Outstanding Aged Care & Retirement Living
At Christadelphian Aged Care we go beyond providing exceptional 24-hour nursing care for the aged in our community, and outstanding retirement living. Our mission is to cater for the emotional and spiritual needs of everyone in our care. All our residents have lived incredible lives, and with the assistance and encouragement of our health, lifestyle and care teams, they are continuing their story with us. As a charitable, not-for-profit organisation all surplus funds are reinvested back into caring for our residents and facilities. The Christadelphians are a Bible-based community, and we believe that by caring for the aged and frail we are demonstrating Jesus Christ’s love, mercy and compassion in a practical way.
