IT can be a big adjustment when moving to an aged care facility. What happens when one partner has greater care needs than the other?
At both Adventist Aged Care’s Kings Langley and Wahroonga sites, our village facilities are designed to provide tailored care to meet both partner’s needs. From independent living, through to residential aged care and respite, we’ve got it all in the one village setting.
For Arthur and Cheryl Piper, this arrangement is exactly what was needed – it has allowed them to receive tailored care to match their different levels of independence.
‘Living here is good because you’re looked after. For me, up in the nursing home part, if I need something, I just call the nurse on a buzzer and there comes the nurse’, said Cheryl. ‘They’re all friendly, and know your name, and it’s really quite good.
Arthur feels the same. ‘This arrangement is so convenient. I was very impressed with it. Everybody’s very, very friendly, which I really like. I’m continually getting biscuits or cakes or something or other.’
At Adventist Aged Care, we prioritize your individual care to make sure you can stay close to your loved ones, no matter their needs.
