We take pride in our services, which specialise in providing residential aged care for all people, particularly those who are marginalised and homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless. We also have a tailored programs to uphold the wellbeing and dignity of our residents, to support them in leading a healthy and independent lifestyle.
James Barker House Aged Care Centre has 120 rooms spread over eight wings orbiting four nurses stations. With access to dining, lounge, living rooms, courtyards and a dedicated theatre for film screenings. Residents on the ground floor are dealing with issues related to alcohol, brain injury and mental illness.
Residents on the first floor have varying care needs and degrees of dependence, ranging from minimal support with personal care to those who are fully dependent, requiring full personal and nursing care.
We have created specialised procedures that cater for those persons whose lifestyle is adversely impacted by alcohol and tobacco usage. The house’s eight wings and four nursing stations enhance these programs, upholding the dignity of the individual.
