Ritcher Lodge

Ritcher Lodge has 45 places; all single rooms with private ensuite bathrooms and individual garden areas. The Lodge celebrated its 30th birthday in 2014. It is a unique Home for its era, as it is wheelchair friendly with many large and small communal lounge and dining areas with two internal gardens. All meals are prepared fresh daily on site. The Lodge was extensively renovated and refurbished in 2008 and remains a quiet ‘sleepy hollow’ with a cheerful ambience next to local Swan River parkland. Historically catering to elders who required a low level of care, the Lodge has nursing staff in place, as well as being well supported by two local General Medical Practitioners, who visit regularly.

Disclaimers

All information on this page - excluding Star Ratings, verified specialisations and Residents' Experience - is entered and maintained by Ritcher Lodge, who is responsible for ensuring the information is accurate, complete and up to date.

The Department of Health, Disability and Ageing assess the quality of care at all government-funded aged care homes. Based on these assessments, each home receives a Star Rating as a simple way of showing information about the quality of care they provide and how they compare to others. Read more about Star Ratings.

If you pay a refundable accommodation deposit or a refundable accommodation contribution, they may be subject to retention. Any daily accommodation payment you make may also be subject to indexation. Learn more about aged care home costs and fees.

Specialisations with a check mark symbol are verified by the Department of Health, Disability and Ageing. Each verification lasts for 3 years from the date it was granted. Once it expires, providers can apply again if they want to continue to be recognised for a specific specialisation on the Find a Provider tool.
