Allambi
Allambi was extensively renovated and expanded in 2016 to provide state-of-the-art residential aged care. Resident rooms are modern and there are a range of communal spaces, both intimate and large, to support a wide range of activities.
Overview
All residents in Allambi have a single room with ensuite bathroom and access to communal living and dining areas and lovely gardens. Some rooms are in the support unit which provides specialised assistance to residents living with dementia. It includes secure courtyard gardens.
Residents can spend time in our café, courtyards, outdoor entertaining and BBQ areas and extensive gardens which include outdoor seating; all great spaces to enjoy with family and friends.
All food is cooked on-site daily by our chef with two courses served for the lunch and evening meals. Special events can be celebrated on-site with the hospitality team available to provide catering at an additional cost. There are private spaces that may be available for these occasions.
There is a varied social program that residents can choose to participate in including crafts, games and physical activities. Our physiotherapist supervises the on-site gym which features specially designed equipment for building strength, increasing fitness and improving or maintaining mobility. Health professionals visit regularly, including speech pathologists, podiatrists, dentists and local medical specialists can visit upon request.
Residents can get their hair done in a dedicated hairdressing salon with services available Monday to Friday at additional cost.
