Hard working staff who looked after both my parents. Clean bright home with a number of large rooms with a great view of th e river. Both patents spent their final days here and were well looked after. They never knew when I was coming to visit, the place was always clean and tidy. One day mum had a fall, and the staff worked so hard to make certain she was ok. No one saw her fall, but the staff certainly got active about looking after her. This is the sort of place I would like to spent my final days if I could not be safe at home.

Given the reason for our visit to Huon Eldercare was due to some less than desirable circumstances, I have to say that the staff were delightful and seemed to genuinely care, that was across all levels of staff that we met.
