Anglicare Mary Andrews

Mary Andrews is located in South Hurstville, close to parks and public transport and adjacent to Anglicare’s retirement living village. A well-established home, Mary Andrews is home to a close-knit community of 50 residents. Situated on a major bus route, it is also within walking distance of local shops.

Constructed over two levels, person-centred care is at the forefront of this home’s design with private en suite bathrooms, care within dedicated groups and space for respite and palliative care. As residents need change, we strive to enable them to ‘age in place’, receiving ongoing care without the need to change rooms.

Mary Andrews has a dedicated lifestyle team to provide regular activities for residents. This team also facilitates our Rhythm of Life® program, giving residents a choice in how they spend their day from meals to activities, outings and more.
