Discover Homewood’s high level specialised care
We pride ourselves on providing the best clinical care for Sydney's residents
Homewood provides 24 hour nursing care
We provide full assistance for 82 residents across two floors who need 24-hour nursing care. A Registered Nurse is available 24-hours and is supported by a team of qualified nurses, carers and health professionals.
We partner with a geriatrician, aged care nurse practitioner, and care nurse specialists. Residents also have access to the services of the geriatric flying squad at St George Hospital that complements our medical and nursing services. The squad focuses on ‘hospital admission avoidance’ by assessing if there is the need for the resident to go to hospital or if this can be avoided with treatment at Homewood in the comfort of the resident’s familiar environment (their home).
Several local doctors, who specialise in aged care, visit regularly to provide quality medical support.
We provide an individualised, respectful family-oriented approach to:
End of Life care (Palliative Care)
Dementia Care
Enteral Feeding (tube)
Oxygen Therapy
Catheter Care
Pain Management
Wound Management
World Class Care
Residents are encouraged to bring their soft furnishings and special, personal items that they treasure to give their room their personal touch.
For an additional daily fee, residents in Single Rooms can enjoy the added value and benefits of
Homewood Club which provides the many superior comforts of various lifestyle activities, in-room entertainment, dining, personal equipment and services.

Physiotherapy & Activity Programs
The physical and mental wellbeing of each person is at the heart of our care. Our memory support program is designed to sharpen the mind and our Physiotherapy service assists to enhance mobility and muscle strengthening and reduce the risk of falls.
Regular exercise programs get our residents ‘moving & grooving’.
Our activity programs focus on engaging individual and group social experiences, where possible involving family and friends. We are involved in the local community and residents enjoy the frequent bus trips to cafes and restaurants for coffee and lunch at the local clubs.
Children’s groups provide inter-generational activities which are loved by all.
Residents look forward to the regular Pet therapy sessions with PAWS.
