Our Brisbane residential lodge is large, with 182 beds and 7 respite places, but it feels like home. Our residents have their own rooms, with their own ensuite bathroom, as well as common social areas, everybody uses their first names and we encourage laughter and life. The facility is divided into smaller groups of roughly 30 beds, so that you have a tight community to spend your days with.
In May 2016 we formed a partnership with the Latin American Community of Australia (LACA) and we welcome the Spanish speaking community to our residential care facility.
We have peaceful courtyards to sit in or walk around, and our Lifestyle Team organises group activities, concerts and the like, for entertainment and engagement.
As our name suggests, our origin was in Dutch aged care, and we still like to celebrate Dutch national holidays, such as Sinterklaas, or our weekly Happy Hour, featuring an ‘advocaatje met slagroom’, mostly because it’s a chance to party.
