Household Living – our innovative approach to care – empowers you to live your day, your way, just as you would in any family home.
Uniting Thomas Roseby Lodge Marrickville has 41 residents across 2 households. Your Uniting Homemaker ensures that the community is thriving and doing things that are meaningful and enjoyable.
You'll have round-the-clock support to help manage your health, medication and personal care needs. There's a Registered Nurse on site daily, and a range of allied health professionals can address specific needs.
It’s a big decision, but sometimes, moving into an aged care home is the best way to get the help and support you need.
We think of ourselves as part of your extended family, working together to create a loving, caring and supportive environment – so you can settle in easier and feel right at home.
Keep in mind that there can be a waitlist for a place, so we recommend planning in advance. Need a place immediately? Get in touch.
Our respite care is all about improving the wellbeing of both carers and their loved ones.
For carers, you’ll have less stress knowing your loved ones are in expert hands, and more time to relax or get things done. Self-care, by taking time out just for you, is so important for your health, and increases your energy and patience to care for others.
For respite residents, you’ll enjoy a change of scene and appreciate the community that’s central to every Uniting aged care home. Your social and emotional wellbeing is nurtured through stimulating recreational activities and engaging conversations with other residents and our caring team.
A week or two of respite with us is also a good way to experience what our home is like before moving in.
Availability varies, so please get in touch to find out how we can help.
