where a resident will receive treatment.

Our clinical staff will administer or oversee most of the ongoing comfort and care residents receive. Our facilities are associated with a palliative care team working with the local hospice who provide guidance and support.
