Glen Lynn is one of our smallest homes, providing specialised care in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Originally a hospital dating back to 1910, Glen Lynn now provides general nursing care for aged care residents and specialised care for those with more complex needs. This includes:
We employ registered nurses with particular expertise in tracheostomy management. We provide expert care of the tracheostomy site, and also address any dif'culty associated with speech and feeding.
Support for people who have poor control of swallowing muscles and need to be fed via a percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy (PEG). These symptoms can be common after a stroke.
Specialty care to residents requiring peritoneal dialysis for the management of severe kidney disease.
Care for some younger residents with acquired brain injuries.
To meet the rehabilitative needs of our residents, our physiotherapist and aide provide tailored programs of gentle exercise and physical act
