This is the third nursing home my mum has been in, and it is by far the best. Mum has Alzheimer's and can get quite agitated, but the staff there are brilliant at knowing what to do.
As PCA I had good experience and shift with kind team...the place is beautiful clean and organised..UAW is much better than Blucross..
Looking for an aged care option for a loved one is not easy, but, after the facility tour and guidance from Kris my decision was easy. All the staff from Reception to the floor personnel are so friendly and always greet you with a smile and a cheerful ‘hello’. I have no hesitation is recommending them and openly wish to say ‘thank you’. Elaine
