Calvary Cessnock Retirement Community is surrounded by the beautiful Hunter Valley Wine Region. Located across two Residential Care sites, Calvary has served the Cessnock and Coalfields communities for more than 55 years. Calvary are recognised as a continuing source of healing, hope and nurturing to the residents we serve. All of our care is delivered by dedicated and experienced staff. We live to provide our care with dignity and to improve the health and wellbeing of every resident.
With some units that have direct access to the extensive grounds and courtyard gardens, Calvary Cessnock Retirement Community is a picture perfect place to live a relaxed and secure lifestyle. Our residence provides you with opportunity to find both quiet moments for yourself or to participate in the active social calendar. We organise regular social outings to local venues or host entertainment and activities in our auditorium. Our residents are also keen gardeners and can often be found in the veggie patch.
Guided by Calvary’s 135 year history in health care, you will have peace of mind with access to quality care. With light-filled living spaces and beautifully landscaped grounds, now is the perfect time to be welcomed into this caring and close-knit community. We take the time to get to know you, to understand your medical concerns and to make sure we meet your physical, social, emotional and spiritual needs. We work tirelessly to ensure all residents feel part of a nurturing and welcoming community by delivering a perfect blend of support and independence.

Respite accommodation provides support for you and your carer.
Residential Respite Care can provide your carer with a break. It may give them time to manage work commitments, handle family responsibilities, enjoy a weekend away or have an extended holiday.
It is also a good way to see if a Residential Care Facility is the right fit for you. Our respite accommodation gives you an opportunity to experience our wonderful care and friendly community before you make a formal commitment.
Please call 1800 052 222 and speak to Commonwealth Respite and Carelink Centre – Hunter
You can be entitled up to 9 weeks of Respite Accommodation per financial year.
