St Vincent’s Respite Care. The home is very clean and the staff are polite, caring and very accommodating. I would have no hesitation recommending.
Very caring facility. Dad has been there for a month since leaving Aspley Aged Care and already noticed a huge improvement. We are excited about seeing dad and hearing about his day.
My grandfather passed away this Friday just gone. When we contacted the priest at this care facility father Chris Hanlon his exact words were "It is my day off I'm not coming besides he is already dead so what is the point" My grandmother who is still a resident there has also not been contacted to seen by anyone from pastoral care even though we have called several times and the management is well aware he passed and was a devout catholic. So much for Christian care and compassion
I have a few lovely old dears that I help with technology. It is so sad to see these people with not a lot to do and I always expect to be there longer than I expect and they love having a chat. I usually have a coffee and biscuit which makes the residents relax and able to understand what I am trying to teach
Was a bit shocked and frightened that when notified mid travel if I had to stop on the way home, not diverting any distance that I would be charged an extra leg. (as all the medication was prepared the stop would have taken no longer than 5 minutes total)for somebody that's really struggling financially it was just awful! The driver also I found aloof, rude, disinterested and not prepared to engage in any conversation whatsoever. Even though I have a severe limp and a cast on my arm he couldn't even get out of the car to open the door for me which I thought was very very disappointing indeed! Overall it was quite an uncomfortable experience and one I wouldn't partake in again.
