Opened in 2006, it offers exceptional resident comfort and security. The rooms are light and airy, with individual controlled air-conditioning and heat lamps in the ensuites.
So that family can easily stay in touch, each resident has access to the connection of a telephone. They also have a wall mounted LCD television which is individually controlled from the bedside handset.

Lounge and dining areas on each floor have a lovely garden outlook, and also overlook our central atrium which has a sensor controlled covering so it can be used even on wet days.
On the ground floor, residents can see the chef and staff at work through the kitchen window. This on-site kitchen provides meals and snacks using the most modern equipment and procedures. Residents have a choice of meals that are freshly prepared.
The Centre offers therapy and recreational facilities. Each day of the week offers new and varied activities ranging from in-house fitness and craft classes, through to taking residents out to community events and activities. Hairdressers visit on a regular basis and newspapers are delivered daily. Massage, aromatherapy and other natural therapies are also available.

Fees and Accommodation Payments -from July 2014
Moving into an aged care home may require payments or refundable deposits, as well as ongoing fees for your care, accommodation and daily living expenses. How much you pay depends on your financial situation. However, there are strong protections in place to make sure that care is affordable for everyone.
At Columbia Aged Care, we welcome all prospective residents no matter your financial situation.
The government sets the basic daily fee which contributes towards the cost of supplying services such as meals, laundry, linen and electricity. You may also pay an income support payment, if you have income above the capped pensioner income amounts. This is determined through the Department of Social Services through an income and asset test. This co-payment will be known as a means tested care fee and will contribute towards the costs of nursing and personal care services.
Accommodation payments are determined based on a persons level of asset and income. An assessment may be carried out through the Department of Social Services to determine whether a person is exempt from paying such a payment. It is essential that this assessment is carried out prior to entering residential care to ensure your accommodation payment is calculated based on your personal financial situation.
Columbia Aged Care offers four categories of accommodation payments depending on the room facilities. See our accommodation pricing and please contact us to talk through your care options.
