Seniors Feature: November 2020

Here is your Seniors’ living guide to some of the best aged care facilities and services across the Hunter Region. You can also check out this Seniors Feature from page 16 in our 5 November edition.


Southern Cross Care

Helen Armstrong is Facility Manager at the Southern Cross Care Mawson Court care home at Caves Beach.

She, and her staff, know the importance of putting the person at the centre of care.

“We support residents in maintaining their independence as much as possible,” Helen says. “This has a positive impact on them, both in terms of their physical and mental wellbeing.”

The benefits of residential care for residents include an onsite care team and registered nurses, who can be familiar with your individual care needs; assistance from trained and qualified professionals; access to the medication, services and equipment you require; and, of course, having a good home cooked meal.

Amelia Grey is Deputy Facility Manager and a familiar face in the care home and in the community.

“I love how we care for residents and help them to live well. It’s a welcoming environment and a happy home for residents and staff,” Amelia says.

If you would like more information about Mawson Court, you can call (02) 4971 0852.

Latitude One – Ingenia Lifestyle

Since the first residents moved into Latitude One by Ingenia Lifestyle in mid-2018, the Port Stephens community has since announced its 200th settlement as downsizers continue to snap up homes within the community.

The median price for a three-bedroom home in the local Nelson Bay area sits at $642,500, while downsizers can purchase their home at Ingenia Lifestyle from just $499,000, making this retirement option popular amongst downsizers. The 270-home

Latitude One community has seen a rapid increase in interest, with 90% of houses already sold out and less than 20 homes remaining to be released.
