Residential Aged Care

Our aged care facilities offer a warm, home-like environment with expert care and services, providing comfort, connection, and specialised support for residents, including those needing dementia care.

Trusted to be there.

Our Approach to Care

Our standards of care are lived through the philosophy and principles of our Rhythm of Life care model – embracing the power of person-centred care. This means that the care each resident receives is tailored to their health, spiritual, social and individual needs, interests and passions.

Our Care Team meets with residents, families and other healthcare practitioners regularly to develop and review individual care plans, ensuring a high quality of care is provided to each resident.

We offer services including:

  • Dementia support including specialist accommodation and life-enrichment programs
  • 24-hour registered nurse support
  • Visiting doctors and allied health professionals such as a physiotherapist, podiatrist, dentist, audiologist, speech therapist and dietitian.

We pride ourselves in delivering a high standard of care in line with the Aged Care Quality Standards set by the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission, with feedback and outcomes regularly monitored to ensure we continually improve our services and meet your expectations.

Your Lifestyle

Residents living in our residential aged care homes are encouraged to socialise and build meaningful relationships. Engaging in group activities, events and assisted outings, improve residents’ overall wellbeing, promotes social connections and a sense of community and belonging.

Our residential homes feature: 

  • Dining rooms where residents can enjoy chef-prepared home cooked meals in a homely setting with friends, 
  • Libraries
  • Fitness areas
  • Landscaped gardens
  • Group activities organised by our lifestyle teams
  • Specialist dementia care 

There’s always plenty to keep residents physically, mentally and socially active and engaged in their interests, in a supportive homely environment.

Are you eligible for a Residential Aged Care subsidy?

When considering residential aged care, it’s important to understand the funding options available so you can make the choice that’s right for you or your loved one.

To find out if you’re eligible for residential aged care funding from the Australian Government, you’ll need an Aged Care Assessment Team (ACAT) assessment.

Step 1

Contact my aged care

Contact My Aged Care on 1800 200 422 or visit myagedcare.gov.au to register and organise an ACAT assessment. 

An ACAT assessment will help determine your eligibility for funding towards the cost of residential aged care. 

During this stage, we recommend visiting residential aged care homes and making a shortlist of your preferred homes.

Step 2

Calculate Any Contributions

To ensure you feel confident about the financial component of your care, it’s important to understand the various payment options and subsidies available.

If you’re searching for a permanent home, you’ll need to complete a financial assessment with Services Australia to find out your required contribution towards accommodation costs.

Step 3

Find Your Home

Choosing your new home can be a challenging decision. Our team is here to guide you through the process.

To arrange a tour of any of our residential aged care homes, simply call us on 1300 610 610. We’ll take the time to discuss your unique care needs and explore how we can support your overall wellbeing.

Even if you’re not ready to move, now is an ideal time to consider adding your name to the waitlist of your preferred home. This will help increase your chances of securing a spot when the time is right.

Step 4

Apply for Admission

Once your ACAT assessment is complete and you’ve chosen your preferred home, submit your application for entry into residential care.

Contact the friendly Anglicare admissions teams on 1300 610 610 and we will assist you throughout the admissions process.

Before signing an agreement, we recommend  seeking independent advice from an aged care financial advisor specialist to ensure you access the best payment options and arrangements.

Step 5

Move in 

We’ll work closely with you and your family to move and settle you into your new Anglicare home. 

Our team will ensure that your home provides you with the services and activities that are a fit with your needs, abilities and interests.

Residential Aged Care Funding

Navigating the costs of residential aged care can feel overwhelming, but there is government support available to help make care more accessible, and our team is here to help guide you through the process. Depending on your financial situation, you may be eligible for subsidies through My Aged Care, which can contribute to accommodation and care costs. If you’re considering permanent care, dementia support, or respite care, our team is here to help you understand your options and ensure you receive the support that best suits your needs.
