Warrigal is a community owned organisation focused on creating inspiring communities for older people. Warrigal was formed by volunteers in 1964, with the first care home opening at Mt. Warrigal in 1968.
Our philosophy of choice is built upon 4 key themes - Independence, Respect, Happiness and feeling Connected, most importantly we provide places where people can just be themselves.
At Warrigal we are committed to older people having a choice and we support those who are financially disadvantaged wherever possible. Our financially supported resident ratios are well above the required government regional requirements which are generally 21%, at Warrigal our ratio usually stands at around 40%. This means that we provide the highest possible quality of care to all people with an assessed need, regardless of their financial circumstances.
