Aged Care Services

Guided by our 135-year history in health care, Calvary is recognised as a continuing source of healing, hope and nurturing to the residents we serve. We live to provide our care with dignity and to improve the health and wellbeing of every resident.

Our aged care services include both permanent aged care and residential respite options, with professional nursing staff operating round the clock and visits from specialist clinicians. Our experienced team takes 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.

Accommodation

Calvary St Francis is a single level residence with single occupancy bedrooms, each complete with their own private ensuites for the ultimate accessibility and comfort. When not resting in your room, you can relax in our extensive grounds or catch up with fellow residents and visitors in one of our light-filled communal living spaces.

Co-located Services: Retirement Living

We also share our location with St Francis Village, a secure retirement village for those seeking independent living with peace of mind that quality aged services are close by, should they be required.
