The Helen MacPherson Smith Wing is an 8 place facility caring for people with special needs including those living with dementia.
The Home operates on the premice that residents do not come to live in Koraleigh by choice rather out of necessity for 24 hour care. In order to assist residents and families in the transition from home to care several meetings are held including visiting the prospective resident at home to establish a rapport and collaboratively plan for the residents care and admission to the home. Care and services provided are based on the principles of person centred care and provision of a supportive social and physical living and working environment.
