About Patrick Ferry House

Patrick Ferry House logo

The close proximity to Highgrove Retirement Village ensures that couples and community friends can stay together and remain connected, even when one of our residents requires a higher level of care.

True to our FAMILY FIRST ethos, the Highgrove concept is designed to keep families and loved ones united. Patrick Ferry House Aged-Care Hospital is conveniently located just a short internal walk away from the independent living apartments.

Patrick Ferry House caters to a range of aged care needs, offering day care, respite care, rehabilitation and recovery, full rest home care, and palliative care. Our dedicated team of trained Registered Nurses and Healthcare Assistants provide the support needed while encouraging residents to maintain their dignity and independence as much as possible.

Our modern single-occupancy rooms are designed for comfort and functionality, creating a homely atmosphere. Each room is equipped with an emergency response system, providing residents with a sense of security and peace of mind. Rooms also feature a private ensuite and either access to our Mediterranean courtyard or a personal balcony.

Designed with family in mind, the hospital is closely connected to the independent living apartments, making it just a short internal walk away. Residents and their families can enjoy four comfortable lounges for socializing, participating in activities, or simply relaxing with a bit of TV. The courtyards right off the lounge offer a place to enjoy some fresh air. With a dining room and kitchenette on each floor, a cup of tea or coffee is always within reach.
