The Residents Experience rating shows what current residents at Catholic Healthcare Lewisham Retirement Hostel think of the food, staff, care and more. These ratings are from the 2024 Aged Care Quality Commission Survey.
My mother, Pearl, was a resident at the hostel for the final six months of her life, during which time she received wonderful care and respect from the doctor and all the staff, about whom I cannot speak highly enough. This is clearly a well-run establishment which places the interests and care of the residents as its first priority. I would have no hesitation in recommending it as an exceptional hostel.
